    Great morning on our family fishing trip!

    2 Hour Trip (AM) • 4 adults • 2 children

    Went fishing with 3 kids ranging in age from 11-13. Everyone had a great time and was engaged the entire time. We almost caught our limit of trout and couldn’t believe our time was up - it flew by! Even watching Derek clean and filet the fish was an experience for the kids. We started at 7 am and glad the kids had hoodies. It warmed up by 8 though to a very comfortable morning! Would 100% do this trip again!

    Reported catch:
    Rainbow Trout (Steelhead)

    So much fun!

    3 Hour Trip (Custom Timing) • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had the absolute best time bass fishing with Captain Derek in Branson! He was incredibly knowledgeable, so attentive, and just an all-around wonderful guide. Our kids are already asking when we can go fishing with Derek again which pretty much says it all! We made unforgettable family memories thanks to the incredible experience Derek provided.

    Best Guide You will finf

    4 Hour Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Derek was an amazing God it was a great experience. He worked and worked and worked until he finally got what he wanted. We got a 20 1/2 inch brown trout even if we hadn’t done that we caught Ten trout and he was just worked his butt off to make sure we got our moneys worth and had a good time. He is worth the money definitely and tip him well.

    Excellent fishing with Captain Derrick . He went the extra mile to make sure me and my grandson not only caught fish, by moving around and trying different bait, but that we were comfortable and had fun.
