Welcome to Goober Time Guide Service
Hook, Line, and Sinker: Your James River Adventure Starts Here
Whether you’re a seasoned angler looking to beat your personal best or a family looking for a sun-soaked day on the water, Goober Time Guide Service is your premier ticket to the legendary waters of the James River.
We don't just take you fishing; we give you the "Goober Time" experience—where professional expertise meets a relaxed, high-energy atmosphere. The James River is world-renowned for its diverse ecosystem and powerhouse fish, and we know every secret bend and deep hole from Richmond to the Bay.
What We Offer
Our charters are fully equipped and tailored to your skill level. When you step onto our boat, you’re getting more than a ride; you’re getting a masterclass in local tactics.
Trophy Blue Catfish: This is what we’re famous for. Brace yourself for a battle with the giants that call the James home.
Smallmouth & Largemouth Bass: Technical, exciting, and perfect for those who love the art of the cast.
Seasonal Stripers & Shad: Catch the runs when the river is alive with silver.
Top-Tier Gear: We provide the rods, reels, and bait. You just bring the grit (and maybe a sandwich).
Why Fish With Us?
At Goober Time, we believe fishing should be as fun as it is productive. Our guides are experts in river navigation and fish patterns, but they’re even better at making sure everyone on board—from "pro-staff" hobbyists to first-time kids—has a blast. "It’s not just about the catch; it’s about the stories you tell when you get back to the dock."
Join Us on the Water
The river is calling, and the bite is on! We are currently booking half-day and full-day excursions. Space fills up fast during peak seasons, so don't wait for the big one to swim away.
