Now Offering IL Guided Fishing Trips!

Our guide service offers personalized, one-on-one fishing trips that dive deep into the art of reading and understanding forward-facing sonar and side scan to locate and catch crappie. Each session focuses on teaching anglers the essentials of crappie behavior—how to interpret their movements, entice a strike, and bait presentation. You'll learn real-time on the water firsthand experience on how to use forward facing sonar effectively and make decisions that lead to increased catch rates in the future.
To enhance your experience, each trip includes a comprehensive cheat sheet detailing the latest Livescope settings we use, a breakdown of our recommended gear, and a list of exclusive product discounts, giving you the tools to keep honing your skills long after the trip.
