Buck’s Hardware Hank weekly report:
If you’re interested in fishing, grab some bait and head up to Ball Club, Kemo, or the Lakes Twin and perhaps something will bite. I understand some fine barracudas are being taken.
Overall the fishing is still pretty darn good wherever you choose to go; the only thing you have to do is get out there. Also, don’t forget your grouse stuff as that season opens this weekend.
Capt. Jerry Skarupa of Secret Lures says the best fishing of the entire season is right now.
Left: Kiko Marcelino of Minneapolis doesn’t look quite sure what to do with the fish on his stringer. Kiko and his dad Manuel were fishing with Joe Carlson of Joe’s Inland Guide Service when they caught this 25-inch northern and 13-inch walleye. Kiko was excited about the first fish he had ever caught.
There are lots of lake trout and some salmon around in various depths from 80 to 140 feet.
