Fish Memphis Guide Service
You'll be anything but blue as you sail through Memphis and beyond with Fish Memphis Guide Service. Traverse up to 50 miles of the famed Mississippi River to put some Catfish on the table, while also having the chance to test your strength against some trophy-sized monsters.
Let Captain Danny Paccasassi take you to the most productive spots. His passion for fishing started at the age of 5 when he went on his first trip. A professional firefighter, he works his love around his work and hopes to show each customer why he fell in love with the sport on these very waters.
Drift along the river aboard a 26' SeaArk ProGuide 260 dual console. This powerful boat was only built in 2021 and still oozes a sense of brand newness. Fitted with plenty of seats for up to 5 guests, you'll be in comfort throughout as you reach speeds of 40 knots thanks to the 300 HP Suzuki engine.
Built with fishing in mind, she features a fishfinder and GPS to get you right on top of the fish, along with a livewell to keep your bait fresh. Capt. Danny has even installed a wireless trolling motor for you to use to creep up close to your prey without making a peep, before luring them in.
Using live and cut bait, you'll attract a bite of all sizes. Blue, Flathead, and Channel Catfish can be found in these productive waters. You'll drift down the river trying to catch the bite of smaller fish on light tackle, while using heavier tackle will enable you to fish the bottom of the river for monster-sized beauties.
With trips running in the morning, afternoon, and night, there's no reason not to come aboard. Capt. Danny has you all taken care of, all you need to do is grab your fishing license – online or in a local Bass Pro shop. Bring whatever food and drinks aboard and store it in the cooler.
Consider sunblock, sunglasses, hats, etc. and settle in for an incredible day's fishing with Fish Memphis Guide Service.
Please note that the captain does not offer fish cleaning services.

I’d been looking forward to this fishing trip so much during my 2 weeks in the US and it certainly did not disappoint! Danny knew some great spots to fish, starting out catching cod to use as bait (which was a fish id have been happy to catch anyway!) He was really knowledgable and was moving around if the bites stopped coming to areas where they started again! I ended the trip with 9 catfish in total, one being a flathead that was really cool. I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to experience a proper day of fishing on the great Mississippi river, a bucket list item ticked off!
Thanks again for coming! Always a treat to fish with people from different parts of the planet! I enjoyed it too!
Fishing the Mississippi River was an incredible experience, made even better by a first-class guide. From the start, it was clear we were in expert hands—knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about the sport. The fishing was exciting and consistent, with great instruction. The equipment was top-notch, and the entire trip was smooth and well-organized. Overall, it was a memorable day on the water and an experience I highly recommend.
Hello Blue, Thank you! I’m so glad you guys enjoyed your trip. I try hard to provide a good experience for everyone. Thx again for coming!
We had a great day with Cpt. Danny! Overcast was perfect for catfishing! I was worried that it would be too warm for good fishing in August- but I was proved wrong! 6 on the bigger side- right away! the others came a bit slower- but overall super successful trip!
Thx again for coming! Glad that you guys enjoyed it!

Your captain
Born and raised right here on the Mississippi River the picture shows it all. That's me at 10 years old and fishing has been my passion since my first trip at the age of 5 on this river and I'm pretty good at it! It's the reason why I chose a career to become a Memphis firefighter since my work schedule allows 20 days off each month to pursue fishing. You and your guest will have me as your sole captain on your private trip and we'll practice safety and fun at all times. The trips and times are customizable by you so before you pick an exact day to go please confirm with me first.
