According to MPR coverage, on opening day Govenor Pawlenty "reeled in a 15-inch Northern around 7:30 a.m." Not bad, but how about you?

Maybe you missed a chance to "Watch everyone re-learn how to back up a boat trailer [...]" (- Winston Smith, in our Gather discussion) or maybe you were lucky/skilled, like Nick Parsons of Forest Lake, Minn. He sent in this picture:

Either way, be sure to tell us if you caught your limit or share a photo of your catch!
