DISCOVERING | Early Spring Walleyes on the Menominee River


Subscribe:


Episode 31 - It's great to be back on a boat! We hit the Menominee River on the border of the U.P. and Wisconsin as soon as the ice was off, for some early walleye fishing with Brian Clairmont of BAC Guide Service and his buddy Jody Korch. Both regulars of the "Discovering" program over the years.

And some spring housekeeping; put your ice fishing gear away, buy a leftover turkey tag, bear-proof your yard, and enjoy the sounds of spring. Oh, and woodticks are crawling around already too.
