When it comes to bass, the South has nothing on us


In Minnesota, we can hold our own in the bass arena. When it comes to fishing for smallmouths, we are a destination. On lakes such as Mille Lacs, the boundary waters area, angling for smallies is of world-class quality.....more>>

  • Bass Connection: Getting into bed with spawning bass

    The Minnesota bass fishing opener (the real opener in my book) is a unique opener in that the purpose of the delayed start is to allow the bass to go through the spawn somewhat protected.
  • Minnesota Fishing Report: Updated May 17

    MANKATO/WATERVILLE AREA
    Walleyes are hitting leeches in the narrows of Lake Sakatah in seven feet. German Lake, Lake Washington, and Buckmasters Point on Madison Lake are giving up walleyes via minnows and leeches in 10 to 14 feet. Work the lagoon on Lake Tetonka for panfish and Jefferson Lake continues to produce bullheads.
  •  Taking aim at toms on fishing opener

    It is said that on the opening day of the Minnesota fishing season, a million anglers wet a line. This year, let’s make it 999,999.
  •  Low temps slow up fishing opener

    ... The temperature on German Lake was in the mid-50s compared to a normal opening day temperature in the mid-60s.
    It was a similar story on most area lakes and local tackle and bait dealers blamed the mediocre bite on the extended cool conditions that have kept water temperatures lower than normal.
  • Le Center anglers take top honors at tourney

    Gary Bednar and Eric Collins, both of Le Center, took top honors in the 22nd annual Take-A-Kid Fishing Crappie Tournament, Friday on Lake Washington.
  • Plenty of fishing hot spots in our area waters

    The ambiance of a south-central Minnesota fishing trip, where the bellow of a Holstein is more common than the wail of a loon, may not rival that of a trip to northern Minnesota waters.
  •  Water will be chilly for fishing opener

    For the last 10 years or so, Stu McKee has kept a record of the average ice-out date on Lake Washington.
  •  Tragic incident could have easily been avoided
    There is a temptation to characterize the incident as a terrible accident. And while allowing that no parent would intentionally shoot a child, to term it as accidental would be an attempt to soften the edges on such an egregious hunting transgression.
  •  Turkey hunting perfect excuse to enjoy spring

    Usually by the last half of April, a foray into the Nebraska turkey woods is accompanied by the heady fragrance of plum blossoms; alas, such pleasantries this year are still a week away.
