As a "service business", our fishing guides  do their very best to provide a "full service" fishing charter experience.  We're the only fishing guide service that provides a Captain AND First Mate on pontoon boat fishing charters to insure everyone has the help and attention necessary to be successful during charters.  We are the first company to offer pontoon boat family and group fishing charters at Lake of the Ozarks and know how to exceed your fishing charter expectations.  Everything is readied "before" your charter to maximize your Lake Ozark fishing time and "during" your charter we  provide comprehensive service to make sure you have a comfortable, safe, and successful outing.  We target several fish species to include Crappie, Largemouth Bass, Catfish, and White Bass.  You can expect to have your poles baited, baits changed, fish netted, any tangles fixed, any snags and hang up's taken care of, and full assistance and coaching to help you put a bait in front of the fish species you're pursuing.  At the conclusion of your charter we will also hang your catch for pictures AND clean your fish as part of our service. 

We love to teach the skills necessary to help you become a more successful angler and/or a safer boat operator.  Whether you're a novice or experienced angler or boater you'll learn a lot before, during, and after your charter.  If learning new fishing skills, gaining increased knowledge of the items outlined below, or learning how to catch more or better fish is on your agenda, we're here to serve you.  With more than 4 decades of fishing experience that includes competitive tournament fishing, we know how to help you become a better angler.  As certified trainers with formal training and decades of teaching and coaching experience, we gladly teach, coach, and share knowledge with you to enhance your fishing and boating skills.  We're confident you will be a more knowledgable, and successful angler after our time together.
