Click here to see what we've been catching!
We'll fish for anything that
is biting but
we target crappie most of the
time and we've developed a system for locating and catching
them
year around on
Lake Greeson,
about 45-miles southwest of
Hot Springs, Arkansas
between Murfreesboro and Glenwood.
Tammy also guides on Lake DeGray.
My son Owen is my First Mate (when not in school) and helps us clean fish.
OUR GUARANTEE: If we don't catch your dinner your next trip is FREE!!!
Call them what you will -
crappy, white perch, specks, sac-a-lait, calico bass
papermouths or whatever - we like catching them and love eating them!
But most of all, we enjoy
taking folks out on the water to "unwind" and
spend quality time making memories with their family and friends
while they catch a good "mess" of crappie.
While fishing for crappie we
often catch black bass, white bass,
bluegill,
catfish, an occasional striper or walleye and a few other species.
We all guide out of very stable, safe and comfortable
22' Blue Wave
Center Console Bay Boats

This video will give you an idea of what to expect on an Action Fishing Trip:
We
guide out of Self Creek Lodge and Marina,
just a mile west of Daisy
and recommend their beautiful cottages for your lodging needs.
The newly remodeled Daisy Motel is just a mile up the road.
Youngsters are welcome and no fishing experience is required.
Bottled drinking water, snack crackers, life jackets, bait and tackle are provided
but you're welcome to bring your own tackle and favorite snacks and beverages if you wish.
Sandwiches, pizza, beverages, ice and a variety of snacks are available at Self Creek Marina.We're never far from clean bathrooms and we'll take bathroom breaks whenever needed.
Fish that you want to keep are filleted and packaged for you to take home.
Each boat can accommodate up to four adults and two youngsters (or up to 1,100-pounds
maximum passenger weight) with plenty of room for everyone to fish comfortably.We offer half-day and full-day trips. Full-day trips are recommended
for the best opportunity to hit the peak feeding periods of the day.
Half-day fishing trips are $300 for one or two plus $25 for each additional adult
and last about 5-hours including time for pictures and filleting fish.Full-day fishing trips are $450 for one or two plus $35 for each additional adult
and last about 8-hours including time for pictures and filleting fish.There is no additional charge for youngsters 12 and under.
If you're not sure whether you want a half-day or full-day trip you can decide
after you see how the trip is going and talk it over with your guide.Visit the Calendar page to check our availability.

We usually start around sunrise but it's not always
necessary to start that early, especially in the cooler months.We usually take a lunch break on full-day trips but you are welcome to
bring your lunch if you prefer to fish through.There are no additional taxes or charges for fuel, bait, tackle,
supplies, drinking water or snacks.
Gift Certificates are available and make an excellent gift or
corporate incentive award that will be remembered.

will need
a current Arkansas fishing license, available
at any Arkansas Walmart or sporting goods stores, by calling

Bring your camera, Polarized sunglasses, wide-brimmed hats, raincoats
or ponchos (just in case), warm clothes and boots in cool weather and
don't forget an ice chest to take your fresh fillets home in!If you have friends or family members that don't care to fish but enjoy
wildlife and scenery, bring them along. Bald eagles, osprey, great blue herons,
waterfowl, deer, otter, beaver and other wildlife are often seen on a fishing trip.
