Flip’n Jigz Crappie Guides runs fishing trips on some of the best angling lakes in Illinois – Decatur, Shelbyville, and Clinton. They know these waters thoroughly and keep their fingers on the fish pulse throughout the year.

Your guide for the day will be Trent Trudeau, whose main priority is to get you on some fish. You’ll typically fish on light tackle, using a variety of techniques based on the species you’re targeting. On a typical day on the water, you’ll be fishing for Crappie, before moving on to the likes of Walleye, Bass, and even Catfish, depending on the specific season and the day’s weather.

Your adventure begins on board a 20’ Skeeter boat, capable of fitting up to 4 guests at a time. Since rods and reels aren’t included in the price of the trip, please bring your own or get in touch with the captain about renting options. Also, make sure you get your fishing licenses prior to the trip.

The trips are family-friendly, so you’re welcome to bring your kids along for the ride. You’ll be able to keep whatever legal catch you land during the trip and your guide will clean the fish. That way, you’ll have everything set for a delicious dinner once you’re back home.

Before your trip, make sure to shoot a message to Trent and agree on the lake you’ll be fishing on. Once that’s sorted, all that’s left is to enjoy your day fishing with Flip’n Jigz Crappie Guides.
