Hey Sportsfans!  Whammy! The Great Minnesota Get together…affectionately known as “the opener” has come and gone and we were in full swing on Friday night with a group of passionate fishermen ready to test the waters.

A full fleet of guide boats departed Saturday morning and scattered about the river.

3/8 to 3/4 oz. jigs have been the weight of choice of the guides… and of course, gold seems to be the color they all grabbed for.  The water temperature is sitting around 48 degrees.

The weather is turning around and we are expecting a great week ahead…

Lodging & Fishing packages still available…Now’s the time to come up and…

SET THE HOOK!!
