About Your Trip

Discover one of the most exciting ways to experience Minnesota's outdoors on a guided nighttime bowfishing adventure with Jason. After sunset, the water comes alive as powerful lights illuminate the shallows, revealing fish cruising just beneath the surface. Combining the precision of archery with the excitement of fishing, bowfishing offers a fast-paced, interactive experience that's just as enjoyable for first-time shooters as it is for seasoned outdoorsmen.

Each trip is customized around current conditions, with Jason choosing from productive local lakes within about 30 minutes of Le Center or stretches of the Mississippi River where fish activity is at its best. Rather than fishing the same location every trip, he selects the water that offers the greatest opportunity based on weather, water clarity, seasonal movements, and recent conditions, giving your group the best chance for an action-filled evening.

Whether you've never picked up a bow before or you're looking to sharpen your skills, Jason provides patient instruction throughout the night. He'll explain the equipment, demonstrate proper shooting techniques, and coach you through every opportunity, creating a safe, welcoming environment where everyone can enjoy the experience and improve with every shot.

No equipment is required to participate. All bows, arrows, reels, and specialized bowfishing gear are provided, so you can simply show up ready for a fun night on the water. The trip accommodates up to four guests, making it a great choice for families, friends, or anyone looking for a unique outdoor adventure together.

Before your trip, each guest will need to purchase a valid Minnesota fishing license. Dress for the weather, bring any personal snacks or drinks you'd like, and get ready for an unforgettable evening chasing fish beneath the lights. If you have any questions before your trip, Jason is always happy to help make sure you're prepared for a great night outdoors.

I have been fishing ever since I was little, doesn't matter whether it is during the summer or ice fishing in the middle of winter. It is something I have always enjoyed and am happy to pass that on to my children. Bowfishing is something that is a passion of mine though and love to share that with everyone. I will always do my best to get you on the fish and make sure that...
