Fantastic guides for a fantastic experience!
Our guide, Wayne, and Tommy were the absolute best! It was a chilly morning and they even had a heater to make sure we stayed warm! We each caught a beautiful paddlefish within a short time. They continued to let us fish for other fish, offering us his famous sub sandwiches to munch on. Best fishing trip ever!

Paddlefish fishing targets one of North America’s most unusual freshwater game fish. Paddlefish are ancient, plankton-feeding giants with long, paddle-shaped snouts. Anglers chase them for their size, raw power, and the chance to land a true river trophy.
Because Paddlefish filter-feed, they rarely strike baits or lures. Most anglers target them by snagging, which means casting large weighted treble hooks and pulling steadily until the hook meets a fish. Strong rods, heavy line, and durable reels help handle deep current and big, fast runs.
A typical trip focuses on deep river channels, current seams, and areas below dams. Expect repeated casts, steady retrieves, and sudden, heavy hookups. Fights can be intense and very physical, so this suits anglers who enjoy a challenge. Wear eye protection and gloves, and dress for changing weather. Bring water, sun protection, and a camera. If harvest is allowed, plan clean, iced storage for fresh meat.
Rules for Paddlefish fishing vary widely and change often. Always check local fishing license and permit requirements before your trip. Confirm open seasons, legal methods, and any special tags or reporting. Review size or harvest rules, and know when catch-and-release is required. When in doubt, ask your captain or local authorities for current guidance.
