  Rods, Reels, Lures, Bait
  Vexlar (1 per fisherman)
  Transportation to and from the location

Crappie, Walleye, Catfish, and more can be found in these waters, depending on conditions.

Fish within regulations are yours to take home. That's dinner, right there! Patrick can take groups as large as 15 on this guided experience. Dress for current weather conditions, and when in doubt dress warmer.

Don't hesitate to send Patrick a message below with any questions you have, including where to meet on the day of your trip.

Be sure to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group 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).

This is a kid-friendly experience, so feel free to bring the whole family along and pack any extras they need.

Fantastic Outing with Unlimited Guide Service

VERIFIED

5 Hour Trip – Chain Of Lakes (AM) on February 23, 2025

Our experience with Unlimited Guide Service was great and we all had a blast on during our ice fishing outing. We had to cancel twice earlier due to the weather issues (to warm and then to cold) and Anthony with Unlimited Guide Service was easy to work with and very honest and flexible with scheduling. Our party included three adults and three 11 year old boys; and this was everyone's first time ice fishing. Anthony, Tyler, Patrick and Lilly were patient, fun and extremely knowledgeable. We arrived at 6am and were whisked away to the ice fishing huts on ATVs (which the boys really loved). Patrick worked with the boys on getting them set up and comfortable with the equipment. Anthony and Tyler worked with us to get us trained on how to ice fish with their gear. Everything from the huts to the fishing equipment was top-notch (they use sonar fish finders, etc.) and the team at Unlimited Guide Service went out of their way to make sure our excursion was memorable; which it was. To top it off, they cooked us a delicious breakfast when it all wrapped up. I'd highly recommend using Unlimited Guide Service for ice fishing and I plan on reaching out for walleye fishing in the summer.

5 Hour Trip – Chain Of Lakes (AM) on January 19, 2025

We were interested in ice fishing, but didn’t really know where to start. So, we decided to go with a guide service. The guys at Unlimited were great. Very communicative from the minute we booked the trip. They also provided everything we needed to make it a fun and worry-free experience. These guys know their stuff. They explained everything really well and we left with a bunch of crappie! We were also glad to be in a heated shanty on what happened to be one of the coldest days this winter. I highly recommend booking with Unlimited. We’re even thinking of booking one of their summer trips in the future.

I took my adult son for our first ice fishing trip. Everything went well, the staff was good and we had plenty of chances on fish.

I began fishing at a young age with my dad and uncles in farm ponds. With my background in education, I felt it was another way I could help people share in an activity that I enjoy. Casting is my Bread-and-Butter and a go-to tactic on the water. Outside of fishing, I work as a physical education teacher and coach. I also work part-time as a fireman. My friends and family have all been very supportive of my fishing career. I never would have gotten as far as I have without them. Not just in the fishing world, but in every aspect of my life.
