Hawg Hunterz Guide Service 

First, we caught 3.5 lbs of cleaned fish to bring home - yum! Three walleye, nine crappie, a monster rockbass and countless slabs of bluegill. Oh - and a 33.25” Northern. My teen sons and I had a blast - Dustin was super easy going and great to chat with; the banter and dad jokes are endless. Temps were forecasted into a 100+ heat index - so Dustin recommended we start an hour earlier. He immediately dropped us on a big school of walleye and panfish, clearly knowing the area well. All of his gear was in great condition and fully prepped for a long day. He efficiently managed the boat and the anglers, giving great guidance and tips to pick up the catch pace. The live sonar was an awesome feature, helping us really understand what was going on under the water. We learned a ton, left with a bunch of fish and memories, and met a really cool local guide who helped shape some indelible memories! Couldnt recommend him enough!

ive booked many trips with Dustin over the years both open water and hard water fishing. Ive got to say I know he is the best guide in the Brainerd lakes area. He has top of the line equipment all the way from boat down to the hooks he uses for his trips. Also Dustin is very knowledgeable about fish patterns and how fish act during weather conditions. Dustin will do everything he can do to get you on good quality fish but its still up the fish to bite lol Dustin will teach you different techniques how to land fish successfully. Once you hook on to a fish of any size he will walk you through step by step(especially bigger fish) to successfully land it followed up with smiles and fist bumbs. Dustin gets just as excited for his clients to catch fish as you would. If you have younger children Dustin is awesome with them also. Lots of patience and will help 100% for children to be successful too. So recently I asked Dustin to help me with beating my old person best walleye of 24 inches. And let's just say with his help and knowledge we smashed that PB with a big beautiful 28 inch walleye so thanks again Dustin Over all if you are looking to get out fishing and have fun adventure on the water i highly highly recommend Dustin. Hawg Hunterz is the guide service I use and I will be using him for many more fun and exciting trips again. 5 stars is not enough for Dustin.

Dustin Monson is a fantastic guide and even a better human being! I spent two days with Dustin and my elderly father fishing for Northern Pike, Walleye, and Pan Fish. Dustin was patient and very helpful with my father, even put him on a Muskie and I know I will never hear the end of it! Dustin has fantastic equipment and was proficient in finding fish and keeping us on them. I highly recommend Dustin and hope to see him again on the water soon! Thank you, Dustin.

Dustin put us on fish on a hot bluebird day on Mille Lacs! Great boat setup along with fantastic guide knowledge! We will be back!

Unforgettable Father/Son fishing trip! Our captain/guide was excellent. Limited out and what made it special was his understanding of the lake, his customers, and technology of the boat was exceptional
