Great Fishing

6 Hour Trip – Table Rock2 adults

Captain Bryan Badock was fantastic! He is very professional, helpful and courteous. Within minutes of our first stop, we had fish in the boat, and this repeated at every additional stop. Caught small mouth, large mouth, and spotted bass, and Goggle Eye. We had a huge "surprise" fish that drug the boat around for about 15 minutes before we could finally see it, a 28.15 pound Carp (see photos). When we come back to Branson, we'll be signing up for another fishing trip with Bryan!

    Just hire him! Great guide!

    3 Hour Table Rock - 12:00 PM3 adults

    We had an unforgettable trip with Captain Brian today. From the moment we stepped onto his clean, comfortable boat, we knew we were in good hands. He kept us on fish for the entire three-hour trip and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great time. The biggest reason we booked this trip was because my wife’s dad, Bob, has Alzheimer’s, and there was one fish left on his bucket list—a walleye. We had already been told by several other guides that finding one just wasn’t likely. Brian didn’t make empty promises. He simply smiled and said, “I’ll give it hell. I know where they should be.” Sure enough, today we watched Bob catch a beautiful walleye. Seeing the excitement on his face was something our family will never forget. Those memories become even more meaningful when someone you love is living with Alzheimer’s, and Captain Brian understood how important this was to us. He made it happen through hard work, experience, and determination. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable guide who puts in the effort and truly cares about giving his clients a memorable experience, Captain Brian is the one to book. Thank you for helping us create a memory our family will treasure forever.

    Great Experience

    6 Hour Trip – Table Rock - 7:00 AM6 adults1 child

    Fishing Captain Bryan was an all around great experience with exceptional service and knowledge. Great with our 7 year old, 2 teenagers and 3 men. All of us with various fishing skills. Clean and comfortable boat. Captain Byran was in good contact with us prior to trip. Never had to wonder what was happening. Guided us to a pick up location so did not have to spend hours on the water to the perfect spot. Definitely recommend Badock's Guide Service.

    Capt Badock is amazing

    4 Hour Trip – Table Rock (11 AM)2 adults

    Before even booking Bryan has made himself 100% available for any questions text or call. That in itself already exceeded expectations. The weather leading up to the trip wasn't looking great but Bryan worked with it and around it even though it was Easter weekend. The prespawn made fish not want to fully commit at times but Bryans knowledge and persistence ultimately got us both hooked up on PB spotted bass and smallmouth. If I could give 1000 stars I would. We will definitely be using Bryan again. Thank You from Texas

    Amazing Teip

    4 Hour Trip – Table Rock (12pm)4 adults

    Bryan was very helpful commujicating kogistics and details. He was very accommodating to everyone. i brought my wife, fishing buddy, and his wife. Bryan knew exactly where to go. He gotcthe ladies on fish and we caught about 50 total in 4 hr trip. One of the better fishing guides that Ive ever used. I’d give more stars for rating if possible
