Rend Lake – Lakeside Guide Services
Come enjoy a guided fishing trip on Rend Lake with Lakeside Guide Services in Ina, IL. As a local guide, I know the lake and the areas where we may find fish depending on the season and current conditions.
Depending on conditions, you may have the opportunity to catch crappie, largemouth bass, and other fish that are biting. We'll travel to the fishing spots by boat, and I'll provide the rods and reels. Bottled water is also provided for your trip. At the end of the trip, I'll clean and bag your fish fillets and place them in a small styrofoam cooler with ice packs so they're ready to take home.
You will need to obtain an Illinois fishing license before your trip. Meals are not included in the trip price, so please bring our own snacks and lunch.
If you're traveling to Rend Lake for your fishing trip, we also offer a two-bedroom nightly rental home located right next door to my home. The rental has everything you need for your stay except food. We can offer the rental as part of a package deal with your fishing trip, depending on availability. Please contact me directly for availability and package information.
If you have questions about the fishing trip, what to bring, or the nightly rental, feel free to reach out. I'm happy to help you plan your visit to Rend Lake.

Captain Jeff provided a great fishing experience. The weather conditions weren't the greatest, but we made the best of the day. We loved being out on the lake and checking out the scenery while fishing. Jeff even gave us some extra fish that he had on hand since we didn't catch that many fish. Jeff was patient and explained the best ways to catch the fish, we just need more practice!! We would definitely book with him again.
Thank you very much Steve. Yes the weather wasn't very good for fishing. I believe we still had over 20 crappie. Hopefully your next trip the weather will be much better. Stay safe out there & I'll see you this fall.
Had an awesome trip with Jeff at Rend Lake – Lakeside Guide Services. We hit our limit and were on slab crappies the whole time. What really stood out was how efficient everything was. no fancy tech, just pure experience and knowledge of the water. Jeff knows exactly where to go and how to stay on fish. You can tell he’s been doing this a long time, and it shows in the results. If you want a guide who gets you on fish and keeps it simple and effective, this is your guy. Highly recommend will definitely be back
Thank you so much. I had a great time with you guys. we caught some nice crappie today. looking forward to you guys coming back.
JEFF IS THE BEST REAL CLASS ACT HAD A GREAT TIME. IF YOU CAN LISTEN AND FOLLOW DIRECTIONS HE WILL PUT YOU ON THE FISH! IF YOU CAN HOLD A POLE YOU WILL CATCH FISH WITH THIS GUY HE IS THE FISH WHISPERER…HAD A GREAT TIME WILL BE BACK
Thanks Steve. We had alot of fun yesterday. You guys are really cool. Hope you all come back and fish with me again.
Had a great day fishing on Rend Lake today with Captain Jeff. Experienced guide, nice boat and good equipment - we caught a mess of crappie! Jeff knows where to go to catch fish! AND he and his wife cleaned them all for me! I recommend Lakeside Guide Services and plan to book with them again. Larry Kinzer P.S. Jeff and Teresa have an Airbnb in Ina that they rent if you need overnight accommodations.
Thanks buddy. I had a great time fishing with you.Come back and let's get after them again.
We had a wonderful time with Captain Jeff. He was extremely knowledgeable and made the fishing trip a joy instead of chore for my husband. We can thank him enough and look forward to a fall fishing trip!
Thank you Terri I'm so happy you both caught plenty of crappie today. Hope to see you back this fall it should be even better. Safe travels.
