Walleye? Probably Not

Those who hope for a walleye on the line may need more hope than usual for this year's fishing opener. Department of Natural Resources Area Fisheries Manager Tim Brastrup said the wiley walleye may not cooperate all that much. The Governor's Fishing Opener festivities start Friday afternoon with the Community Picnic in Trailside Park. Brastrup suggested you tone down the sting of an opener without walleyes, make do with northerns or crappies, and enjoy the event.
