This is a great video that anyone who fishes should watch. Catch n release is the thing to do when you get a big fish. If you snap photos and take a quick measurement you can always get a replica made of your big fish, but let it go back in the water for someone else to enjoy. However, it's important you handle the fish so you don't hurt it. Pete Maina shares the technique here.

A lot of people don't know this, but the St. Louis River right here in Duluth and Superior has some of the best walleye fishing you'll find anywhere.

We are about a month away from the Minnesota Walleye fishing opener. Oh how exciting it is! If you're like me, your boat has been sitting in sub zero temperatures, and it's time to get it back into the water.
