Fishing Locations
Devil’s Lake and Stump Lake are two of North Dakota’s largest natural lakes. Currently spans over 200,000 acres and more than 90% undeveloped. Fishing is outstanding year-round for a number of species which include walleye, perch, northern pike and white bass. The lake is very fertile and has the “groceries” to grow big fish in short order, making it a premier fishery in the United States. As your premiere Devils Lake fishing guide, we’ll stay on the bite.
Our guide services extend to the Glacial Lakes of South Dakota, and for good reason! The high water over the past two decades has blessed this region with fertile fisheries and outstanding fishing. Book your spring, summer, or ice fishing trip now!
Just a short drive from Valley City, ND we find a variety species and great fisheries in western MN. We truly enjoy the variety of species like largemouth bass, plate sized crappies, big bluegills, and still find some elusive walleyes. Its what makes this area fishing famous!
Lake Sakakawea is the largest reservoir on the Missouri River system spanning 180 miles and over 1,500 miles of shoreline! Fin-Hunters offers multi-day trips (2 day minimum) to Lake Sakakawea, Lake Audubon, and the Missouri River because of the distance from home base. The entire system has been blessed with abundant water and mountain run-off in recent years and the fish abundance and average size is really impressive!
FAQs
That depends:
- What species do you prefer?
- What style of fishing do you like? Vertical jigging, casting, slip-bobbers, trolling spinners and bait, trolling crankbaits. Most common answer – Whatever they are biting!
- What dates work best for you? Certain times of year are conducive to certain techniques, but that’s not always the rule. We will find a time that fits your schedule and techniques you prefer.
Fin-Hunters Guide Service is full service, but you’ll need to bring – current fishing license, proper clothing (warm or cold), rain gear, camera, sunglasses, lunch/beverages, cooler to transport your catch, and sunblock. I’ll provide the rest. The rest is up to your guide.
