Pick Your Kind of Day on the Water
Half-Day Crappie Trips
A half-day trip is the best way to try Broken Bow Lake without giving up your whole day. We head out, find fish holding on brush and timber, and spend the morning or afternoon putting crappie in the boat. It suits first-timers, vacationers staying in Hochatown, and anyone who wants a fish fry without a long day.

Full-Day Crappie Trips
More hours on the water means more chances to move on the fish as they move. A full-day trip lets us work several spots, change depths and presentations, and chase the better bites when the action slows. It is the pick for serious crappie anglers and anyone hoping to fill the cooler.

Family Crappie Trips
Crappie are a great fish for kids: they bite steadily, they are fun to reel in, and they are excellent on the table. We keep things relaxed and patient, help the little ones bait up and land their catch, and make sure everyone has a good day on the lake.

Spring Spawn Crappie Trips
When the water warms in spring, crappie move up shallow to spawn and the fishing can be outstanding. We know how to read the shorelines, brush, and timber where they stage, and how to fish them without spooking the bite. Spring dates fill early, so call ahead.

Brush Pile & Structure Fishing
Crappie relate to cover. On Broken Bow Lake that means submerged timber, brush piles, and drop offs. We fish this structure with the right depth and presentation so you spend your time over fish instead of open water.
