Welcome to South Dakota Guided Fishing!

My name is Jarrod Fredericks, and I have spent more than 34 years fishing the lakes and rivers of South Dakota. For over a decade, I've helped anglers of all skill levels experience some of the best walleye, perch, crappie, northern pike, and bass fishing the Midwest has to offer.

Competitive fishing has played a major role in my career. I have competed on the National Walleye Tour and earned a Top-3 finish in the Angler of the Year standings. I also regularly compete in regional tournaments, including the Lake Area Walleye Club events and other competitive circuits throughout the Dakotas and Minnesota.

Fishing isn't just my profession—it's my passion and my lifestyle. When I'm not guiding clients on the water or ice, you'll likely find me fishing tournaments, scouting new patterns, or spending time in the field hunting South Dakota's world-class pheasants and waterfowl.

My background in the outdoor industry gives my clients a unique advantage. As the publisher of Outdoors Weekly Magazine and Tournament Guide Ice Fishing Magazine, I stay connected with the latest fishing techniques, technology, and equipment available. This allows me to provide clients with up-to-date information, proven strategies, and top-quality gear to maximize their success on the water.

Whether you're an experienced angler chasing trophy walleyes or a family looking to make memories together, my goal is simple: provide a safe, enjoyable, and successful day on the water while showcasing everything South Dakota has to offer.

I look forward to helping you create memories that will last a lifetime.
