Devils Lake Fishing Guides & Lodging

Perch Eyes Guide Service operates out of Minnewaukan, North Dakota—two blocks from Devils Lake—with guided fishing trips on two of the region's most productive fisheries: Devils Lake (145,000 acres, 450 miles of shoreline) and Lake Sakakawea on the Missouri River.

Jason Feldner, the lead guide, has been guiding professionally for 25 years. His approach is straightforward: "I get more enjoyment from putting people on fish and the look on their faces when they're pulling in their catch."
