Fishing Guide Tom Neustrom Gets Results

If you're planning a guided fishing trip in Minnesota, there are some important qualities to look for in your guide service. The best fishing guides truly love the sport, exhibit great patience with beginners, have expert knowledge of the area and its fisheries, and, of course, are unsurpassed when it comes to finding fish. Tom has all of these qualities and is great fun to be on the water with. Even if the fish aren't cooperating, you'll enjoy your day in the boat with him.

Most of Tom's first-time clients come to him to learn how to fish better; or to have him teach them the structure on an unfamiliar lake. If you want to get your kids hooked on the sport of fishing, let them experience the excitement and gain the knowledge that spending a day on the water with a professional guide can give. Tom is also very adept at helping you make a great impression with your biggest client. Schedule a trip with Tom and find out why his customers schedule return trips year after year!

The Best Equipment for your Comfort and Safety

While on the lake with Tom you'll fish comfortably out of his new 2012 20-foot Lund 1975 Pro-V SE with 225hp Mercury Verado motor and dual Minn Kota trolling motors. Tom uses the latest Humminbird Electronics combined with Navionics Platinum marine charts datacards programmed with detailed 3D underwater map views, aerial photos and currents data. For the safety of his clients Tom uses on-board weather radar, marine band radio and a cellular phone. He provides quality Daiwa and Dobyns rods, Daiwa reels, life jackets, all bait and tackle, fuel and some transportation if needed.

Fish northern Minnesota with Tom Neustrom for Northerns and Muskies.Tom's boat will comfortably fish up to 3 anglers. You only need to bring your valid Minnesota fishing license, rain and/or cold weather gear, camera and a cooler with food and beverage (if you won't be having shore lunch or shore supper). Since Tom works hard to give his clients a competitive fishing edge, he respectfully asks that you leave your own GPS units at home.

Guided Fishing Trip Rates

There's nothing like a tasty shore dinner or shore lunch to end your day on the water.  Some fresh fish fillets, fried potatoes and beans go down great with an ice-cold beverage.  Rates for a full day or half day guided fishing trip are reasonable and include bait, fish cleaning and packaging services as well as use of Tom's boat, fuel, fishing equipment and safety gear. Clients need only bring their valid Minnesota fishing license, rain and/or cold weather gear and food & beverage.
