Fish the bountiful waters of the Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees and the Neosho River with Alexander Guide Service! Captain Wayne Alexander will go out of his way to make sure you have a fun day fishing for a variety of exciting freshwater fish.
You’ll be casting off of a powerful 2019 28’ North River sport fishing vessel. This comfortable beauty can accommodate up to 5 anglers who can all fish at the same time. Thanks to her 300 HP Yamaha engine, you’ll cruise between the river and lake with ease.
Fishing the Grand Lake gives you one of your best chances at catching Paddlefish. These ancient fish haven’t changed much in the last 75 million years and will test your angling skills as you battle to reel them in!
You need to release Paddlefish on Mondays and Fridays but Capt. Wayne is happy to clean and fillet your catch during the rest of the week. Aside from Paddlefish, you’ll also have the opportunity to target tasty Catfish, Crappie, and Hybrid Striped Bass.
All the fishing gear you need for a productive day on the water will be waiting for you on board. You’ll want to bring snacks and drinks to enjoy throughout the day – and don’t forget to pick up a fishing license at the Grove Sports Centre.
If you’re looking to extend your fishing trip, Capt. Wayne also offers his trailer for accommodation at an additional cost of $150 per day. Feel free to get in touch with him for more information. Get ready for some of the most thrilling freshwater fishing the area has to offer with Alexander Guide Service!

Half Day Trip (AM)
I picked Alexander's Guide service based off their boat. You can usually judge a outfit by their equipment. Wayne and DK were friendly and responsive. The rest of the guides were running around on tiny flat bottom boats you typically see in tiny lakes, and charging twice as much. We watched them getting beat up by the waves. The 29' North River we were on cut through the water perfectly. We will be booking with Alexander for our next trip.

June 12, 2025. The Captain and mate took my buddy and me in fishing trip today. In spite of weather that rolled in we had an awesome time. We caught a good mess of fish. The crew went out of their way to make a great day. They supplied food which consisted of best sub sandwiches, chips and drinks. I e been on about 20 guided fishing trips. Salt water and fresh water. This is best so far. Thank you ti the crew for an absolutely great trip

We had a great time today fishing with Captain Wayne and DK! We caught fish that we don't catch in South Louisiana which is what we hoped for. Capt. Wayne cleaned the fish for us and we just finished eating them. All around a great day! We're booking again early next year. Looking forward to it!

Even with the floodwaters our captains stuck it out and made a great day for the both of us limiting out on spoonbill with some big catfish as well.
