Capt Steve was a fantastic guide. Very knowledgeable of Lake Taneycomo and put us on fish and very pleasant to fish along side. Finished the day with 40 fish between 2 people on a 4 hour trip. I would highly recommend using his service and will definitely use him again next time.

Not a bad seat in the place, great for affordable night at the ballpark with family. We go to several games throughout the season. Only negative I would comment about is this year they changed their pizza. It's awful. Seriously probably the worst frozen pizza I've ever had. As long as you don't get the pizza, you'll have a good time!

Booked a last minute fishing trip with Phil that I found through a Google search. Phil was very easy to communicate with and for the trip set up in short time. The weather wasn’t cooperating , but Phil’s knowledge of the area and the fish we were after helped us. Will be back next year. Thanks Phil! - Elijah and Ron
