MEET YOUR GUIDE
Marc Mitchell: Lake Fork fishing guide
Marc has been guiding on Lake Fork since 1982. He is the lake’s longest-tenured guide, bringing decades of on-the-water experience to each trip.
Marc’s approach is personal and hands-on. He wants guests to leave with a better understanding of bass behavior, presentations, and patterns they can use on any lake—and to enjoy the day while learning.
