Wild Cat Guide Service – Cincinnati
Wild Cat Guide Service – Cincinnati
If you're ready to go fishing in Cincinnati, on the Ohio River, or local lakes for Bruiser Catfish, look no further than Wild Cat Guide Service. Your guide for the day is Captain Mark, allowing you to benefit from 20+ years of professional experience.
These waters are known for Catfish, and with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. You'll target your catch by Anchoring, trolling, drifting or Bumping, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
You'll be casting lines from a 20' SeaArk aluminum fishing boat with room for 3 passengers. We have a Covered top for rainy days. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Rods and reels and bait are covered by the charter, Each adult will need a 1 Day Ohio or Ky fishing license available online. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Generally if you want to keep some Catfish, we allow fish under 8 lbs to be kept. We suggest bringing food/snacks and appropriate clothing hats sunglasses for the weather.
Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is NOT allowed per Insurance.
Now and then the fish might get away, but a day on the water never should. Time to make it happen, with Wild Cat Guide Service!

8 Hour Trip – Ohio River Catfish
Great day on the river with Captain Mark
What a wonderful day on the river. Captain Mark took myself, my wife and or our 8 year old son out for an 8 hour trip on the Ohio River. We netted some bait and were catching within an hour. We reeled the last one in right as we were heading back to the dock. Not only did we all catch fish (channel cats and blue cats), Mark was a great conversationalist and quite the tour guide. Even taking us up one of the inlets. Mark was very engaging and patient with our son. He was able to catch his first big blue. My wife was able to catch her first blue as well. Thanks, Captain Mark!

8 Hour Trip – Ohio River Catfish
Wild Cat guide services was an amazing!
Mark was a wonderful guide for my son's 15th birthday gift. Mark took the time to teach my son and his best friend how to caught Big Fish. And I also got to play in the excitement with my own fish. I recommend all you Father's and Mother's to take your son's or daughter's out on this Wild Cat adventure today It was a blessing from God to hang out with Mark! Catching Big Flathead Catfish is expressly cooler when they are around 30 lbs and 40 inches long so on my trip out with Mark thats what happened. It was turely a Beautiful experience I got with my boy and Mark as we made Fishing Great again with Wild Cat guide services!

8 Hour Trip – Ohio River Catfish
Unforgettable Morning on the Ohio River!
I booked a solo trip with Wild Cat Guide Service, and it was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. Captain was professional, friendly, and clearly knows his stuff, he had me on fish within the first hour. Caught some solid Blue Cats and enjoyed every minute out on the Ohio River. Great setup, smooth operation, and an all-around enjoyable day on the water. If you're looking for a serious catfishing trip with someone who knows the river inside and out, this is it. Highly recommend.

8 Hour Trip – Ohio River Catfish
August fishing trip
We didn't catch a lot of fish, but we had a great time. We learnt about the river, barges, and I caught my first blue catfish. Definitely doing it again.
