Calendar of Events for Walker, MN
It's hard for me to cite one specific reason why I love the summers at Leech Lake so much. One obvious reason is I thoroughly enjoy getting in the boat and fishing the many shoreline weedbeds for largemouth bass, or drifting along one of the 12-foot breaks in Sucker Bay for walleye and jumbo perch.
I also enjoy walking in the woods that surround most of the lake -- although in the summer my walks are much shorter in length than in spring, fall and winter because I can't stand being bitten by the millions of mosquitoes that also seem to enjoy the woods at this time of year. Then there's watching the magnificent sunsets while sitting on the end of the dock. Or watching the lightening dance off the lake during a late-night thunderstorm. It's all good.
I also enjoy my occasional trip into the little community of Walker located on the south end of the lake. And I can't go to Walker without a stop at Reed's Sporting Goods to check up on the latest and greatest in fishing equipment. In fact, I would be hard pressed to remember a single time I've been to Walker and didn't stop at Reed's.
Throughout the summer, there's lots to do in Walker. Here's a calendar of events: http://www.leechlake.org/events.asp
