Looking for a guided, “western-style” float trip experience in the upper Midwest? Then consider making the short trek past Minneapolis to
northeast Minnesota for a day or two of fly fishing for hard-fighting smallmouth bass. Blessed with magnificent beauty and abundant wildlife, this
region is home to some of the best bronze back fishing in the country. Among others, the legendary St. Croix River along the Minnesota/Wisconsin
border offers a quality warmwater fly-fishing experience for beginner and advanced anglers alike. Designated as a National Scenic Waterway,
the St. Croix flows easily past dense pine forests and sandstone bluffs where you’ll find plenty of tempting structure to cast your Dahlberg diver or
Clouser minnow. Typically lower water levels in the late spring, summer and fall provide the best fishing, especially when river temperatures begin
to rise and the top-water bite is on. Kip Veith’s Wildwood Float Trips, a licensed guide service, offers an ideal opportunity to take advantage
of this truly unique experience. With a passion for fly fishing built over 25 years, he and his guides are dedicated to making your day on the water
enjoyable, informative and productive. Guided full-day float trips in Wildwood’s safe and comfortable Clackacraft drift boats are $395 (one or
two anglers including lunch and terminal tackle), with multi-day packages and other options available. For more information on this great upper
Midwest fly-fishing destination call Kip at (612) 72-DRIFT, or check out his website at www.wildwoodfloattrips.com by Robert Tomes
