OTTER TAIL COUNTY, Minn. (KVRR) Anglers set out on Otter Tail Lake Saturday morning to kick off the Governor’s Fishing Opener.
Gov. Tim Walz kicked off the fishing opener early Saturday morning at Otter Tail Lake. He reportedly caught a perch. Unfortunately, he was unable to attend the official opener ceremony.
“He was called away to the capital amidst the legislative negotiations, but I did want to say on his behalf he was here yesterday. He enjoyed the media row activity. He enjoyed visiting a lot of local businesses,” Minnesota DNR Commissioner, Sarah Strommen said.
