Get hooked with James Addiction Charter Fishing! Welcome to beautiful Knife River, Minnesota. This is home to some of the best fishing in the state, including Trout, Salmon, and Walleye. USCG Certified, MN DNR licensed, and fully insured Captain James Hall (aka Captain Jimmy) will be your guide for the day.

Join your captain on “Sweet Release”, a fully equipped 34’ Tiara 3100, powered by 2 sporty 454 Crusader engines, boasting 350 HP each. Garmin electronics include state of the art Panoptix, fish locator, GPS, and Doppler Radar. Additional electronics include Fish Hawk X4, Raymarine Autopilot, and Bluetooth Stereo.

Only the best fishing equipment is used including Shimano rods, Penn Squall reels, Cannon Optimum downriggers, Traxtech Rod Holders, and Cisco electric aluminum planer reels.

All fishing gear and safety equipment are provided by the charter. A valid MN fishing license and Trout stamp are required and not provided by the charter, nor are they available at the dock so please plan ahead. Other than that, you just have to come aboard with a cooler for food and beverage, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a positive attitude ready to get out on the water! Let’s go fishing!

Fishing out of Two Harbors (Knife River) on the largest freshwater lake in the world is a unique and super fun way to spend time on a family vacation, a buddies getaway, business outing, or couple’s retreat. Consider all the memories you’ll catch out there and book now!

Captain James was very welcoming to our group. We hadn’t fished superior so Jimmy took the time to make sure that we all understood what was going to make this trip successful. Wonderful captain and boat. I would recommend him to everyone.

I've been fishing since I could walk. I got into fishing Lake Superior fishing 20 years ago shore casting, then small boat trolling, then ice fishing, and finally into the bigger boat. I'm a total fishing addict.
