I would recommend Fred Mooney as a good fishing guide. He seemed to know the area well. After the Strom's late last night. We where able to still catch a nice mess of fish.

Our trip with Jeff was really great! He is fun to be around, and a very nice guy. His experience on the lake is evident, as he got us unto the fish even in the middle of the summer heat. We had a great day and went home with plenty of fish. His Airbnb right next door is also very comfortable and very handy if you want to get an early start and get on the water quickly. I would definitely recommend Jeff to anyone who wants to fill the boat with nice slab crappie!

I ran a little late for the scheduled time unfortunately but Jeff was still able to put me on fish. We caught a mess of Crappie and nice largemouth bass to boot. Good times on light tackle lol.

Took my son and his friend…they were basically first timers…chose Full Moon bc of the great reviews and am sooooo glad I did! Fred was extremely nice, very accommodating, patient with my “not-so-attentive” kiddos, had super cool gear and gadgets, and his prices were very reasonable. We had a great experience and can’t wait to go back again someday soon! Thanks Fred!

My wife and I chartered a morning outing, and everything was fine. We caught several good sized Crappie, more than I expected considering that it is the middle of July. We then fished for some catfish just for fun, releasing all of them back. Fred Mooney is certainly an experienced guide who we will use again when we are fishing in Southern Illinois. I highly recommend him.

It was a great Grandfather, father, son fishing day trip. Fred Mooney is top notch. He knows the lake, has great equipment, and is a genuine person. We caught good crappie and had a lot of fun sitting on top of a school of catfish with light tackle. Even with the fish scattered this time of year, he was still able to dial them in given the current lake and wind conditions. We highly recommend him and will be back.

There were some issues that were out of the captains control that he handled quickly and professionally. He put us onto some great fish dispute the poor weather conditions and time of year for crappie. Great trip will be booking again.

The guys had a great time, even being their first time fishing for crappie! Fred had a camera below the boat to assist with the location of the crappie, making it even more exciting for my 11 year old son! They kept about 23 fish, which Fred filleted and bagged up for them to take home. All I heard was excitement for booking a future trip during a better time of year! Definitely would recommend Full Moon!
