Mille Lacs Fishing Guide: Jeff Hanson

A little about myself:
I
got my start fishing at an early age with my dad and grandpa. I have been doing over 100 guide trips per year for 10 years on Mille Lacs Lake,
getting my start in ‘97 under the mentorship of Terry McQuoid. My favorite methods and fish change throughout the
season. Early in the year I love nothing more than rigging up on the
sand for walleyes. By Memorial day, I want to be rigging out on the
mud. Then around mid-June I’ll start pulling some spinners or
bobber-fishing deep rocks and gravel on windier days and rigging the
mud when it’s calmer. By mid-July, I’m spending more time bobbering on
breezy days. By this time of year I’ll also begin Smallmouth bass
fishing on the reefs. August is my favorite month for bobber fishing
for walleyes and by the end of August I’m spending a lot of time Muskie
fishing and then more and more throughout the fall. There are only a handful of Mille Lacs guides (most of whom I work with) w/ as much experience and knowledge as myself. I will ensure that we have a fun, relaxing, successful day on the water, no matter what species you're after, the time of year or the weather...My extensive experience and knowledge on this lake is second to none. Give me a call to discuss what species your after and the best time of year to go after them.
