Trip Summary

We're only about 2 weeks away from open water crappie fishing, here in the Twin Cities area. Dates are starting to fill up and won't last once everyone sees the lakes opening up! The crappie pre-spawn and spawn time is some of the funnest fishing of the season, loaded with fast action and lots of hooksets! Don't wait to book, get on the calendar!

If you’re serious about catching a true Minnesota giant, this is your trip. I specialize in trophy muskie fishing on Minnesota metro lakes, targeting fish that most anglers only see in magazines. My trips are built around precision casting, figure-8...

I don't know how the walleye bite can get any better! A couple of young hammers fished with me the other day and it was an absolute smash fest. Power fishing with Rapala Rippin' Raps put over 50 walleyes in the boat! Do NOT miss out on this bite, I expect it to last for several more weeks, but there's only so many dates available. MESSAGE FOR DETAILS ON A WALLEYE TRIP.
