About Your Trip

Explore Missouri's North Fork River with Spencer on a guided float fishing trip! With 4–6 hour and 8-hour options available, you'll drift through scenic stretches of the river targeting smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, rainbow trout, brown trout, and striped bass, depending on the season and conditions.

Throughout the trip, you'll fish a mix of rocky runs, deeper pools, and slower eddies where fish like to hold. Depending on the bite, you might throw topwater lures for bass, work soft plastics and jigs around structure, or drift nymphs and cast spinners for trout. Spencer will help you read the water, adjust techniques, and make the most of each fishing opportunity.

You'll be fishing from a drift boat, allowing you to explore stretches of river and reach spots that can be difficult to access from shore. Fishing gear is provided, and Spencer will position the boat to give you opportunities to cast into productive areas. Whether you choose a shorter float or spend the full day on the water, there's plenty of opportunity to learn new techniques and enjoy the surrounding scenery.

From first-time anglers to experienced fishermen looking to explore new water, Spencer welcomes anglers of all skill levels for a laid-back day fishing the North Fork River!

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
