On the ice

Catch more fish this winter with Baxstar. With ice house rentals, Ice Castle sleeper rentals, guided fishing trips, ice fishing equipment rentals, and ice house transportation and set up services, Baxstar has you covered! The hardwater season affords us the opportunity to guide even larger groups on the ice. Baxstar can accommodate groups up to 20 so bring your friends and family!  No-Contact consultations and GPS pin sharing also available via phone or Zoom.  Services start at $125.  Contact Baxstar today to plan your next trip on the ice!

Increase your chances of catching fish with the help of a guide!  Tailored to people that want the assistance of an experienced guide who knows area waters, these trips are great for 1 person, small groups or large groups.  Most multi-species trips take place on Detroit Lake*, and you may fish out of a permanent house, portable house, or both over the course of your trip (you may have an opportunity to move from house to house in order to catch the most fish).

Fish House Transportation

You have enough to deal with. Let Baxstar take one thing off your plate and transport your Ice Castle to any lake in the Detroit Lakes Area. Most clients choose this option when renting an Ice Castle from Baxstar's partner, but Baxstar will transport your personal fish house from as far away as the Fargo-Moorhead area, too.  Already have your house in the Detroit Lakes area? Baxstar will move your house to a hot fishing spot in the area (this may result in moving your house to a different lake, depending on a variety of factors. Contact Baxstar to discuss your option).
