Whether your waiting to try the latest lures, cast a new fishing rod or just listening to the sounds of the water, the fishing opener is the perfect excuse to get out on the water.
For many of my friends, and thousands of Minnesotans, the opener is an event that is never missed. It all comes down to this day. All the tackle preparations, all of the rods, reels, gadgets, electronics, boat maintenance, licensing renewals&care you put into boat winterization comes together for this coming weekend !
Be safe, prosperous&courteous on the water !
Tight lines&good luck
