Leech Lake Walleye Opener Report, Part 1

I heard from my neighbor Tom Malay that there were about 20 boats camped out near Second Duck Point all afternoon. Tom has not gone out fishing himself, but said he will get an update from the folks at Birch Ridge Resort and will get back to me in the next couple of days.

Tom said the weather was typical for a Leech Lake walleye opener -- overcast with rain on and off all day, the temperature didn't hit 45 degrees and the winds out of the NW were about 10 mph, enough to create a nice "walleye chop" on the lake.

More reports from the 2009 Minnesota walleye opener on Leech Lake will be posted here in the next few days.
