Book your next trip with Crappie Freaks Guide Service and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Quitman for more.

The name of the game here is Crappie! During the trip, you might be light tackle fishing or maybe something more specialized in this area. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep. Plus, you can have your catch cleaned. Now that’s dinner!

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. You can’t go wrong when you bring snacks, sunscreen (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

You’ll find yourself aboard a 20’ Center console with space for 4 passengers. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, 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.

Before coming aboard, it may be necessary to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

Get in touch with Capt. Donny below and start planning your trip today!
