Luxury, power, & performance

A white fishing boat speeds across a lake with autumn trees in the background.

Our 26-foot custom fishing vessel, the Blue Jay, is the heart of Trolling Time Charters. This sleek and powerful fishing boat is named after the bold little bird that flashes across the quiet coves of Dale Hollow Lake. Like its namesake, she’s fast, sharp, and always in pursuit of the next adventure.

Born and built on Dale Hollow Lake, Trolling Time Charters offers more than just a fishing trip — it’s an invitation to experience the water like the locals do: early mornings, clear skies, and the thrill of a fish that reminds you why you came. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or embarking on your first big catch, the Blue Jay is prepared to create memories that last long after the day is over.

Because on Dale Hollow, it’s never just about fishing — it’s about discovering your peace on the water.
