"This past spring my brother and I went on our first smallmouth bass fishing trip on the Housatonic River with Spencer.  Spencer quickly put us on fish and displayed his skills as a guide.  We had a great trip and lot of laughs so I booked another trip for large mouth bass.  OMG!!!!  Spencer outshined himself and we must have caught over 40 fish.  It was an exceptional day of catching fish.  I highly recommend Berkshire Bass." - Bruce C.

 

 "Spencer was recommended to me by another guide who knew he was just the guy I was looking for. Plenty of smallmouths landed, several real beauties! Even a couple bonus pike. His knowledge of the river is beyond impressive, and the trip is all about the client. I never once even put on my own bait. Can’t recommend him enough!!" - Gerry H

​

"My 14 year old son & I did a 6-hour trip along the Housatonic River with Spencer yesterday. What a great day! Extremely knowledgeable on where the best smallie hang outs on the river are. We landed quite a haul. Would highly recommend for anyone looking a memorable fishing experience. We will be back!" - Troy W

​

"Fishing with Spencer on the Housatonic was a great experience. Spencer made sure to hit every spot up the river and gave us plenty of time to cast each spot without giving up on them. There were several times we’d pull up to a spot and cast several times with no bites, and without Spencer’s guidance i probably would’ve left those spots. But after continuing to cast under Spencer’s instruction we landed a bunch of good small mouth and even got a lucky pike. Overall great guide and great day on the water." - Jimmy K

"I can not give enough praise to Spencer for everything he did to make my day the best I’ve ever had.. I caught my personal best bass twice with a 8.3 and 7.1 lb bass. I’m glad I trusted him to put me on the lures and tackle needed to have a phenomenal time.. I will let everyone know especially my fellow veterans that Spencer had my six." - Ron H

​

"My son’s birthday request was to try and catch a pike! Berkshire Bass took him and his dad out for the day. The boys had such an awesome afternoon with Spencer. They caught so many fish and learned lots of good fishing tips. Highly recommend!" - Meaghan P

​

"What a great day! Went out on the river with Spencer and boy does he know what he is doing. He pointed out a spot to cast our lure and more often than not we got a bite right where said we would. We landed 14 fish in the boat and hooked another 6 or 7 that jumped off the hook before we could land them. Spencer did it all for us. Told us where to cast, tied on new lures, untangled our line, got us free when we snagged, and gave us tips on techniques. All this with patience and good humor. If you are thinking of doing this, don’t hesitate to give Berkshire Bass a try. You won’t be sorry." - Sandy S

 

"These dudes are solid ! Not many guides in the area that has it all in one package like Berkshire Bass. They have a SICK bass boat, tackle, and all the rods and reels you need to get into any fish. Spencer took us on the houstanic River for some Pike. They were finicky, got a bunch of chases right up to the boat which was exciting but couldn’t land any and get into the boat. He pivoted and we slammed a couple monster smallies. His energy was HUGE, he was more excited than we were!" - Joseph F 

 

"Spencer took 5 of us out on a fun introductory family morning where everyone got a lot of casting and caught a bunch of smallmouth and large mouth bass. It was just what we were looking for. Everything was straightforward." - Julia C
​

"Did a 4-hour small-mouth bass fishing trip with my 11-year-old daughter and we had a blast. Since we are inexperienced anglers, Spencer (our guide) showed us everything from how to cast to how to not get our lines stuck. Since we were there for fun, he scouted a few locations along the river where it was easy to get bites and we ended up catching a lot of smallmouth and rock bass. The highlight of the day was when my daughter hooked a 10-12 lb Pike, and Spencer helped her reel it in and land it in a net. Tons of fun - would highly recommend!" - Andy M​

​

"Spencer was great! He had a lot of knowledge and was patient with my young boys and extremely helpful! We caught a bunch of fish and had an amazing time. We have a memory of a lifetime and it is appreciated. Highly recommend." - John P​​

 

"What a day on the water! Spencer was a phenomenal guide. He was punctual and extremely prepared for the trip. He takes into account skill level and never gets flustered with the inevitable snags and various mishaps that occur during the trip. All you need to do is catch fish! I wouldn’t hesitate one second to recommend him to friends and family and will certainly return mysef."- Todd S

"We used Spencer for our annual office fishing trip - 6 of us fishing on 3 boats. He kept us on fish all day and even put together a tournament for us. We had a ton of fun learning how to fish ned rigs, swimbaits, and exploring the Housatonic. Highly recommend, we will be back!" - Will F
