Peter Lavender Fishing Guide Services and Get Hooked South Shore Guide Service were fortunate to entertain some American clients from New Jersey, Virginia, Massachusetts, and all the way from California.

It was a pleasure meeting all of you and thank you for visiting our province!

Bass fishing on the fly!

Our equipment!

We can accommodate up to two anglers with our 16’ aluminum outboard from Polar Kraft Boats. Factory installed casting deck allows for a comfortable platform to ensure balance and cast accuracy.

Powered by a fuel efficient 15HP motor from Mercury Marine we can reach our favourite fishing holes without losing valuable time.

We also use an electric trolling motor from Minn Kota to maneuver the boat which eliminates the need for always relying on the gas motor and spooking our target fish.

You are welcome to use our supplied casting and spinning rods and artificial baits. If you choose to bring your own fishing equipment we have the room for that too.

In April I will be joined by fellow angler and licensed guide Larry Nickerson, as he brings a new addition to Get Hooked South Shore Guide Service which will serve double duty as tournament boat and guide boat as we bring more options to our service.

We look forward to the new fishing season and getting you on the water!

Lake Profile:

Pernette Lake

Pernette Lake is located in Lake Centre, Lunenburg County Nova Scotia. It is approximately 12 minutes from the town of Bridgewater.

A smalll body of fresh water that is about 90.2ha or 223ac in size. It is a shallow lake reaching a maximum depth of approximately 25 feet.

Fish species include smallmouth bass, speckled trout and an abundance of yellow perch which keep the bass well fed, feisty and give an angler a good fight!

It is a lake we visit often throughout the season both for our own recreation and to entertain clients.

Minimal boat traffic, adequate boat launch and parking for two or three vehicles with trailer.

We are taking bookings now for Pernette and we will feature some of the other lakes we visit in future post.

Feel free to call or message with any questions on how to book your next fishing trip along the South Shore with Get Hooked South Shore Guide Service

Happy New Year to all!

11/19/2023

2023 proved to be a successful year for our guide service. We saw clients from local parts of Nova Scotia, from Western Canada, the United States and from Switzerland.

It was my pleasure to show you some south shore bass fishing and a few of the many fresh water lakes in our area.

2023 also saw the launch of our website, in large part to the talents of graphics designer, Ashley Specht. Thank you Ashley.

We look forward to promoting the bass fishery in 2024 and excited to share the passion of fishing with others.

Thanks to all that came out!

It was a privilege to get Colin and his daughter out on Wentzells Lake today. They both caught some nice fish and the weather cooperated for us as well. Such a great time of year to be chasing smallmouth. Thanks again!

Side note:

Colin and I were discussing how smallmouth don’t seem to use lumber in Nova Scotia like you think they would. Colin managed a beautiful 3.72lbs smallie off some fallen lumber shortly after this discussion. I think I was excited as he was to see our theory debunked!

Current is key. A fall smallie sitting in the river feeding!

Catch by Larry Nickerson!

Catch and release with Ernie! Off to grow and give someone else joy!

Ernie started the morning off with top water fly action. We’re counting this one Ernie!

09/25/2023

This smallmouth bass gave Mr. Nickerson a great fight. Cooperated for us to get a video of its release and off to do what bass do!

I want to thank Sherrie and Ernie King for joining me this morning to chase some smallmouth bass.

They run their own outfitting and guide service in Franklin, North Carolina and are here in the maritimes vacationing for the first time.

Ernie and I will be heading out again tomorrow morning.

It was a true pleasure meeting you both. Now I know where to go when I’m in North Carolina!

Thanks folks!

Someone showed up late to the party today but that didn’t stop him from putting several hangry fall smallies in the boat.
Thank you Larry for sharing a great day on the water!

Love fall fishing

Great way to start the morning

We want to thank New Germany & Area Lions Club for maintaining this great park and launch. I’ve been fishing this lake for a few years now and the concrete launch is much appreciated. Although it’s been quite sometime since I’ve seen the water levels this high at this time of year.

Hopefully today turns up some nice smallies

Catch and release!

The smallies didn’t light it up. But the white perch were on 🔥

We are excited to have a website now available. We’ve received an increase in inquiries this year and one of the questions clients have asked “where’s your website?”

Thank you to Ashley Specht, who designed our logo over 3 years ago and has now gave us another venue for clients to find us and get in touch.

Meet Shawn, The Owner: My first experience with fishing was in the early 80’s with my father fishing for trout on the Clyde River, Shelburne County. In my teenage years my step brothers and I enjoyed canoeing the Roseway River, fishing for trout, looking for turtles and really just enjoying the ou...

Young Colin releasing his first smallmouth bass!

I want to thank Caroline and her son Colin for joining us today on Pernette Lake.
Just flew in from Manitoba to enjoy our province for the week.

Colin has experience with northern pike (Jack fish) in northern Manitoba but was looking forward to catching smallmouth bass. We were able to get him on to a couple today!

Thank you folks and enjoy the rest of your summer vacation!
