As the walleye season gets underway, recent and incoming rainfall has prompted local first responders to urge anglers to fish with caution.

According to one local guide, fly fishing is "the most entertaining way to frustrate yourself." One member of the Byron High School Fishing Team learned all about it this week.

Anglers fishing on Upper Red Lake during the 2025 open-water season that starts Saturday, May 10, will have a five-walleye possession limit, with only one walleye over 17 inches allowed.
