Great question, Here at Ballard's we target walleyes and sauger both in the winter and summer months. If you are ice fishing with us, we provide the transportation to and from the ice house from our cabins on land. The transportation is fully heated along with the ice houses, so no need for huge snow suits! We drill the holes and have jig sticks for you to use out on the ice but if you have any of your own equipment (rod/reel combos, Flasher, Etc) we recommend bringing it along! We do have Vexilars for rent in our office. In the summer on our charter boats the guides have top of the line equipment for you to use so unless you have a rod you never leave behind we have it covered! So rain gear, sunglasses, sunscreen, and beverages are all you theoretically need to bring along! Both seasons we supply all the bait, and clean and process your fish at the end of the day.

Great ice fishing last year. Yes, they bring you out, provide bait, fishing equipment if needed, bring you back. Cleaned our fish too but do keep an eye on that.. received wrong fish but didn't notice that til we got home.

You'll catch both. They have slot limits on the walleye. Over 19 inches and you have to put them back. Can't remember I think if it was over 30 you could keep one trophy size fish. Each person should bring one medium cooler. You can pack your booze for the cabin and boat in that. Then use it to take your fish home. They provide all your gear. They provide all your meals. They will also send out a flyer telling you what to pack. Lots of fun.
