At first, I had reservations about booking a trip without any reviews. However, when I saw that Captain Brien had recently launched his guide service and noted his impressive credentials, I decided to take the leap. I can honestly say that Brien exceeded my expectations! Our fishing trip was not only great but also remarkably enjoyable. We reeled in more bass than I can recall catching in recent memory. Brien's extensive knowledge and his ability to make the trip thoroughly enjoyable were outstanding. So, allow me to be one of the inaugural reviewers, and I wholeheartedly give it a 5-star rating! Rest assured, we'll be returning for more.

May 29, 2025

For those seeking an unforgettable fishing experience in Branson, this is the trip you must reserve! Brien served as an exceptional guide, consistently leading us to abundant catches throughout the entire day. Despite our visit falling outside the peak fishing season, our expectations were exceeded. Inclement weather postponed our departure, but Brien's flexibility and quick action ensured we set out without encountering any rain. We're already planning our return visit; our experience was truly remarkable, and we can't wait to embark on another fishing adventure with Brien.

May 29, 2025

It was an absolute delight to share the day with Captain Brien. Despite uncooperative weather conditions, Captain Brien's expertise shone through. His impressive technology enhances the chances of a successful fishing trip. I highly recommend giving him the opportunity to provide you with a fantastic experience.

May 29, 2025

While the fish weren't too cooperative, Captain Brien ensured we had an enjoyable time. Even my girlfriend and her daughter, who aren't avid anglers, had a great experience. Plus, the fact that Brien provided us with a comfortable new 21' bass boat didn't hurt. We'll definitely return for another trip with Brien in the future.

May 29, 2025

Our experience was fantastic. I was eager to engage in deep-sea fishing with a drop shot, and Brien exceeded our expectations. It was truly captivating to witness the fish's reactions to our bait through his state-of-the-art ActiveTarget electronics. Brien adeptly demonstrated how the fish responded to various presentations. I wholeheartedly endorse his services and will unquestionably book with him again on our next visit.

May 29, 2025

Brien exceeded our expectations. All I was looking for was a wonderful fishing excursion with my three sons, and he truly came through. The morning was absolutely perfect, and we had a fantastic time. My sons couldn't stop discussing it for the remainder of the day. Without a doubt, we'll be returning next year, and I'm already in discussions with my friends to arrange a similar trip. I can confidently say that I won't seek the services of any other guide in the future. Brien is truly exceptional! Thank you immensely for the unforgettable experience!
