What visitors say
Tank Industries Guide Service is a muskie-focused guiding outfit based in Kenora, fishing Lake of the Woods and the Winnipeg River. Every review is five stars, and almost all of them centre on the guide himself: knowledgeable about the water, patient, and keen to teach.
Clients describe well-kept boats and top-end rods, reels and lures, with the chance to try different set-ups through the day. The service covers casting and jigging through the summer and trolling late in the fall. Several reviewers stress how hard the guide works to find a bite: even through cold fronts, storms and high wind, groups report landing big fish, including several over 40 inches and one close to 50.
It suits a wide range of anglers. Newcomers say they left with real technique and confidence, one couple booked a two-day trip for an anniversary, and seasoned anglers who have fished with guides across North America rank this among the best. Half-day, six-hour and multi-day trips all appear in the reviews, and the guide's interest in conservation comes up too.
There are no complaints in the reviews. Muskie fishing is never a sure thing, and a couple of newer anglers had follows to the boat without a landing, so go in expecting to learn as much as to catch. The most recent reviews are a few years old, so confirm current availability when booking.
