Professional Bass fisherman since 1990. Qualified for 4 Bassmaster Classics and won 2 Bassmaster events. Also, qualified for 4 straight FLW Forrest Wood Cups! Meanwhile, I've been guiding full time since 1990 on Lake St. Clair, Lake Erie, Detroit River and on St. Clair River. I also guide in Northern Michigan. I've learned and honed my skills and now enjoy teaching novice to professional anglers how to better approach bass and techniques to catch them! I guide in Central Florida for Bass in the winter months and enjoy the change in scenery, warm temperatures and giant Bass!! 2026 will be my 35th year guiding in Florida! Started on Lake Okeechobee (still guide there some) and moved to central Florida in 2005. I fell in love with fishing at a very young age just fishing off the banks/docks and small boats as a kid. 35 years experience I believe makes me one of the best guides on the lakes!

    Fantastic Smallmouth Fishing!

    Ganztagesausflug2 Erwachsene

    My wife & I have a daughter that lives in the Detroit area. In 9/2024, we came up to visit her. Have seen many shows on the Outdoor channel on fishing Lake St.Claire. Started looking online for a guide to fish with “Art of fishing” was at the top of the page. Contacted him to see if he had a day open to fit our schedule. Turns out it was one of the best calls I have ever made. That day last September we caught many nice quality small mouth. With my wife catching one at 5lbs. Art has many years experience on this gigantic beautiful lake. With vast knowledge of what the fish are doing, what the bait fish & shad are doing, water temp, and water color, and he has a recipe for small mouth success! It’s not like you’re fishing with a guide but you’re fishing with a friend. We fished with Art this September for two days. I’m not going to give numbers but we caught many, many quality small mouth both days. Many over 4+ lbs. I caught my PB with a 5 lb 12 oz. monster! Art will work his tail off to put you on fish! Give him a call you won’t be disappointed!! C & CH

    Best. Fishing Trip. Ever

    Ganztagesausflug4 Erwachsene

    Best. Fishing Trip. Ever. We booked a trip with Art Ferguson for my son’s 13th birthday, and it turned into the fishing experience we’ll be talking about for years. My son and two of his buddies were buzzing with excitement, and Art delivered in every way imaginable. We absolutely slammed the smallmouth—70 landed in the boat, with even more we should’ve had! And get this: 10 of those fish were over 4 pounds. That’s not just a good day on the water—that’s legendary. But the real win wasn’t just the numbers. It was Art’s patience, humor, and heart. He took the time to teach the boys, joke with them, and make each one feel like a pro. It wasn’t just a guided trip—it felt like we were out with an old friend who genuinely cared about making the day unforgettable. From the moment we stepped on the boat, Art handled everything with ease and warmth. The weather was perfect, the fish were biting, and the vibe was pure joy. He made the boys laugh, encouraged them, and gave them a birthday memory that’s going to live in family lore forever. If you’re looking for a guide who knows the water, connects with kids, and turns a day of fishing into something truly special—Art Ferguson is your guy. We were blessed with a beautiful day, but even more blessed to spend it with someone who made it an amazing day!

    Awesome trip!

    Halbtagesausflug (Morgen)2 Erwachsene

    Art was awesome and very knowledgeable. He took us to multiple locations when the fish were slow to bite. Weather was great, which also made for a fun time. Anyone wishing to have a great time on the water pulling in small-mouth bass should book a trip. Make sure you prepare for possible poor weather on the lake.

    We had an excellent trip! Weather was nice but the wind was blowing tough. Art still knew where to go and put us on the fish! Our 4 year old had a blast! Would recommend Art to anyone looking to make a guide trip!
