Meet The fishing guides in Nashville TN

BRIAN HOLLOWAY

Captain Brian Holloway grew up in Athens, Georgia, with a fishing pole in his hand. Over the years, his passion for saltwater fishing never waned. After moving to Middle Tennessee in 2010, he quickly discovered a new love for hybrid and striped bass fishing. The similarity to saltwater fishing fueled his drive to master targeting these fish. Since then, he has built a reputation as one of the best and most consistent guides in the area. His daily presence on the water ensures that our clients are always catching fish.

BRIAN SCHNEIDER 

Brian Schneider's fishing journey began on the serene banks of Sacramento's Rio Vista and San Joaquin river systems, where he honed his skills with Striper and Sturgeon. This passion evolved into expertise, making him a respected guide for salmon and steelhead in Oregon from 1997 to 2009. In 2001, Brian expanded his horizons to the wild waters of Sitka, Alaska. Over a decade, he mastered the Gulf of Alaska's challenges, excelling in salmon and halibut fishing. Moving to Tennessee in 2009, he dominated fishing tournaments, earning the Fisherman of the Year title three times and winning the Elite Tournament's Fish Off an impressive three times.

BUCKMAXX JOSH

Josh began his fishing career on the waters of Northern Indiana, where he specialized in Bass, Catfish, and Pike. After relocating to Tennessee in 2011, he continued to expand his expertise and has since become an accomplished multi-species angler. Passionate about helping others enjoy the sport, Josh eagerly shares his knowledge with everyone who steps aboard his boat. In addition to being a licensed paramedic and avid hunter, he owns BuckMaxx Outdoors and FishMaxx, where he designs and manufactures high-quality hunting and fishing products.

JERIMIAH GRAVES 

Captain Jerimiah, a Nashville native, has spent his life fishing on J. Percy Priest Lake. From a young age, he developed a passion for crappie fishing that has only grown over the years.
