Jasper Creek Guide Service, Inc. offers an array of high quality canoe trips and fishing excursions. We take great pride in our completely outfitted and guided canoe trips, they're the 'Classic' Northwoods fishing trip!
Jasper Creek also offers completely outfitted, self guided excursions into the surrounding wilderness areas from our in-town base, A Stay Inn Ely. This is Jasper Creek'sbeautifully rustic and handhewn lodge, and it is the starting point for these superb paddling and angling adventures. The Inn is located in downtown Ely, Minnesota, and it provides our guests with deluxe overnight accomodations.
"Our trip may take us deep into the backwoods and secluded waterways of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, or perhaps we'll find ourselves exploring the crystal clear waterways of the Knife Lake Drainage located on the Minnesota / Canadian border. We may opt to portage into world renowned Basswood Lake to set a comfortable mid summer base camp, or our plan may be to paddle its vast expanse westward to the scenic and historic Basswood River. There we'll head downstream into the smallmouth bass haven coined, "Crooked Lake". Jasper Creek trips have been known to paddle and portage onward past beautiful Curtain Falls and into the dark waters of Iron Lake and even beyond into the sprawling waters and excellent fishing of Lac la Croix. We've taken parties deep into Canada's Quetico Park, to seldom visited waters.
And when the time comes for us to test our angling abilities; we'll cast the shaded, boulder strewn and timbered shorelines, the jagged rip- rap points and over the 'hidden' open water reefs. Jasper Creek guides will take you to where the trophy smallmouth bass lay in wait and where the walleyes school. We'll cast where the voracious northern pike lurk, and we'll hunt for the colorful lake trout that are found cruising the depths. Wherever we decide to dip our paddles or portage our gear and set our camp; Jasper Creek guides will safely take you to the very best in fishing spots, to the grandest of scenic views, and to the most comfortable campsites found throughout the BWCA and Quetico Park."
So make that trip 'to the end of the road'- Ely, Minnesota and the famed Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) and Ontario's Quetico Provincial Park. You are sure to enjoy!
