About Your Trip

Get ready for an unforgettable day on the water with Captain Fisher, exploring the stunning scenery and rich fishing grounds of Lake Ouachita in Mount Ida or Hot Springs, Arkansas! Whether you’re looking to reel in a big catch or just enjoy a peaceful day surrounded by the beauty of this pristine lake, Captain Fisher has you covered. With his expert knowledge of the area and passion for fishing, he’ll take you straight to the hotspots where the fish are biting, ensuring you have a blast from start to finish.

Your adventure begins aboard Captain Fisher’s 20’ aluminum bass boat, perfectly designed for navigating Lake Ouachita’s diverse waters. Powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine, this boat can comfortably accommodate up to four anglers. With GPS and fishfinder tech on board, plus a wireless trolling motor for sneaking up on fish, you’ll have every advantage to make the most of your day. There’s also a live bait well to keep your bait fresh and an ice box to keep your food and drinks chilled while you focus on fishing.

On this trip, you’ll be using light tackle to target a variety of species that call these waters home, including Largemouth Bass, Walleye, Sunfish, Catfish, and Crappie. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner, Captain Fisher will make sure you have everything you need to land the fish of your dreams. And if you’re bringing kids along, even better—this trip is family-friendly and a perfect way to introduce little ones to the joys of fishing!

Captain Fisher provides all the rods, reels, tackle, and live bait you’ll need for the day, along with snacks and drinks to keep you fueled up. Best of all, he’ll even clean and fillet your catch at no extra cost, so you can take your fresh fish home for dinner. All you need to bring is your Arkansas fishing license, a great attitude, and maybe a camera to capture all the fun!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

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. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
