Types of Iowa Guided Fishing Trips
General Inland
Iowa inland fishing guides generally operate out of walleye or bass style boats. They take 1-3 people out at a time and are found all over the state. The Missouri, Mississippi, and other Iowa rivers have seasonal runs of sauger, walleye, smallmouth, and white bass. Iowa fishing guides offer fantastic opportunities throughout the state on Iowa’s many lakes and reservoirs including Spirit, Red Rock, and Rathbun Lakes.
Fly Fishing
Iowa fly fishing guides offer traditional fly fishing experiences for brook, brown, and rainbow trout on the states streams and rivers but fly fishing opportunities also exist on many Iowa lakes and reservoirs for hard fighting smallmouth bass and many game fish. Iowa fly fishing guides can help teach a beginner to cast a fly rod or help a seasoned fly fisherman locate more fish. Popular locations include Iowa’s Great Lakes area, Spring Branch Creek, and many small streams throughout Iowa.
Ice Fishing
Although Iowa ice fishing guides operate seasonally and are dependent on safe ice, there are usually 4 months of consistent ice. Iowa ice fishing guides can provide heated shanties and concentrate on icing walleye, northern pike, and panfish throughout the season. There is no better way to cure a little “cabin fever” than hiring a Iowa ice fishing guide to put you on the fish.
