Reddy Guide Service offers professionally guided fishing trips in Wisconsin and Arizona, led by Captain John Reddy, a seasoned guide with over 40 years of fishing experience and more than two decades of guiding anglers on lakes, rivers, and Great Lakes waters. As a Wisconsin native, Captain John built his reputation guiding anglers throughout Southeastern Wisconsin, spending countless days on Delavan Lake, Geneva Lake, local rivers, and Lake Michigan. Today, he continues to guide in his home state while also offering trips on major Arizona reservoirs in the Phoenix area, bringing Midwest knowledge and hospitality to the desert Southwest. In Wisconsin, trips focus on inland lakes, river systems, and inshore Lake Michigan fishing, with opportunities available throughout all four seasons, including ice fishing when conditions allow. Captain John understands seasonal fish movements, structure, and patterns, and adjusts each trip based on conditions and angler goals. Guests can expect a hands-on, educational experience while learning effective techniques such as casting, jigging, trolling, and live-bait presentations. Arizona trips are based on popular Phoenix-area lakes and destination waters, where Captain John applies his experience to desert fisheries. These trips are ideal for visiting anglers and locals looking to better understand Arizona waters, electronics, and seasonal approaches. Whether fishing deep structure, open water, or shoreline areas, Captain John focuses on putting guests in productive areas and helping them improve their skills. Reddy Guide Service operates clean, well-maintained, professionally equipped boats in both states. In Wisconsin, anglers fish from an Alumacraft Tournament Pro 185 Big Tiller outfitted with advanced Humminbird and Garmin electronics, dual LiveScope systems, 360 imaging, premium trolling motors, and a Yamaha four-stroke outboard. In Arizona, trips are run from a Skeeter ZXR 21 bass boat equipped with top-tier electronics, shallow water anchors, and a powerful Yamaha outboard for safe and efficient travel. Every trip with Reddy Guide Service is customized to match your experience level, interests, and goals. Captain John prides himself on strong work ethic, patience, and attention to detail, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and memorable day on the water for individuals, families, and small groups Guests are responsible for valid fishing licenses, and all tackle and instruction are provided to help you make the most
