Some of the lakes we like to target are Clear Lake, Storm Lake, Spirit Lake, East and West Okoboji Iowa just to name a few.

With that said we are a mobile guide service that can put you on a bite most any-time. Our passion, experience, skills, and great personality's will make every trip an enjoyable one. We encourage families to come out and share the great experience of fishing with us.

Thank You everybody for the Slogan Entry's this is going to be hard to pick one winner.

Looking forward to selecting the winner of the Slogan contest.  I will also be launching my new logo/slogan soon. Fishing over the last two days has been difficult but still ok. The high winds have made the fishing hard. Yesterday we caught 3 nice keeper Walleyes along with 20 plus shorts.  Next week when the weather warms up the fishing is going to do the same. I'm going to continue to do 3-4 hour evening trips during the week on Clear Lake for $125 That's for 2 people.  This is a great opportunity to go out for a few hours and bring home a limit of Walleyes.  

The Okoboji opener is going to be next weekend call Kabeles bait shop for details on the prize fish and how to enter.

Walleye opener was great. The weather was kinds crazy but the Walleyes didn't seem to mind.  We caught all of our fish on bottom bouncers with leeches or chubs.  The night bite has been great over at the IGL's and it will continue for many weeks.  The water is real clear so that is the reason for them to move in only at night or real cloudy days. Clear Lake had a tournament last weekend and they did very well. The winning team weight was 5 fish for over 10 lbs.  The Walleye Classic is the next big tournament on the lake. The date is May 19th and 20th. and weigh in is at 3pm each day.  Stop in and say hello.  I have been out looking for the Crappies on Clear Lake and it seems that they are just of the spawning areas.  I look forward to them moving in very soon.

Spirit Lake has been great all season so far and the Walleyes are looking real good in size.  People have been catching many Small Mouth along with Pike.  I look forward to this bite over the next few months.  Clear Lake has also been kicking out some nice Walleyes. We have the Walleye Classic this weekend so I hope we can find a good school of big fish.  If your in Clear Lake over the weekend stop in at the weight in and say hello.  

5/19/2012

Day one of the Walleye Classic is over.  After spending all day in the hot sun we ended in 14th with 6.82lbs. If we can reproduce that weight tomorrow we should be sitting pretty good.  I'm trying to get a few photos and I will post them on Face Book soon.  The leading weight of the tournament is over just 10 lbs.
