A Minnesota fisherman reports success using live frogs to catch larger largemouth bass after weekends spent chasing lunker bass, noting local anglers confirm frogs are effective for big catches and promising further trials.
A narrator recalls past bass catches with Stan Nelson of Litchfield Minnesota. They prepared live frogs for the opening and planned a two-boat trip with Stan’s brother-in-law Doug Bannister and Stan’s father-in-law. They departed at 4 a.m. for the lakes north of Litchfield.
The report follows Stan and Doug as they fish weedy shorelines for largemouth bass in Minnesota. Ray hooks several bass on frog lures, with a six fish limit on the first trip, and Stan films for a TV show. They release bass, then plan to return around Labor Day as bass fishing heats up before winter.
Emmetsburg E'Hawks improved to three wins four losses with a 3 1 victory over Pocahontas on the Cylinder diamond. Gene Stowell earned the win with nine strikeouts, while Mike Kliegl homered in the third as Emmetsburg surged in the sixth to take the lead and hold on.
Emmetsburg trailed by three but scored in the sixth and two in the seventh to nearly upset the Tigers. Dale Wright, Rick Knudson, Mike Brennan, and Mike Klieg contributed run-scoring plays while Olson doubled to clear the bases. Storm Lake held the E Hawks to two runs in a nine to two loss prior. The next schedule lists games at Spencer, Sheldon, Garrigan, and Storm Lake with times noted.
Beginning this Sunday at 2 p.m. the gun club will hold open trap shooting every Sunday afternoon. Don Bruch shot 23 points to top the field Tuesday night as Tri County McKinney's and neighboring teams competed in Fenton and nearby shops. Further notice will follow.
