Been twice and love this place. The curator gave me and my bros a tour and it was epic. All anglers should visit at least once. This place is a gem.

If you like history a must see!
Especially if you are a fisherman you'll appreciate this museum. I fished with my family growing up and during my grandfather's last three years of life We fished together alot. So much I didn't know you get a tour and learn all different brands of rods and reels it's much more than just fishing even dinosaur bones. Also a place for kids to color while you enjoy the museum. Only issue the steep hill to get to hidden museum. I parked in shopping center on country 76 Blvd. It was easy to walk to and I did spend two hours did get through 1/2 the museum.

Any person who likes to fish should go see this collection of fishing equipment. Bill is very friendly and he explains all kinds of details about fishing.

I have been here over 10 times and still see something new each time. The collection is a treasure, and Branson is so lucky to have it. Bill is so knowledgeable and passionate in running this fishing museum. Karl and Beverly White have spent a lifetime collecting all of this. I want to thank them for letting us see there collection.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the fishing museum. We were lucky to have Bill show us the lures, gear, and other pieces of fishing history that make this museum unique. What made this visit even better for us is that Bill gave us 90 minutes of his time sharing stories and details behind the equipment and fishermen. For visitors who enjoy fishing, this is a tremendous place to see and learn how this sport has changed over time.

I went with my husband because he is obsessed with fishing. I thought okay this will be for him, but I really enjoyed it! The man giving the tour was very knowledgeable, funny, and relaxing to listen to. Very well done tour and I can honestly say I left there having learned a lot! Recommend for the die hard fishermen/women, but also for those that might not be that into it. LOVED!
