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!

Great guide, patient planner. He knew places to put us on fish. Ultimately, its up to you to land the fish, but he'll get you in the best position to succeed.

It was a wonderful day on the lake and we enjoyed being out on the water as much as catching fish! Our captain was great! He was very knowledgeable and friendly. My husband and I had a great time. I will definitely book this trip again. Thanks Ryker for the great trip.

Bass/Crappie bundle - Full Day
My son and I had a great trip with Ryker! We caught a ton of crappie to start the day. While crappie fishing my son caught the biggest bass of the day, 4lb 8oz. We then spent the second half of the day catching bass. Lots in the 2-4 lb range. Ryker was patient and knowledgeable. We did some sight fishing which was a first for us and landed several bass that way. Great day- would recommend.
