Book your next trip with The Mille Lacs Angler and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Isle for more. Your guide for the day is Captain Dereke, which allows you to benefit from years of angling experience.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Walleye, and plenty more. During the trip, you will be bobber fishing with light tackle.

The Mille Lacs Angler welcomes kids aboard, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Child-sized life vests are available for emergencies, otherwise, you should bring your own for comfort if you would like your child to wear one the whole time they are on the water. Snacks are never a bad idea to keep their stamina going!

Capt. Dereke operates a 40’ Pontoon with space for 12 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Dereke will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures and live bait.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it’s customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

Before coming aboard, it is required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

It’s recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Great time!
Half Day Trip (PM) on August 10, 20265 adults

Captain Derek and Mate Andy (a cute blond girl!) took great care of us on his big pontoon. Good conversation and instruction where needed, all easy-going and friendly. Captain Derek moved around the lake to multiple spots to make sure we found the fish, and they both re-baited us when needed. Great time for our family, enjoyed the evening.

Dereke and Randee were awesome
Half Day Тrip (AM) on July 3, 20256 adults2 children

We had a great time and caught some beautiful fish, and even though we would love to catch more (which you can’t control) Dereke and Randee made everything so easy, were great to talk to and learn from, and we also got to see some beautiful wildlife on Mille Lacs. Our whole group really enjoyed the trip and I would definitely recommend it to others!
