Host Bret Amundson travels to southern Minnesota to angle for walleyes near Albert Lea then walks the grass for pheasants near Austin. The Crow River Trail Guards of Paynesville connect kids to the outdoors, and homeowners are planting native wildflowers and grasses on shorelines to protect water quality.
Bret is at Fountain Lake in Albert Lea for the Governor’s Fishing Opener. The 521-acre lake is one of the largest in the area, with a maximum depth of only 14 feet. Because southern lakes are warmer longer than northern lakes, walleye fry that are stocked every other year can reach 14 inches in a few years. But the shallow lakes are filled with sediment. To restore Fountain Lake, the Shell Rock River Watershed District has been dredging bays for the past two summers to increase 4 to 5 foot depths to 1...
