Meet YOUR GUIDES
Propst Captains
Bob Propst Jr, son of fishing legend Bob Propst Sr, has blazed a legendary fishing career himself. Jr was the 1991 PWT Rookie of the Year, the first in the history of walleye fishing. Some other major accomplishments in his storied career include 2 PWT Victories and 1 RCL(FLW) Win. Jr was 1/2 of the 2011 MWC West Team of the Year, which are just a few of his accomplishments on a legendary resume.
Bob Jr has spent over 40 years of his life guiding, beginning at the age of 14 along the shores of Lake McConaughy. Bob’s deep passion of catching walleye has taken him across the country, cashing checks in not only South Dakota and Nebraska but also in Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and even down in Arkansas.
Following in the footsteps of these anglers, Mason has had a rod in his hand his whole life. Learning from these legends Mason has a deep understanding of targeting walleyes across the country. He calls the Missouri River home where he lives in Pierre, SD. Mason spends the bulk of his time chasing walleyes on Lake Sharpe or Lake Oahe.

BOOK A DAY TO REMEMBER
If fishing the Missouri River System or Western Reservoirs of Nebraska is on your bucket list, look no further than Propst Professional Anglers. With Bob or Mason at the helm, you’ll have an experienced and knowledgeable guide.
Walleye are the targeted species with PPA but you might also catch other species such as Smallmouth Bass. Bottom-bouncing is likely how you will catch your fish with rod in-hand but other methods may be used depending on conditions. Propst Professional Anglers is a kid-friendly guide service. If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board.
Before your trip can take place, you’ll need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. You can purchase those online here, or you ask Bob or Mason where to purchase.
