Minnesota FishingJeff Skelly of Fins to Feather Guide Service will tell you that he has been blessed to have been born and raised in Northern Minnesota. His love of fishing and hunting stems from his parents’ love of the outdoors.

From a very young age Jeff has pursued sport fishing and hunting and feels fortunate to have been able to turn his passion for the outdoors into a full-time career.

Jeff is a multi-species angler who specializes in walleye fishing but loves to fish muskie, bass, northern pike and panfish as well. He’s on the water every day from May through September which gives him an in-depth knowledge of area lakes as well as the experience Great Fishing in Northern Minnesotato get his clients “on the fish.”

While Jeff enjoys providing a fun fishing experience for people – his biggest enjoyment comes from helping people become better anglers. He generously shares his expertise on successful techniques, bait presentation, fish behaviors and areas to fish so that you will be a more productive fisherman after his day with you has ended.

Jeff enjoys guiding individuals as well as groups of anglers. He feels that the biggest reason for his success as a professional Kids love to fish out Northern Minnesota Lakesfishing guide is his affiliation with the outstanding guides that make up Minnesota Fishing Pros.

Client Testimonials:

Cubby,
Thank you for the excellent fishing trip last week. Not only did we catch our limit with you, but we learned several new techniques that we used to improve our fishing the rest of the week. Having access to a professional guide like you that put us on the fish and teaches us the secrets of the lakes up there is exactly what we've been missing in past years' trips. We're already thinking about our return trip next year.  You'll be getting a call!

Thanks,
John Taylor
