Ultimate Guided Fishing Trips
Justin and Nate Herman of Herman Brothers Pond Management spend
most of their lives on the water. They take care of lakes and
ponds for private recreational land owners in Central Illinois,
and currently manage more than 1550 acres of private water. When
they are not managing ponds, stocking fish and evaluating
fisheries for clients, they can usually be found on the water
either taking someone fishing or just fishing for fun.
In 2007 the Herman Brothers started providing a unique fishing
guide service, where Justin and Nate would take clients and
their families fishing on the client's own lake. During these
guided trips, they would teach their clients everything they
could possibly need to know about catching fish in their lake.
This became such a popular event with their clients, that the
pond managers made arrangements with several area private lake
owners to start taking out guided fishing trips to the public.
In 2008, Justin and Nate taught more than 1000 local children,
seniors, widows, and just plain regular people how to fish!
During the ice fishing season of 2008/2009, their guided
fishing trips took on another unique twist when Justin started
filming all of their fishing trips. He then would make 8 to 10
minute fishing shows for their clients to share their ultimate
guided fishing trip with the world! To keep tabs of all their fishing
photos, stories, and videos, Nate started a blog called www.thediaryofalakenerd.blogspot.com.
A guided fishing trip with Herman Brothers usually consists of
about 4 hours of fishing for up to 4 people. They provide all
the necessary fishing gear, tackle, bait, licenses, photos, and now
starting in 2009 your entire fishing trip will be filmed and
edited!
Herman Brothers Pond Management provides a very unique
opportunity to fish intensively managed private water in central
Illinois. They stock millions of fish for clients every year,
and keep their own fishing lakes full of fish as well! Their
lakes are full of largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, hybrid
striped bass, walleye, yellow perch, crappie, bluegill, catfish,
tiger muskie, and rainbow trout.
