Fishing Minnesota: Angling with the Experts in the Land of 10,000 Lakes

Fishing is more than catching fish. It is travel, nature, adventure, friendships, and discovery. In Fishing Minnesota, Greg Breining tags along with expert anglers and reports what they have spent years learning. He fishes for Lake Superior steelhead with Shawn Perich, small-stream smallmouth bass with Tim Holschlag, stream trout with Jay Bunke, and north-country muskles with Mark Windels. Along the way, Breining comes to understand not only how they catch fish, but why they go to the trouble. Nowhere else will you find a comprehensive how-to guide for fishing Minnesota’s many lakes and streams, full of tips from the region’s best tournament anglers, most experienced fisheries biologists, and never-fail professional guides. Breining shares their secrets on such topics as how to snell a yarn fly, where to find the biggest muskies in any lake, and how to pick the best minnows for Mille Lacs. Breining gives us that coveted experience of being in the boat with the pros.
