Book your next trip with Barber Fishing Guide Service LLC and discover the incredible fishing experience at Lake of the Ozarks! With years of experience on this lake, Captain Chris is well-equipped to help you catch fish.

Our clients enjoy successful catches of various species including Crappie, Largemouth Bass, White Bass, Blue Catfish, and more. Please note that we do not fish for spoonbill.

During our charters, we utilize a range of techniques depending on conditions and the time of year. This may include casting, trolling, drift fishing, jigging, catfish jugs, or bottom fishing.

After your successful catch, we clean and prepare your fish for transport. You are allowed to keep up to your angler limit of Crappie, White Bass, and Catfish. Largemouth Bass, however, are catch and release only. We also provide ice for keeping your fish filets fresh.

You'll enjoy your fishing experience on a comfortable 24' Pontoon boat that can accommodate up to 6 anglers. The boat is equipped with everything you need for a productive day on the water. Additionally, there are toilet facilities available at our dock location and nearby marinas for your convenience.

Your captain will provide top-quality rods, reels, lures, and bait. We also use live bait when appropriate and beneficial for fishing. For most pontoon charters, a First Mate will be on board to ensure a smooth trip. It is customary to offer a gratuity of 10%-20% to the First Mate, as they often work for tips.

Prior to boarding, it is necessary for everyone in your group aged 16 and over to have a valid Missouri fishing license. We can provide a link to purchase licenses online or you can buy them at a local retailer, such as Walmart.

Trips with Barber Fishing Guide Service LLC are suitable for the whole family, so feel free to plan a fun-filled family day. As per regulations, children aged 8 and under must wear life vests, which we provide on board for all passengers. We also offer complimentary bottled water and cokes, and you are welcome to bring your own snacks.

While we have sunscreen and sunglasses available on the boat, you may prefer to bring your own. Treat yourself to an unforgettable day on the water with Barber Fishing Guide Service and create lifelong memories.
