Captain Sean Signore’s journey on the water began in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, where his father instilled a lifelong passion for the outdoors. From the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers to the deepest woods, a love for fishing, hunting, and the natural world was sparked at age four. Even when family business kept his dad busy, young Sean was found by the local creek, already practicing the angler's trade. This deep, personal history with nature is the foundation of every Tennessee Fishing Excursion, assuring guests they are fishing with a guide whose roots run deep in outdoor tradition.
Sean's professional career as a guide started in the Gulf of Mexico near Tampa in 2014, but his decades-long connection to the Tennessee River has always defined his angling expertise. With over 38 years of personal experience fishing across North America and specifically mastering the fertile waters of the Tennessee River system, he brings unparalleled local knowledge to every trip. His specialty is the strategic pursuit of large game fish, from tackling giant Catfish and Walleye to mastering light and heavy tackle techniques across the river’s currents and structures. Guests benefit from this wealth of experience, knowing they are fishing with a guide who understands the river's unique moods and seasons.
More than just an expert angler, Captain Sean is a friendly, patient, and highly qualified professional dedicated to guest safety and enjoyment. He is a fully USCG licensed captain, insured, certified in CPR, and adheres to strict safety protocols, including regular drug testing. He particularly enjoys welcoming children aboard, much like his own grandson, believing strongly in teaching the joys of fishing to the next generation. Whether you're chasing Hybrid Striped Bass or drifting for giant Catfish, Captain Sean’s commitment is to deliver a safe, fun, and educational adventure on the water.
