Jack Uxa
Jack has been working
in the fishing industry since 1997, and he’s been fishing Lake of the Ozarks
since he was a child. His first job ever was working at a local St. Louis
tackle store, Paul’s Bait and Tackle, counting night crawlers and taking care
of the crickets and minnow system. Jack moved to the Ozarks to go to college,
and during that time worked at Bass Pro Shopsin the fishing department. He
started fishing and winning club tournaments, and then as a Co-Angler on some larger
regional fishing circuits.
Jack worked as a
fishing guide for two years in the Minnesota Boundary Waters before moving to
the Lake of the Ozarks. In 2003, he started his own guide service called simply
“Jack’s Guide Service”, which has become increasingly successful each year.
Jack is a U.S. Coast Guard licensed Lake of the Ozarks guide. In 2005, he was
offered the Head Guide position at Tan-Tar-A Resort, a position he still holds.
Jack is out on the Lake of the Ozarks about 300 days each year!
He’s put in a lot of
hard work and in 2008 he grew his business to full-time work in 2008. Even
after thousands of trips he still thoroughly enjoys helping people catching
fish. That’s his goal and where he gets the most enjoyment out of his life when
he helps someone succeed in fishing.
