Testimonial:
For many years I have been a scent fanatic. I have spent many countless days on the water field testing and evaluating my results using different scents and compounds such as water & oil base/gel compounds. I have found that CB's Hawg Sauce has the correct scent in the appropriate compound for any fishing condition and pattern I encounter on any body of water. As a professional guide I do not have the luxury to pick the weather conditions and avoid the heavy fishing pressure lockjaw symptoms that a fishery can experience at times, but I have confidence that my CB's Hawg Sauce will give my clients & myself an extra sharp edge to hook BUBBA!! My personal favorite is Garlic, but I keep my jar of Bass Honey gel close by at all times. "You have to be on CB's Hawg Sauce to HOOK the BIG One!!!"

Most Memorable Fishing Experience's:
There have been many moments that are always on my mind such as the first and many fishing trips when I was a kid out on Lake Cahoon, VA., with my Grandfather and Uncle. Accomplishing the task of getting my U.S.C.G. License and starting my guide service. My first client catching a 7.52 lb. Largemouth on the Upper Chesapeake Bay. Being fortunate enough to see the smiles on my clients faces as they catch fish and have an enjoyable day on the water.

Summary:
Karl's Bassin' Adventures Guide Service has been a long now achieved dream of mine, (Captain Karl Bunch). As a young boy I grew up in Suffolk, VA. My Grandfather and Uncle were avid & well respected fishermen of the Suffolk Lakes. I was fortunate that they were willing and patient enough to take the time to teach me how to fish and understand and appreciate the importance of our valuable waters & natural resources. I will always remember the excitement and joy of catching those bream & sunfish on old fashioned (not the modern day) cane poles with a bobber and live cricket's for bait, and the fish stories that I could not wait to get home to tell my Grandmother. By the time I became a young teenager my Mom had remarried and my stepfather had been a merchant marine in his younger years. He taught me the rules of navigation and to respect and navigate the bigger open waters of the Albemarle Sound & Chesapeake Bay. By the time that I became a young adult I realized that my passion was fishing for largemouth & smallmouth bass. But I still enjoy, and the memories of excitement come to my mind every time I am blessed with a nice sunfish or perch on my hook. Please remember to take a little of your time to help a young person or adult experience & enjoy our great sport of fishing, you may not realize the positive impact that you are making at the time, but you could be helping another person to appreciate and enjoy the great sport of fishing for many years to come. "A New Adventure Starts With Every Cast!"

Thanks & Good Fishing,
Capt. Karl
