anyone ever use a guide for crappe fishing? I used them for salt water fishing but never thought of using one for fresh water. I was thinking of getting one. could be a way to catch a lot of fish and have fun and maybe learn a bit more so I could catch more on my own, just wandering if anyone else ever done something like that.

Be safe and good luck fishing
I don't know of any to recommend but I will say to talk with several before deciding which one to use. Make a list of questions to ask and what you expect from the guide. The difference can be day and night. Good luck and enjoy your trip. It can be the best money you ever spent.

What SB said and make sure you ask the guide if he is willing to teach if your goal is to learn a particular technique. Most are, but there are some whose only goal is to put you on fish. Here on Kentucky Lake we have guides whose specialty is a certain technique and many utilize these guides with the primary function to learn that specialty, rather than actually catching fish.

I totally agree with this statement. The only time I have used a guide for crappie fishing was to learn how to troll crankbaits. I was up front about that with the guide and he was more than OK with that, he spent a lot of time showing me the fundamentals and methods on how to do it. I was also up front with him that the primary lake I fish was also the primary lake he guides on and would it bother him if he came into an area where he took me on the guide trip and I was there fishing. He said no it's not a problem. Since then that has actually happened on a few occasions, I look to see if I think he's guiding and if I think so I pick up and go somewhere else just to be courteous. We've become good friends and I even call him from time to time to see if the fishing is any good at certain locations and he is more than happy to give advise.

We went to Lake Grenada this spring to fish. As it was our first trip and we only had 3 days I hired a guide for the first half day. It worked out real good and I would do it again if the opportunity arises. That beats spending the first day searching for fish and not possibly finding them
yes I have, and it turned into a pretty good friendship
typically guides know the bodies of water they hit real well and many specialize in certain techniques , i would think if you want to learn a certain spot or technique it would be a great investment .

Wouldn't try to fish a new lake without one! My fishin' buddy and I get to visit a few more lakes than
others, so we try to find a local guide to help us learn the best ways to fish and the some of the secrets
in those lakes. I think a good guide is worth the money we have paid!
