“Located in Northwest Arkansas, our mission is to empower families by fostering lifelong skills and meaningful connections through the art of fishing. We equip individuals and families with the knowledge, hands-on experience, and confidence to develop self-reliance, appreciate nature, and practice sustainable fishing. Through patience, education, and shared experiences, we inspire a love for fishing that lasts a lifetime.”

We offer a variety of experiences, including fishing from shore or a boat. 

All include:

  • How to cast, knot tying, which bait to use, how to catch or set the fish on your line and netting or landing your catch

  • Fish Cleaning and tips on preparing your catch

  • All necessary fishing gear and tackle. You’re more than welcome to bring your own as well!

  • Material for reference, including information on what tackle and equipment was used so you can continue your fishing journey

  • Bottled Water

For the most impactful experience, time is spent teaching and learning in the moment and as things happen.

Each can also be tailored to your level of knowledge and comfort.

About Me

“Originally from North Dakota, I was fortunate to grow up spending time outdoors with my father, who instilled in me a deep appreciation for fishing, hunting, and nature. His teachings sparked a lifelong passion that I’m grateful to be able to share with my family and now others. Since living in Northwest Arkansas, my goal is to help individuals and families build confidence, create lasting memories, and develop a love for fishing through hands-on instruction and guided experiences.”
