L.V.O. Sportfishing 

5.0/5 (2 reviews)
 Minocqua, Minocqua, WI 54548, United States

Make the most of your time in the Northwoods and go fishing with L.V.O. Sportfishing, specializing in multi species guided fishing charters in Lincoln, Vilas, and Oneida counties.

Depending on the trip, you might hook into Walleye, Northern Pike, Bass, Crappie, Musky, Sunfish, Lake Trout, Lake Whitefish, and anything else that bites. You’ll target your catch by casting, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized like sharpshooting. Any fish within the legal limit are yours to take home but catch & release is commended for others to enjoy the resource . Capt. Tim will even clean your catch for you. Pack a cooler ready in the car!

You’ll step aboard a 19’ Alumacraft 185 competitor tiller, with space for 3 passengers. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, along with live bait if needed. L.V.O offers high-quality gear and the latest electronics. Mega-live is a game-changer and more often than not it puts more fish in the boat at the end of the day! 

People in your group will need to buy your Wisconsin fishing license before your trip. Some essentials you’ll want to bring are sunglasses, sunblock, snacks, drinks, and a hat. Kids are welcome aboard and children under the age of 12 fish for free. Please bring the appropriate sized life jacket for your child.

"I promise a day on the water will be fun, educational, and full of laughs!"

For as long as I can remember, I've been addicted to fishing. I moved to Northern Wisconsin with my family when I was in high school, just to be closer to the lakes in Northern Wisconsin. I've spent the last 20 years learning lakes, patterns, and presentations in Lincoln, Vilas, and Oneida counties. I have a solid work ethic and take pride in pushing myself daily to learn and grow. I love to teach, love to smile, and love to have fun! I promise a day on the water will be fun, educational, and full of laughs.
