At The Fish Guyd Guide Service, we cater your trip to exactly what you are looking for. We have many styles of fishing and different bodies of water to have the best experience possible. Whether you're chasing the next trophy fish or just looking to fill the cooler with fresh eaters, we've got you covered.

We specialize in fun, laid-back fishing trips across the Brainerd Lakes Area, including legendary waters like Gull Lake, Pelican Lake, and Whitefish Lake. Our mission? To put you on fish and give you a great time doing it. Families, first-timers, seasoned anglers – all are welcome.

We don’t just park you somewhere and hope for the best. We move regularly to stay on the fish and tailor every trip to your goals – whether it's Walleyes for dinner, Bass and Pike for action, or that once-in-a-lifetime trophy Musky. With top-notch equipment, local know-how, and a no-pressure vibe, it’s no wonder our clients keep coming back.

✅ Relaxed and professional guide
✅ Great for families, kids, and serious anglers
✅ Catch eaters and trophies
✅ Ice and open water trips available
✅ Local lakes, local knowledge, BIG results

Your fishing machine for the day is a 24' Skeeter SX240 bay boat that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, as well as lures. Live bait is also included.

Before coming aboard buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

It's recommended to bring a hat, sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed.

If you have any questions about fishing with The Fish Guyd Guide Service, feel free to send Capt. Nick a message down below.

Captain Nick was an amazing guide and put us onto fish early, went after different species the whole day, and always had us moving to keep that bite on! Was just an overall amazing experience and definitely would look for him if I get the chance to come back.

He was prompt, very attentive to a rowdy, needy group of women We were his first group of women on an extended trip. Boy was it fun, excitement and lots of fish that he cleaned, ready to eat. Was just great, Nick, we will see you in the fall.

Fantastic experience

Nick was a fantastic guide with plenty of knowledge of where the fish are and how to catch them. We were catching fish from start to finish. Our party was 2 adults and 2 kids. Nick was great with the kids, answering questions and showing them what to do. We got done and the kids kept saying can we come back and go with Captain Nick again. We will book again in the future!
