Fishing

South Dakota offers some of the finest Walleye and Smallmouth Bass Fishing available in North America.

Additional catches of white bass, catfish and northern pike are also available!

Dakota Expeditions Fishing Package #1: Fishing the tailwaters of Big Bend Dam and the lower to mid sections of Lake Sharpe. This package includes: Guide, boat, bait, gas, fish cleaning, double occupancy lodging at Dakota Expeditions Lodges and sales tax. The cost for this package is $175.00 per person per day. This area will produce good walleye fishing from February thru September. The smallmouth bass bite is usually the best from May through September. Channel cats and white bass are also caught during these dates. Lake Sharpe is producing some excellent smallmouth bass in both numbers and size.

Dakota Expeditions Fishing Package #2: Fishing Lake Oahe for Walleye. This package includes guide, boat, bait, fish cleaning and sales tax. Cost is $140.00 per person per day. We will be fishing out of the Pierre, SD are and lodging can be found at a number of hotels in the Pierre area (list of motels/hotels including phone numbers will be furnished upon request). Keep in mind that September is an excellent month to combine a couple days of fishing along with a couple days of bird hunting. At the present (01/09/03), we are taking some very nice walleyes in the Big Bend tailwaters from boats when weather permits. A three day or annual non-resident fishing license may be purchased over the counter. I suggest two people, with a maximum of three people to a boat for the guests comfort. A sack lunch and refreshments in the boat can be provided for a charge of $10.00 per person.

NOTE: A minimum of two (2) people required, or, for those who wish to have the boat all to him/her self, minimum fees of $350.00 per day applies for Package #1 and a minimum of $280.00 per day applies for Package #2.
