Hi, my name is Caleb Smith. I am a full-time hunting and fishing guide that has been blessed to work all across the continent of North America alongside many great people. I grew up in an outdoor family, learning to hunt and fish at a very young age, where Saturdays and free-time were spent in the woods or on the water. I began guiding during high school while traveling across the country working in the outdoor industry where I developed a love and passion for sharing these wonderful resources with new people everyday. What started as a hobby quickly became a lifelong passion that I now get to share with others.

I founded Finadx in early 2023 with the intent to offer a premier fishing experience to each and every person who steps foot on the boat. While providing trips that are memorable, filled with smiles, new experiences, and the opportunity for my clients to learn something while enjoying their time on the water. There’s nothing like seeing the excitement on someone’s face when a rod bends at the net or when the wind hits the wings on a duck.

With many years in the industry, I’ve had the privilege of guiding in incredible places like Tennessee, Alaska, Arkansas, Canada, Kentucky, and beyond. But I always find my way back to Tennessee, especially for the thrill of fishing in these home waters.

I take pride in my work and genuinely care about what I do. Not everyone gets the opportunity to have a career they truly enjoy, and for me, guiding is less like work and more like sharing an adventure. I value the friendships that develop on these trips and I strive to make every outing fun, comfortable, and tailored to each client’s experience. 

Above all, I’m thankful to God and the people who have mentored and invested in me along the way. Now, I hope to do the same for others. 

When you choose Finadx, you’re not just booking a fishing trip; you’re becoming part of a family where relationships grow. I look forward to the opportunity to share this journey with you and we’ll see you down the road!
