A core group of fishing guides on O.H. Ivie specialize at targeting big bass, most by using forward-facing sonar. The technology allows for sniffing out fish that are suspended over deep water and seeing how they react to bait presentations in real time.

Fishing guides Jason Conn, Josh Jones, Brett Cannon, Brady Stanford, Kyle Hall, Dalton Smith, Hill Country Hammer, Wendell Ramsey and Brandon Burks usually net up dozens of ‘Ivie whoppers during the Spring and throughout the year!

Landing a guided trip with them will be in high demand- get with them today.
