About Your Trip

Discover the awe-inspiring natural beauty of the Wisconsin Dells area like never before! While this region is widely celebrated for its thrilling waterparks and bustling shopping spots, the real magic lies along the breathtaking Wisconsin River. Imagine gliding along these pristine waters, surrounded by towering ancient sandstone cliffs that have stood for over 18,000 years, and soaking in the serene sights of Bald Eagles soaring overhead, graceful Cranes wading in the shallows, and the occasional glimpse of a Beaver hard at work. This isn’t just a fishing trip—it’s a journey into one of Wisconsin’s most scenic and captivating ecosystems.

Your adventure focuses on targeting two of the most sought-after freshwater species: Walleyes and Smallmouth Bass. With years of local expertise and a commitment to sustainable angling, your guide is dedicated to delivering an unforgettable day on the water. Smallmouth Bass are exclusively catch-and-release to preserve their trophy potential, and for Walleyes, conservation is encouraged for the larger fish, but you’re welcome to keep a few in the 15-20” range for a delicious dinner. These waters are a treasure trove of opportunity, and your guide’s knowledge will ensure you have the best chance to reel in these prized catches.

The type of fishing you’ll enjoy depends on the season.

Spring is prime Walleye season on the Wisconsin River. Your guide will set you up with a variety of artificial lures and crankbaits to cast for these prized fish. With the river coming alive, this is the perfect time to feel the pull of a hungry Walleye on your line.
Summer brings an action-packed experience as schooling Smallmouth Bass explode on topwater lures, offering some of the most exciting fishing around. Your guide will also help you mix in artificials, live bait, or trolling for Walleyes, while the river's diverse ecosystem means you might encounter other species along the way.
Fall is all about chasing Walleyes again, as these fish become the primary focus. Depending on the conditions, you’ll use a combination of crankbaits, live bait, or artificials to dial in on where these river warriors are hiding. The crisp fall air and stunning foliage make for an unforgettable backdrop to the action.
Your guide will provide all rods, reels, tackle, and bait, ensuring you have everything you need for a successful day on the water. Whether you’re a seasoned angler chasing a personal best or a beginner eager to learn, they’ll tailor the trip to your experience level and goals. Just bring your fishing license, weather-appropriate clothing, and snacks or drinks to stay fueled for your adventure.

This isn’t just fishing; it’s an opportunity to experience the Wisconsin River’s incredible natural beauty and world-class fishing firsthand. Get ready for an unforgettable day of casting, reeling, and soaking up the wonders of the Wisconsin Dells!
