Your Guided Trip
Eazy E Outfitting is your premier multi-species fishing outfitter in the beautiful Black Hills region of South Dakota, which means that we fish for anything from rainbow trout & walleyes to bluegills & crappies! Whether you are a novice or an experienced angler, I am dedicated to providing you with an unforgettable fishing experience.
Lakes & Species Include:
- Sheridan Lake: Rainbow Trout, Largemouth Bass, BULL Bluegill, Crappie, Yellow Perch + Trophy Northern Pike
- Pactola Lake: Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Lake Trout + Trophy Northern Pike
- Angostura Reservoir: Walleye + Slab Crappies
- Stockade Lake: Rainbow Trout, Crappie + Largemouth Bass
*I will always recommend what I think to be the best bite possible – some times of year are better than others depending on the species*
What I Provide
- Professional, educational, and fun-filled day on the water
- Premium fishing gear & tackle
- Live bait
- Fish processing & packaging
- Photos from your trip
- Life jackets (adult + youth sizes)
- Bottled water
I can accommodate up to 4 adults comfortably in my Ranger 620VS. Top of the line Humminbird + Garmin electronics (including dual livescopes!) are also used on your trip. My boat is also equipped with a Bimini top to deploy in the case of a rain event or relief from sunshine.
*If needing to accommodate groups larger than 4 adults (+ children), I have a great relationship with the local marinas on Sheridan & Pactola lakes to get you setup with pontoon rentals to better suit large groups, while also putting you on the fish*
What to Bring
- A current SD fishing license, or valid 1-3 day license. PURCHASE ONE HERE
- Sunglasses, hat + sunscreen

- Light rain gear (*I do have one extra rain jacket & pants [size XL] onboard)
- Snacks
- Cooler + ice to transport your packaged fillets
- Patience + a positive attitude
Where & When We Will Meet
We will meet at one of the boat ramps on whichever lake we are fishing – I will be in contact with you 1 or 2 days prior to determine the location. The boat will be in the water prior to your arrival/start time and ready to go. Note: All boat ramps on the lakes we fish do require daily use/parking permits that can be purchased when entering lake access points.
*Full-Day guide trips begin @ 7am MST (7 hours)
*Half-Day guide trips (4 hours) can be adjusted to accommodate the client’s schedule

Took my son in law and grandson out and we caught a ton of fish. Erik was great with Graham(5). Made sure he had a memorable time. If you’re looking for a fun day, book Erik, especially if kids are involved.
We had a great day fishing with Erik as our guide! I’ve been on several fishing charters and never had a captain so eager and driven to ensure the trip was successful. Erik was also patient, engaging, and fantastic with my son. Highly recommend booking Erik at EZ Outfitters for a fun, family-friendly fishing trip in the Black Hills.
Erik is an excellent guide and person! He helped us have an excellent, enjoyable day on the lake catching our limit of trout on a day when the weather was less than desirable but the adventure was priceless.
I had an incredible guided trip with Eric! From the moment we hit the water, he was knowledgeable, patient, and clearly passionate about fishing. He knew exactly where to take us, and sure enough, I landed a 32" northern pike—an absolute thrill! Eric made the entire experience enjoyable, from helpful tips on technique to sharing stories that kept the day fun and relaxed. If you’re looking for a professional guide who will put you on fish and make sure you have a great time, I highly recommend booking with Eric. I’ll definitely be back for another trip!
Had a great time fishing with Easy-E. He helped me beat my personal best pike limit, 20 minutes in no less. Then went and caught some rainbow trout one right after the other. Awesome company aswell with great conversations. Wasn't a single dull moment
