Heading in on Clearwater for opener. Planning to head up to Mountain and chase some lakers. Early weather report looks fantastic, can't wait to get up there!

I'm taking my six year old for a couple nights to Kawishiwi. Its his first trip. Planning on more line untangling than fishing but looking forward to it!

No BWCA for opener for me. Long family tradition of hitting Mille Lacs, so that's where I'll be. The bite ought to be crazy again this open water season. The keeping...not so much. Oh well, it should be fun. :)

Ill be in on the 19th, so hopefully there are some early fishing reports in those first 6 days!

Exciting time of year! I hope everyone enjoy's this great MN Tradition! I'll be heading to my lake place in Alexandria, MN for opener. Most likely pan fishing but might try for some walleyes as well. Heading up to Crooked/Friday Bay June 6th, definitely looking forward to another good trip!

I'll be camping on Stoney Point on Leech Lake. Has been a traditional voyage since I was a kid. Looks like sunscreen will be in order, last year you needed a parka and bibs.

i love hearing everyone's plans , whether its in or out of the bwca , and CARMIKE-YNNEB9-BEARBROWN bring up the key word "tradition" lets all do our part and keep the youth involved in fishing with traditions like the Minnesote Fishing Opener ;)

Me and my two daughters will be on Mountain the day before opener! Maybe we'll see you there and you can help us catch fish! We're new at this!

YES Very Pumped up....Headed to ELY on Friday. The 1200 mile trip from AL will be worth it when we enter in on Sunday morning. Good Luck to all and hoping for fun safe adventures.
