Meet Your Guide
Captain Peyton Beckwith
“That opportunity changed my life.”
I’ve fished the surrounding lakes all my life, and four years ago I was given the opportunity to work as a deckhand for one of the longest-serving fishing guides in Hot Springs. That opportunity changed my life.
Along the way, I’ve been mentored by many other guides. I’ve learned the best ways to approach the business and how to treat customers fairly.
Today, I am proud to be one of the youngest fishing guides in Hot Springs, and I look forward to sharing my passion for fishing and creating unforgettable experiences for every client who steps into my boat.

What to Bring
