MINNESOTA AUGUST BOWFISHING | AUGUST 20 - 22


AUGUST 20 - 22, 2020

FERGUS FALLS, MN

We will be joining our Minnesota coordinator Andrea Charlebois to offer a SECOND bow fishing trip this year! For years, bowfishing was considered an archery enthusiast’s game, or a bowhunter’s offseason fad. But over the last decade or so, this fishing technique has become a beloved sport for thousands of outdoor lovers. Fun and unique, bowfishing requires absolutely no previous angling experience, making it perfect for newbie fishers. If you’re looking to make your first bowfishing steps, you’ve come to the right place.

We will join North Country Bowfishing on the Ottertail river near Dent, MN for 1 night of bow fishing. We will be staying 2 nights at Bell's Resort Bar and Grill. This is a charming resort nestled at the northernmost bay of Star Lake offering both recreation and leisure. The resort is located in the heart of Minnesota's beautiful Lakes Area, just 30 minutes from the towns of Detroit Lakes and Fergus Falls.

Plan to arrive Friday evening for a night of relaxation and fun. On Saturday, plan to relax at the resort, tour the town or even bring a fishing pole for the lake. We will meet our guides on Saturday evening for a night on the river. You can plan to head home on Sunday around noon.

This trip includes 1 night of bowfishing, 2 nights of lodging and a generous tip to our guides. We are able to offer this weekend at a price of $300 per person, which will be a non-refundable deposit of $100 and 1 payment of $200.

You will need to purchase a MN Angling Licene for this trip. The guides will be providing everything needed for a successful bow fishing trip, however travel is not included.
