We love chasing catfish, carp, and all the other roughfish found in our big rivers! Between the Mississippi River and its tributaries within 1 hour of MSP, there is a lot of superb roughfish territory around us. Our main species we target are channel catfish, carp, sturgeon, and suckers. We often catch smallmouth bass, walleye, and northern pike too! Our trips are land-based, setting up camp and poles on a sand bar or the riverbank. We can light a campfire, eat some food, learn about river ecology, and wait for the big ones to bite! All fishing equipment and bait is provided, this trip is a great summer family activity. Just bring a lawn chair! We will teach you everything from finding good fishing spots, to rigging your poles, to fighting in the big ones! Prices for up to 4 people- 2.5hr $250, 4hr $350, 6hrs $450.
