Minnesota Fishing
Get Hooked
Minnesota offers some of the country's best freshwater fishing, including a wide range of colossal lakes, scenic streams, and the mighty Mississippi. Roaming these waters are walleye, bass, trout, panfish, northern pike, muskies and more — in every shape and size imaginable.
Your heart will skip a beat when a denizen of the deep strikes your lure. Hang on. Half the fun is reeling 'em in, but the other half is telling the stories of fearsome trophies in the fall, whoppers in the winter, or the one that got away.
