Never a Better Fishing Opener

In all of the years we have owned and operated Voyageur Canoe Outfitters I've never seen a better fishing opener. I'm not sure how many fish were caught but the weather was absolutely beautiful.

All weekend long in the BWCA the sun shined brightly and the temperature soared. Yesterday's high temperature reached 77 degrees and reports of sunburned skin were heard.

We did hear about fish being caught on the lakes of the Gunflint Trail over the weekend as well. Plenty of Lake Trout and Northern Pike were caught in the Boundary Waters and on Saganaga with reports of some nice Walleye as well.

While there's never been better weather for the fishing opener we've never not had the Walleye Wranglers here to spend it with. The Walleye Wranglers, long-time guests of the fishing opener, couldn't make it up this year so our fishing reports are quite incomplete.

I'll have to stick with what I know to be true. Without snow flurries and rain thiis year's fishing opener had the best weather ever.
