Capt. Don Ramsey, Lake Hartwell & Clarks Hill Fishing Guide
Don's love for fishing first took root during his childhood, as he fondly recalls spending summers and family vacations pier fishing in the Gulf of Mexico alongside his grandmother and grandfather. Those early experiences nurtured his passion for the sport and ignited a lifelong connection to the water.
In his mid-twenties, Don received an invitation to participate in a bass fishing tournament, which proved to be a pivotal moment in his life. It was during this event that he discovered his true calling—bass fishing. From that point forward, Don immersed himself in the world of competitive fishing, participating in tournaments and honing his skills on various bodies of water.
