I went out today with Devils Lake Guide and Outfitters. The outfitters name was Steve Bourcy (sp?). The guide, Travis, was great and checked on me frequently while fishing and gave several pointers on how to catch fish. He, and another guide, fished nearby to try and find fish to get me onto the schools. I definitely learned a lot from Travis. All of them were very good guys and they worked their a$$es off to try and get me on fish.

I ended up taking home a limit of walleye and two perch. The perch weren't biting too well for me, but oh well. I will take a limit of walleyes any day. They said that it was kind of a slower day, so I would love to be with them on a good day. First class operation and I will be going back to fish with them ASAP. Have a fun trip.

Oh yeah, I forgot something. You are understating that it is a huge body of water. Just finding places to access the lake and get around would have been extremely difficult without someone showing me the ropes.

If you can afford it, I would definitely get a guide. It will be the best money you spend on your trip. Good luck.

I was all by myself so it was $250. Obviously if you have more people you will split that. The ice was around 3 feet. I caught most of my fish on a green-yellow (and small) jigging rapala. Minnow head on the treble and waxies on the singles. I also had some bites on perch-colored buck-shots. You all should definitely get the guide. Good luck.

Thank you for the quick response. That is more than I would have thought. Pout Nuggets and a 30 Block of Budweiser... Can't wait!
