If you plan on fishing in the Brainerd Lakes Area, look no further than RJ’s Guide Service.

Walleye, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Sunfish, Crappie, and more can be found in these waters, depending on when you go.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. You’re welcome to bring snacks to keep up those energy levels!

You’ll step aboard a 20’ Warrior 2090 with capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. State of the art equipment along with state of the art electronics keep us on fish as often as possible!

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

It’s never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
