Minnesota Fishing Opens With Strong Start Across State
The opener drew praise from anglers statewide with many walleyes and several big northerns. Notable catches included a 12 pound walleye on Stalker Lake and a 24 pound northern at Basswood Lake, while Warroad and Ely reported abundant limits amid windy conditions and early ice breakup aiding the bite. Local guides and groups tallied hundreds of fish across Fergus Falls Detroit Lakes Willmar Ely and Nevis areas.
