Ziehnert Guide Service LLC is now booking winter ice-fishing trips! They are a Top Rated Guide Service that fishes out of insulated and heated ice shelters to keep you and your family warm the entire time you are there. By fishing mostly private access and private lakes they have the highest catch rate of any charter in the capital region.

You won’t have to travel far to fish these remote lake waters, including a few honeyholes that only your local ice fishing guide can clue you in on. Expect to get in touch with your ice fishing guide before the trip so you know where to meet and how to get there.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Crappie, Atlantic Salmon, Yellow Perch, Lake Trout, Northern Pike, and whatever else takes the bait. You’ll catch the fish by jigging. Your guide will provide rods, reels, ice shelters, bait and tackle.

Any keeper fish caught during the trip is yours to take with you. That’s dinner, right there! Groups as large as 5 are welcome on this guided experience. You’ll make your way to the fishing grounds on foot, so be sure to dress for current weather conditions and bring only as much as you can carry.

Everyone in your group should buy a local fishing license ahead of time. You can find out more online, including exceptions that may apply. Be sure to dress in layers and suitable footwear (if you aren’t sure what that means, just ask). It’s never a bad idea to bring bottled water, sunblock, and sunglasses in any weather conditions.

Your ice fishing adventure is calling, now let Ziehnert Guide Service take you there!
