Governor's Opener Creates Northern Excitement

The Governor's chances of catching a fish look pretty good, during his annual event promoting the sport this weekend. Governor Tim Pawlenty will be on Lake Kabetogama near International Falls.

DNR Wildlife and Fisheries Outreach Chief C. B. Bylander tells KLKS News, the fish patterns are about two to three weeks ahead of schedule, which should be good news for anglers.

About a million anglers are expected to take to the waters this weekend. Bylander tells KLKS News, Minnesota continues to lead the nation in fishing with 28 percent of the population over 16 years of age buying a license.

Bylander says scuffle between the legislature and Governor over budget problems is having no effect on the fishing excitement up north.
