Rambling Rose Guide Service is a veteran-owned and operated company that specializes in family fishing adventures in Central Illinois. Join Captain Nicholas Rose in Sullivan and embark on a wonderful trip to Lake Shelbyville or a nearby river where you’ll meet various prized species as well as enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

You’ll fish from a 20’ SeaArk aluminum fishing boat, one of the best-equipped, if not the best-equipped boat in the area. It only uses the finest tackle and equipment, all of which will be provided to you at no cost. The boat can sit up to 2 guests and is powered by a 150 HP Suzuki engine. It uses modern navigation technology, a wireless trolling motor, and has got a livewell to supply you with live bait.

Trolling on light tackle, you and the captain will target Crappie, White Bass, and Walleye. You get to keep all your catch and you’re free to bring children on your trip so you can have a great time in nature together.

Captain Nicholas provides you with all the rods, reels, and tackle, as well as live bait and lures. You’ll also get catch cleaning for free. What you should bring on your trip is fishing licenses, food, and drinks.

Visit Rambling Rose Guide Service and have a great time fishing!

GREAT FAMILY TIME
5 Hour Trip – Crappie Fishing on May 8, 2022
First good choice was booking with Nick! Second good choice was inviting my brother and my nephew. The locals told me I would be very happy with Nick and that truly was an understatement! Nick is both professional and just a fun guy to hang out with. He was there ready to go with boat in the water gear ready and bait fresh. His knowledge of the lake and just crappie was awesome. His boat and equipment was fantastic. What we really enjoyed about Nick is how he interacted with us all day. It was like fishing with an old friend more than with a guide. He truly has a servants heart and cares both about his clients and nature as a whole. We have already booked again for the fall of this year. We have booked with guides from anything from hunting to fishing to sailing and cliff climbing and Nick by far is at the top of that list of top notch guides. Being a veteran myself I always look to support other veterans and in this case it was everything I hoped for. Time is so valuable today more than ever and the need to relax and enjoy your time is also at a premium today. So if you’re looking to do both they fishing look no further than Nick Rose! Thanks again Nick for a wonderful family day !

Crappie Fishing With Captain Nick
5 Hour Trip – Crappie Fishing on April 1, 20222 adults
With Rambling Rose Guide Service no details are missed. From booking to follow up calls to cleaning our hefty limit of crappies Captain Nick ensured we had an experience to remember. My son and I had a great time and will be back for future trips guaranteed! All we can say is “Thank You” for taking the time to not only assist us with techniques for catching crappie but to teach us how to be better fisherman as well. - Chris and Andrew

The captain was patient of to wait an hour for the weather to pass after that. It was on fish galore. No time for texting just catch catch catch. They ended up being beautiful and the crappies were hungry. Highly recommend

Started off the trip quickly catching crappies, followed by more crappies. We had an amazing time on the water with good company. Captain Nick is very personable and professional. Already looking to set another date to fish with him again. Fish on!
