Mother's Day in Minnesota means the Fishing Opener, a tradition that all good Minnesota Moms stopped resenting long ago by embracing the tackle box as fashion accessory or leveraging the hubby's walleye weekend into premium gifts. There's no shortage of fish monuments in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, so why not seek out a freshwater friend for this year's family photo op on Mom's special day? Some of the state's best angling is done at Lake Mille Lacs, and Gary and I hooked this beauty outside of a bank in the hamlet of Isle. Since we were fishing without a license, we threw it back in and moved on before the DNR ever got wise to our shenanigans. Happy Mother's Day!
