Make an adventure out of your next trip in Camdenton and go fishing with Unreel Guide Service. Your guide for the day is Captain Andy, giving you access to years of sportfishing experience.
Around here it’s common to catch Crappie, Largemouth Bass, and more with any luck. On these trips, it’s common to spin.
Your day begins aboard a 20’ Nitro bass boat with a capacity for 3 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.
Before coming aboard, you will be required 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.
Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be some light snacks available on board.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Unreel Guide Service.

Half Day Trip (AM) on May 24, 2025
Booked with Andy just because he was close to were we stayed. There was not that many reviews but the few were good so I took the gamble…… oh did it pay off!!! He took care of everything all we had to do was catch the fish.He was great at putting my dad and I on the fish, we almost caught our two man limit with crappie. We did catch more fish that were not regulation. I can’t wait to book with Andy again, hopefully sooner that later.

My wife, 7 year old son and I fished with Andy this morning. We had so much fun and my 7 year old left A pro. Andy fished with my son for the full time spent in the boat. He also managed to bait all of our hooks, net and take off all of our fish and tie on new hooks when needed. He was fun to fish with and we left with enough crappie for dinner and then some! Absolutely recommend!!

Andy is an excellent guide. He recently took me and my 2 sons (ages 8 and 10) out and we had a very successful day on the water catching crappie. Andy is patient, knowledgeable, and professional. He keeps his boat in excellent condition. I highly recommend him and we look forward to catching fish with him again.
