    Fisher of men & fish!!

    Half Day Trip on June 8, 2026 • 2 adults

    4 hr trip with Capt Fisher (Travis) caught plenty of fish to include walleye yellow bass spotted bass big bluegill and catfish! Captain was right on time boat and equipment was ready to go. Fisher was very knowledgeable and super easy to talk to. I chose to use Captain Fisher because he was young therefore I thought he would be a go getter and boy was I right he works hard to put on fish and keep you on the fish! My bride and I have fished from Alaska to Maine and I would put Capt Fisher at the top of the list! If your passing through Mt Ida I highly recommend hooking up with Captain Fisher!!!

    Fisher was very gracious to take us out in inclement weather after it had been raining all morning and early afternoon. He was very patient and curtious with us. Fisher was quite knowledgeable for a young man. He definitely knew his stuff. We felt comfortable without a doubt.

Fisher was excellent!
Half Day Trip on October 9, 2026 • 2 adults • 2 children

We had an incredible half-day excursion on Lake Ouachita with Fisher Davis, and I cannot recommend him enough. From the start, he knew the lake inside and out and put us right on the fish. ​What really stood out was how fantastic he was with my two younger children. He was wonderfully patient, offering hands-on help and guidance whenever they needed it to make sure they had a blast reeling them in. It made for a truly stress-free and memorable family day on the water. ​We would definitely book with Fisher again in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a top-notch guide in the area, look no further!
