What travelers are saying
- Doug M1 contributionHad a great time. Our guide Shane put us on fish as soon as we started fishing. He did everything for us. We didn't have to touch bait or fish and cleaned our catch when we were done. Would highly recommend and would book with them again if I ever go back to Branson.Written 1 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- tommy b1 contributionSuch an awesome time. I called on short notice and was able to get a time for a family of four. Very accommodating and caught plenty of Bass. Our guide Ed was amazing. Helped the kiddos and had the best electronics and knowledge of where to go and put us on fish. This will be a fishing trip to remember.... especially for our 10 year old daughter who pulled in 14 fish!!Written 1 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- debbieisacatloverMooresville, IN64 contributionsJake from State Park Marina was extremely helpful and full of information. We rented the fishing boat because it was so much cheaper than the speed boat. It was extremely hot the day we rented and Jake helps us find good places to avoid the sun and heat. This Marina has a lot of class. We would definitely recommend.Written 29 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LORI B1 contributionThis guided fishing experience was the best thing to happen for me in a very long time!! Mikes expertise on Table Rock Lake was unmatched!! We was as excited as we were with every fish we caught. His knowledge of every type of lure and line rigging for all species of fish is incredible. He put us the bass that we were wanting to catch and boy howdy did we catch them!! If we ever return to Missouri, this will be our first adventure to put on our schedule!!Written 26 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Greg LFriendswood, TX54 contributionsIf I could give 6 starts I would. The staff was incredibly nice. Not only did they upgrade our boat but they gave us a lot of great rainbow trout fishing information. They advised on both bait and location and we ended up within 1 trout of our limit the day we rented the boat. They really go out of their way to make you feel like family.Written 17 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pam BDallas, TX47 contributionsWent out trout fishing on a cold morning and Dave certainly delivered the fish. Dave is a great guide and took care of everything we needed. If you are looking for a great morning or afternoon fishing, we certainly would recommend Dave’s Guide Service. 5 stars!Written 23 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Trip3266881 contributionDarren Sadler was the perfect guide for our family. His patience was extraordinary with our nine year old and the adults who had never been fly fishing before. He took the time to teach us the correct techniques, and his vast knowledge and experience combined to make our trip beyond what we could have imagined.Written 12 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Darrell G12 contributionsWe loved the duck tour was fun Clayton our guide knew a lot of history and was funny as well.

- jenlynnbennGlen Ellyn, IL39 contributionsWe’ve never been fly fishing before but wanted to give it a try. We knew NOTHING about fly fishing, absolutely NOTHING. River Run Outfitters was FANTASTIC to work with - from the initial call to book the guided trip, to the confirmation call the day before, to the preparation the morning of at their store, to the actual trip itself. Everyone was SUPER nice and helpful! They take care of EVERYTHING. Darren and Gary were our guides. Both were extremely patient. Fly fishing is VERY different from the blue gill fishing we were used to. We had a GREAT time with them, and everyone caught a fish. Mission accomplished!Written 24 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Calvin Jarkins2 contributionsBrett Rader is an excellent guide. I caught some really nice rainbow trout fishing with him. I will be fishing with him again and again!Written 22 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- cjon07Branson, MO36 contributionsThe taneycomo trip was nice and relaxing. The driver drove fast and was in a complete hurry to quickly go over instructions as he sped down to the drop off. I felt very frazzled listening to him quickly go over everything… and then we had to wait an hour for him to pick us up because he was busy with another group. So we just sat on the boat ramp in the sun baking for an hour. The float itself was nice. We will use another outfitter the next time around however.Written 12 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
