Welcome to Skamaniac Charters

Formerly known as Tim’s Striper Guide Service.

Welcome to Skamaniac Charters, an Indiana fishing guide experience on both Raccoon and Monroe reservoirs for trophy Striped Bass and Hybrid Striped Bass (Wipers). This is the ultimate in freshwater big game fishing!  These saltwater transplants will amaze you at their strength and the ferocity of their strikes and drag burning runs. Their hybrid cousins, Wipers, fight just as hard pound for pound, and provide a great experience for younger fishermen that may not be able to handle a 20 lb. + fish. The last few years have been very good on both Raccoon and Monroe reservoirs. Several fish over 25 lbs and many over 20 lbs have been taken on Raccoon the last few years. The state record of 39 lbs 8 oz came out of Raccoon, and I’m sure the next state record is out there somewhere! The largest caught on my boat to date is 34 lbs. I have had a lot of doubles and triples fish on, and there have been several instances when every rod in the boat has gone off at once! (I usually run 8-9 rods) Trust me, this is not a pretty sight! I am looking forward to another great year of fishing and hope you choose me to be your guide. For the fishing experience of a lifetime, give Striper fishing a try!

Good Fishing!
