My family and I moved to Eureka Springs in the Fall of 2012, originally from South Tx. My passion for fishing and the outdoors ran deep. If I was not working as a career Fire fighter, EMT and Law enforcement officer, I was fishing in the Bay. When I moved to Eureka, I fell in love with the White River and I knew that even though the game fish were considerably smaller, I would make this a passion and Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service was born.
If I am not Volunteering as the Fire Chief and medical responder with our local Fire Department or managing the farm, I am fishing or hunting, trying to spend as much time in the outdoors as possible. Thank you for visiting my site, and I hope to be fishing with you soon!
Austin Kennedy started Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service in 2014 located in Busch, Arkansas, with him and a Tracker boat. "The passion for fishing and the outdoors was so strong when I moved here, that I wanted to do it 365/24-7. I have worked very hard and I am constantly striving to be successful by conducting "research" on the White River and the time I have off between customer trips. This is done for several reason such as, locating fish habitats, spawning times, water temperatures, bait location and bait preference. This way, I am able to provide our customers with the best fishing experience on the White River."
Since then, Austin has grown Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service into the largest, most recognized, top fishing guide services in the Eureka Springs area, winning multiple awards, becoming professionally sponsored, and featured in several publications. Austin and his highly experienced team of guides work closely with and have donated yearly trips to Ducks Unlimited (Kansas) Chapter, Buck Masters (NW Arkansas), Arkansas youth shooters Association, Bentonville County Quail, The Hope Project and Walmart Inc, where they sponsor fishing trips for their events.
Busch Mountain Fishing Guide Service is not like your typical Guide Service. Austin built his Guide Service with family in mind, and his guides are comprised of just that! "This is not a monopoly type buisness, nor do we just have anybody guiding our clients. We are comprised of retired/former emergency service personnel and veterans. All of the Busch Mountain Fishing Guides have an extensive background in fishing and were personally trained by Austin himself.
All of our fishing boats are up to date and highly maintained for fighting that possible fish of a lifetime. All equipment, from the Lowrance, Hummingbird and Garmin fishing graphs, to the fishing rods/reels are in great condition and maintained monthly, as to assist you in catching some of Arkansas finest fish species. We strive to make your trip something you can not easily forget because not only do we enjoy and thrive on letting folks experience this awesome fishery, but we want you and your family to return.
We want to get to know you, your family and be part of the family vacation that everyone can’t wait to do next year. We request that everyone we speak to, who is deciding on a fishing guide service to look at and read our current customer reviews and review the fishing photos before making a decision. Thank you for taking the time fir us to explain why we are the fishing guide for you and your family's fishing adventure.

This husband and wife couple were able to catch their limit in under an hour. I did notice where we were fishing that the water was nice and cool!
The rain we had really helped things along. As soon as the lines hit the water, they both were catching fish. A few slot fish were caught and released.
In all, it was a great morning on the river. I hope they enjoy the fish, as I will enjoy an ice pack.
