It has been more than 30 years and well over a thousand plus days of guiding since Don Beans first dipped his paddle into the pristine wilderness waterways. He has entertained hundreds of happy clients with stories of his three decades of living in the Northwoods, all the while sharing his  knowledge of how to catch fish. Jasper Company's completely outfitted Classic Guided Day Fishing Trip with Don's delicious Northwoods Shorelunch has set the standard in guided day trips throughout the BWCA and Quetico Park.

The Classic Guided Day Trip includes exceptional guide service and fishing instruction, towboat service or vehicle shuttle to and from a select wilderness entry point, canoes, paddles, seat cushions, and personal floatation devices and a traditional Northwoods Shorelunch served with million dollar views of the Northwoods. 

There are over three dozen easily accessible bodies of water to choose from plus dozens more remote waterways for the those looking for more challenging day trips. Early spring trips offer superb angling opportunities for not only lake trout, but for smallmouth bass, walleyes and northern pike. A late season trip offered during the peak color is prime time for colorful fall fishing or for a Fin & Feather Day Trip, combining fantastic autumn fishing with sporty wing shooting for ruffed grouse.
