Our Story

Jason Whitehead, owner and operator of Alabama Elite Fishing Guide, has been creating unforgettable fishing experiences for Alabama residents and visitors since 2022. As a USCG-licensed and insured charter captain, accomplished tournament angler, and experienced Lake Guntersville fishing guide, Jason combines a lifelong passion for fishing with a commitment to helping others enjoy and succeed on the water.

Jason's love for fishing began as soon as he could walk, thanks to his father, who introduced him to the sport at an early age. By the age of 15, he was competing in bass fishing tournaments, developing the skills and local knowledge that have made him a trusted bass guide on Lake Guntersville and Lewis Smith Lake. Over the years, he discovered that sharing his knowledge with others was just as rewarding as competing, and today he takes pride in helping anglers build confidence, improve their skills, and create lasting memories.

Whether you're booking a one-on-one lesson, a family outing, a corporate event, or a group adventure, every trip is customized around your goals, experience level, and interests. From first-time anglers learning the basics to experienced fishermen looking to refine advanced techniques, Jason is dedicated to providing a personalized experience that goes beyond simply catching fish.

Alabama Elite Fishing Guide offers professionally guided fishing trips on Lake Guntersville and Lewis Smith Lake, specializing as a bass fishing guide, crappie guide, and electronics guide. Choose from 4-hour or 6-hour guided trips designed for individuals, families, youth, groups, and corporate outings. We also provide on-the-water electronics instruction, teaching anglers how to maximize sonar, side imaging, down imaging, and forward-facing sonar to become more effective on the water.

We are passionate about introducing the next generation to fishing through youth instruction, covering everything from the fundamentals of recreational angling to advanced tournament preparation. Discounts are proudly offered to active military members, veterans, and first responders as a thank-you for their service.

Testimonials

On 8/17/2026 John Barnard had this to say:
Booked a 6 hour electronics trip with Jason and he did not disappoint. Not only did he get my system set up he walked me through the settings on the water. He was very knowledgeable and taught me how to use them and adjust them through varying water conditions. As a bonus we caught some fish while using the tips he gave me. I would highly recommend him for any service he provides.

On 8/6/2026 Justin South had this to say:
There are a lot of great fishing guides on Lake Guntersville who can put you on fish. Jason can absolutely do that—but what sets him apart is who he is as a person. Every trip with Jason is about more than catching bass. He genuinely takes the time to teach, explain, and help you become a better fisherman. He never just puts a rod in your hand—he makes sure you understand the "why" behind what you're doing. What means the most to me, though, is the way he's poured into my boys. He's patient, encouraging, and treats them like they matter. They can't wait until they're back in the boat with him. Over the trips we've taken together, Jason has become much more than our fishing guide—he's become a friend. The fish we've caught and the pictures speak for themselves, but the memories, lessons, and relationship are what keep us coming back. The fish are why you book him the first time, but the man is why you keep coming back. If you're looking for someone who will put you on fish, Jason can do that. If you're looking for someone who will teach you, invest in your family, and make every trip one you'll never forget, I can't recommend him highly enough.

I just did my 8th or 9th fishing trip with Alabama Elite Fishing Guide. Jason Whitehead always delivers an awesome trip! I caught my personal best bass on this last trip. I brought my nephew and his son along for a great family adventure. I highly recommend Jason who also educates you on fishing gear and techniques and always puts you on the fish. I can't wait until my next trip!

On 7/29/2026 Richard Reinbold had this to say:
I've fished with Jason a couple of times this year. He's very knowledgeable when it comes to seasonal movements of bass. He's very patient teaching an old dog new tricks and lures I've never used before. He's on time and ready to go. I'd recommend him to any skill level angler.
