2008 Governor's Fishing Opener in Breezy Point

• Fishing opener events

Tune into KLKS fm 104.3 May 9th through the 11th for live reports from this classic event. 

It's a great time to have the Opener in the Pequot Lakes - Breezy Point area. This event is about fishing, but, it is also a celebration of our hosting communities and the kick-off to the summer tourism season. What better place to host this 60th anniversary, than in the great Brainerd Lakes area so well-known for its hospitality and variety of fun activities for any visitor to the area.

-- John Edman, director of Explore Minnesota Tourism
