Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, we've got you covered with all the gear and know-how you'll need. Let's break down what makes this trip a must-do for any fishing enthusiast visiting Minnesota's North Shore.

What's the Deal?

Picture this: You're out on one of Duluth's gorgeous lakes, surrounded by pristine wilderness, with a rod in your hand and endless possibilities beneath the surface. Our 4-hour private afternoon trip is designed to give you the best shot at hooking into some of Minnesota's most prized fish. We're talking Northern Pike, Crappie, and the crown jewel of Minnesota fishing - Walleye. Our guides know these waters like the back of their hand, and they're itching to share their secret spots with you. This isn't just fishing; it's a chance to tap into local knowledge and techniques that have been honed over generations.

Gearing Up for Success

We'll be using a mix of techniques depending on what's biting. Might be some trolling for those big Northern Pike, or we could be finessing some jigs for Crappie in the weeds. And if the Walleye are running, you bet we'll be rigged up with live bait and ready to go. Our boats are comfortable and stable, perfect for casting all day without wearing yourself out. Just bring your excitement and maybe a lucky hat - we'll handle the rest.

Top Catches This Season

Alright, let's talk fish. Duluth's waters have been on fire lately, and we're seeing some real beauties come to the net. Northern Pike have been aggressive, striking hard and putting up a fight that'll have you grinning from ear to ear. Crappie fishing has been lights out, with some real slabs being pulled from the brush piles. And the Walleye? Well, let's just say there's a reason they call it the state fish. We've been finding them consistently, and there's nothing quite like the telltale tap-tap of a Walleye taking your bait. Every trip is different, but that's the beauty of it - you never know when you might hook into the fish of a lifetime.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Northern Pike: These bad boys are the bulldogs of freshwater. Known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, Northern Pike can grow to impressive sizes in Duluth's cool waters. They love to hang out near weed beds and drop-offs, ambushing anything that looks like an easy meal. Spring and fall are prime times for trophy Pike, but they're active year-round. Landing a big Pike is a rush - they'll test your gear and your skills, making for an unforgettable battle.

Crappie: Don't let their size fool you; Crappie are a blast to catch and even better to eat. These panfish school up, so when you find them, you can often catch a bunch. They're most active during the spring spawn and again in the fall, but summertime can produce some great action too. We'll target them around submerged timber, weed edges, and over deep basins. Light tackle and a gentle touch are key - feeling that light bite and setting the hook just right is an art form.

Walleye: Ah, the Walleye - Minnesota's pride and joy. These elusive fish are known for their excellent taste and challenging nature. They've got incredible eyesight, which makes them deadly predators in low light conditions. We'll be targeting them during their peak feeding times, usually early morning or late afternoon into evening. Walleye tend to hang out near structure - reefs, points, and drop-offs are all prime territory. There's nothing quite like the feeling of a Walleye hitting your bait, and the fight they put up is something special. Plus, if you're lucky enough to keep a few (within regulations, of course), you're in for one heck of a fish fry.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Look, I've been guiding these waters for years, and I still get excited every time I head out. There's just something about Duluth that keeps anglers coming back for more. Maybe it's the crystal-clear waters, or the chance at hooking into a monster Pike. Could be the peaceful scenery, with eagles soaring overhead and the occasional deer sipping from the shoreline. Or maybe it's just the pure joy of being out on the water, rod in hand, with good company and the promise of tight lines. Whatever it is, this place has a way of getting under your skin. And the best part? Every trip is different. The fish are always changing patterns, keeping us on our toes and making each outing a new adventure.
