Hoping to catch some fish in Branson? That’s what Stone’s Guide Service is here for! Your guide for the day is Captain Phillip, which allows you to benefit from years of professional experience.

Largemouth, Smallmouth, White and Spotted Bass, Brown Trout, Crappie, Steelhead, and more are in the cards, depending on the time of year. On the day of your trip, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle. Except for Bass, your catch is yours to keep, provided they’re within size and bag limits. Capt. Phillip can even clean your catch for you. Talk about bang for your buck!

Capt. Phillip specializes in fishing at Table Rock Lake, Bull Shoals Lake, and Lake Taneycomo. He knows all the best spots to put you on the fish and has expertise with anglers of all levels. You’ll need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. It’s recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. Drinks and snacks will be available for you.

Your boat for the day is a 21’ Bass boat with room for 5 passengers. This 2023 vessel is fully rigged, with your comfort, satisfaction, safety, and catching lots of fish being the highest priority! Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

Give yourself something to look forward to, and book a trip with Stone’s Guide Service!
