If you're ready to start fishing in Quitman, look no further than Lake Fork Premier Guide Service. Your guide for the day is Captain Ryker, which allows you to benefit from years of knowledge and experience.
These waters are known for Largemouth Bass, Crappie, and more – with any luck, they'll make your reel scream. For these species, you're likely to use light or heavy tackle.
Lake Fork Premier Guide Service is a child-friendly charter service, so feel free to make a family day out of it! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!
Your adventure begins aboard a 20' Phoenix bass boat with room for 2 passengers. The number of passengers varies from species targeted. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
Before coming aboard, you will need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect. It's always wise to bring sunscreen and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Lake Fork Premier Guide Service!

Heath HookRepeat angler5.0VerifiedGreat Guide and Experience
Half Day AM Trip – Largemouth Bass on March 28, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 childi booked with Ryker based on feedback that I saw on the Fishbooker app for a guided teip on Lake Fork with my 11 year old son and his best friend. Ryker was a great guide-very patient and he worked hard to get us on fish. In addition to that, he took the time to show my son and his friend how to properly use a bait caster. It was a great day with some great memories with my son and I’m truly appreciative of that. If you are considering doing a guided fishing trip on Lake Fork, you definitely want to use this guy! He knows the lake very well!

Crappie trip - AM on August 11, 2026 • 2 adultsI've moved this guide to my favorites list. He put us the crappie immediately and moved easily from brush pile to brush pile. Equipment was in perfect condition and the boat was clean. Ryker was personable, patient and capable. Our trip was fun and very enjoyable.I recommend Ryker and plan to charter with him again.
