I've been doing meet-and-greets with fellow anglers and fishing enthusiasts for well over 30 years and the question that I'm most frequently asked by fans is "How can I catch trophy fish like you?". Typically my response is: "You need a little skill, a lot of luck, the right equipment, and (most importantly) a great guide!" It's for this reason that I've decided to launch the Bill Dance Endorsed Fishing Guide Program. The freshwater and saltwater guides listed below are the best in the business and I personally recommend all of them to my friends, family, and especially to the visitors of BillDanceOutdoors.com!

So if you want to plan a great fishing trip and give yourself the best opportunity to catch that trophy fish, please contact the guides below!
