Chasing Giants 

Come chase giants on one of the greatest freshwater fisheries in the world!

With 30+ years of experience fishing Manitoba’s legendary Red River, Captain Scotty J brings a lifetime of fishing experience to every trip. He’s travelled the world chasing countless species and has guided in Northern Manitoba through some of the toughest and most extreme conditions imaginable. But the Red River has always been home.

Based out of East Selkirk, Manitoba, Chasing Giants specializes in putting guests on the incredible fish that call the Red home. Depending on the season, you could be battling giant Channel Catfish, Walleye and more.

Every trip takes place aboard a fully equipped 19’ Alumacraft Trophy 185. You’ll have quality rods, reels, tackle, and all the fishing equipment you need, whether you’re an experienced angler or holding a rod for the first time. Manitoba fishing licenses are required for every guest prior to departure.

Depending on the species and time of year, we may be bottom fishing, jigging, trolling, or using specialized techniques developed from decades of experience on these waters.

Families and kids are always welcome aboard. As a dad of three boys of my own, teaching kids, keeping them engaged, and helping them build confidence on the water is nothing new to me. I love watching young anglers learn and there’s nothing better than seeing a kid hook into a giant Red River catfish for the first time!

Whether you’re an experienced angler chasing a trophy, visiting Manitoba and looking for a bucket-list fishing experience, or simply wanting an unforgettable day on the water with your family, the goal is simple:

Catch big fish. Have some laughs. Make some memories.

Come experience the legendary Red River in Selkirk, MB and see why anglers travel from around the world to fish these waters.

Gratuities appreciated.
