  David

  David Blakley grew up hunting and fishing in Northwest Tennessee. His passion for the outdoors led him to starting David Blakley's Guide Service in 2007. He lives and breathes the outdoors. If he is not guiding, he is teaching his children the love of the great outdoors. David knows all the hidden treasures of Reelfoot Lake, and he will take you out to chase fish, show you the picturesque Reelfoot, or call in waterfowl from the heavens so you can bag a mallard. As the song by Luke Combs goes, "I'd still be doin' this if I wasn't doin' this."

Nelson is no stranger to the outdoors, he has 20+ years of guiding experience. His love for the outdoors led him down this career path, making his office Reelfoot lake and his office supplies fishing poles and shotguns! Nelson loves being on Reelfoot every chance he gets, and he shows his kids the best fishing and hunting spots to raise the next generation of respectful outdoorsmen.
