Ice Fishing

In the winter I fish from the safety of my 8 wheel drive Argo which has tracks to get through the deepest snow and in the event that we should break through the ice, it floats!

Comfortable portable ice shacks provided by Frabill keep us out of the elements to make the day that much more enjoyable. With tip-ups and jig poles from Frabill we will be ready to ice those lunkers.

Once there is safe ice covering the lakes it’s time to walk on water. We fish for multi Species throughout the winter, including Northern Pike, Walleye, Trout, Bluegills, Crappie, and Yellow Perch. When the game fish season closes in March the focus then turns to panfishing.

Large groups are always welcome and we can accommodate every one from family reunions to corporate outings. (These may require additional guides.) Contact me with your plans.
