The most common fishing techniques are light tackle fishing, artificial lure fishing, and trolling but jigging and live bait fishing are popular as well.

How much does a walleye fishing trip cost?

Prices for walleye can range anywhere from about $440 to $1,550, but the average price for a half day trip for walleye is $787. The average price for a full day trip for walleye is $1,033.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

    Trip: 4- 6 Hours -Table Rock Lake

  • ★★★★★
    Booking this once in a lifetime trip was super easy, responses to any questions were quick and friendly. I cannot say enough good things about our wonderful guide, Sam. His enthusiasm for fishing was contagious. He is knowledgeable about the lake, including history, landmarks and the wildlife. He made sure that we had the experience we came for: great views and great fishing. My son felt like he was fishing with his buddy. Sam taught my son some new fishing skills. He says his favorite fishing is canyon fishing now. This trip was one for the books!
