(Undated) — Minnesota’s fishing opener is this Saturday, May 15th. The D-N-R says it has over 16-hundred managed access sites ready for anglers.
Officials say warm spring weather has allowed them to have even more of the sites than normal ready to go ahead of the opener.
Sales of fishing licenses are also reportedly up this year, unsurprisingly, after state-imposed restrictions a year ago dampened enthusiasm early in the fishing season.
