Welcome aboard! ARIZONA SPORT FISHING Charters is your #1 choice for guided Striped Bass fishing trips just outside of Phoenix, Arizona. We are a family-owned and operated business whose guides fish an average of 220 days each year, ensuring our clients have the best chance of an exciting and successful day of fishing!

Your fishing trip takes place on a 22’ Beachcomber pontoon that seats up to 6 anglers comfortably. It is wheelchair-accessible and comes rigged with the latest fish finder and GPS navigation technology so you’ll reach your spots quickly and safely.

We guide all types of anglers, from beginners to experts, and we especially love guiding families the most. Our family-friendly guides are easy to get along with, great with kids, and passionately committed to helping you teach your kids the joys of fishing and the ultimate thrill of catching fish!

We focus our efforts mainly on catching Striped Bass but we catch everything that’s biting, from Largemouth Bass and White Bass to Channel Catfish and Crappie, and we even catch the occasional Flathead Catfish!

Fish On! You’ll experience the sheer excitement of hearing the drag of your reel scream as a large Striped Bass aggressively strikes your bait and starts peeling the line off your reel. The powerful rod-bending action that ensues will rival even the best fisherman’s tale and have you hooked on Striped Bass fishing for life. With a lake-record Striped Bass of 29 pounds 13.76 ounces, your chances of catching the next lake record with us are great!

ARIZONA SPORT FISHING Charters provides you with top-quality fishing rods, reels, bait, and safety equipment that are included in the price. The crew baits your hooks, nets your fish, and takes care of all line-rigging so you can relax, enjoy your day on the water and catch fish! Just bring your smiles and join us for a great day of fishing!
