Cody Willis is the best out there. He is extremely patient, and made our fishing experience a great one. We have used him twice so far, and each time he has been fantastic. He knows the White River like the back of his hand. We caught our limit both times and couldn’t be happier. He is hilarious and will keep you laughing! We highly recommend Cody! You won’t be sorry!! Give Cody a call.

Cody was our guide. He knew the river very well and knew exactly where to take us. He's very good at what he does and holds a conversation with you while helping. Can't wait to bring the kids next time and have them catch some trout! Thanks, Cody!

If you are in search of the perfect guide, let me introduce to you Cody Willis, we have been using his service for all of our fishing trips (6 so far this year). He knows what kind of fishing pole I like, and also knows that I like to bait my own line. His knowledge of the River and where the good spots are( Trophy Browns)...I highly recommend this guide. BTW he likes ice cream. He will have earned it by the end of your trip. See you soon Cody Chris and Helene
