Experience is the difference.

Gerald Scholl, Head Guide & Owner
As most guides would agree, success doesn't come by instinct alone (though it never hurts). But experience is the difference maker. And with over a decade of experience fishing the big waters of Lake Tahoe, Gerald has parlayed his experience into some substantial success. Gerald's outgoing personality, tireless work ethic, and devotion to sportfishing started early—long before he first wet a line in the Lake Tahoe area. By age 15, he'd signed on with the overnight boats in San Diego where he logged more than 7 years in preparation for his leap into the ranks of the long-range fleet. The next 6 years, he crewed for the Royal Polaris and American Angler, fishing deep into Mexican coordinates. These long hours on the water presented Gerald with the privilege of testing for and earning his 100 Ton U.S. Coast Guard Master Mariners License. But he didn't stop there. Other accreditations include: Nevada Master Guides License; California Fish & Game Guides License.
