We plan on making sure Lake Minnetonka’s walleye population is strong for years to come.
Thank all of you for your efforts with this great cause. I will be attending April event and will recruit as many as possible to join me.
BIG NEEDED REQUEST!
When you have this years carp shoot, participants MUST collect and dispose of their fish. I live on Black Lake and for weeks this spring it was a mess of stinking carp with holes in them. On boating other bays I found the same thing.
Please help,
John
