Hello my name is Joe. I own and operate a full time guide service in the Ozark Region. My services offer professional guided fishing trips on Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock, Truman Lake, Pomme De Terre and Stockton. I have been in business for the last 7 years and can assure you, you will have a fun knowledgeable day on the water! I work with anglers of all skill levels from the once a year fisherman all the way to the professional anglers scouting for a tournament. I have a huge passion for the sport of fishing and would love to have the chance to be able to share it with you!

How did you get started guiding?

The sport of fishing is always something that I have had a passion for. Teaching people new techniques and sharing my knowledge with others is one big thing that I love about being a guide. I have been in buisness for over 7 years and can assure you I will provide you with a good experience on the water and keep the rods bent!

What makes you different from other guides?

I am a people person, 25 years old and I have fished full time since I was 18.

About Your Trip

Lake of the Ozarks located in the beautiful hills of central Missouri which offers a nice getaway. Largemouth, smallmouth and spotted bass dominate these waters, while white and striped bass are more limited. In addition, there are many large bluegill, crappie, channel and flat head catfish can also be found within the waters of Lake of the Ozarks. Due to mild winters, Table Rock & Lake of the Ozarks does not freeze over, which allows for year-round fishing opportunities.

My favorite part of being a fishing guide is being able to share my passion and love for the sport with other people. I work well with kids. When you book a trip with me you do not have to worry about bringing anything. With my service I furnish all of the rods, reels, tackle, etc. I offer trips for multiple species depending on the time of year.
