Zach Dagel considers himself very fortunate to have been born and raised in Northern Minnesota. His love for the outdoors was prominent at an early age. When he was fifteen, he started guiding services on Sugar Lake, South of Grand Rapids. He continued guiding until he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps.

After doing four years of honorable service around the world, which included survival training, Zach returned to Northern Minnesota to continue his passion for fishing and hunting in the great outdoors. Fishing opener is May 12, 2013. Zach is familiar with the many lakes in the area and would love to offer his fishing knowledge to YOU!

WHY HIRE A GUIDE?
Let me tell you the advantages of doing so.

The number one reason for hiring a guide is obvious, you want to catch fish. You may be visiting the area for a day or for a week or two. Either way you want to make the most out of your visit. Hiring a guide is a great way to put the odds in your favor.

Not only are most of the Lakes very large but also the amount of fish holding structure can be over whelming. Fish location is very dependent on time of year, and can change from day to day. Even though fish were active in a spot one-day does not mean they will be there the next. You need options, spot options. My Lake experience will provide that for you.

Very seldom do hot spots continue to be hot year after year. Your success depends on your knowledge of location and technique at the present time. I fish 7 days a week and am in tune to what is going on. I live in the area and guide for a living so I know where the fish are.
