Meet Your Guide
Welcome to Big Lake Guide Service on beautiful Lake Sakakawea. I’m Aaron Hayden, your guide for unforgettable days on the water. I specialize in walleye and salmon fishing trips, and I’m also equipped to target Lake Sakakawea’s abundant smallmouth bass, northern pike, and catfish.
Whether you’re chasing your personal best or enjoying a relaxing day of fishing, I’ll help you make the most of every moment.

Proudly based in Riverdale, ND
For trips lasting one day or longer, we can help arrange comfortable lodging and recommend great local restaurants to make your stay enjoyable. With North Dakota’s constantly changing weather, your safety is always my top priority. I monitor conditions closely and make decisions with your well-being in mind.
My goal is simple: to give every client a great experience and a reason to come back. If weather or lake conditions become unsafe, I reserve the right to delay, end, or cancel a trip—even the night before. If that happens, you’ll be reimbursed appropriately.
