About Your Trip

Get ready to experience one of the most exciting and action-packed fishing adventures Minnesota has to offer with Captain Matt’s fully guided Bass fishing trips. Whether you’re chasing feisty Largemouths in the shallows or dropping deep for Smallmouths in the clear northern lakes, Matt’s passion for Bass fishing is at the heart of every outing—and it shows in every cast, strike, and fight.

Matt spends most of his time on the water exploring some of
the state’s most iconic fisheries, including Lake Minnetonka, Sugar Lake, Clearwater Lake, Eagle Lake, and the legendary Mille Lacs. From the MN season opener all the way through to the end of the season, he’s out there chasing bass with a variety of tactics designed to match the mood of the fish and the conditions of the lake. Depending on the time of year and the activity of the bite, you might be throwing topwater baits over shallow grass, finessing a drop shot rig over deep weedlines, or working jigs and soft plastics around submerged structure.

This trip is designed for anglers of all skill levels, and Matt will tailor the experience to fit your goals—whether you’re a seasoned bass angler looking to dial in on a new technique or a first-timer hoping to learn the ropes. Matt is always happy to teach and share his knowledge, but he’ll follow your lead if you prefer to just cast and catch.

Everything you need for a successful day is included in the trip: rods, reels, tackle, bait, and any gear needed for the day’s techniques. All you need to bring is your valid Minnesota fishing license, weather-appropriate clothing, snacks, drinks, and a camera to capture the action.

If you’d like to keep your catch, Matt follows Selective Harvest practices and strictly adheres to all Minnesota fishing laws and regulations. Fish cleaning can be provided—just let him know your plans.

Whether you’re looking to hook into chunky Largemouths or acrobatic Smallmouths, Matt’s bass trips offer nonstop fun on the water and an unbeatable chance to learn from a guide who lives and breathes Bass fishing. Book your trip today and see why these sporty fish keep anglers coming back for more, season after season.
