ST. PAUL -- Next year's Minnesota fishing opener is coming to Mankato.Governor Tim Walz announced the 75th Annual Minnesota Governor's Fishing Opener will move to Mankato on May 12th and 13th. I am incredibly excited to bring the longtime tradition of the Governor's Fishing Opener to Southern Minnesota and my hometown of Mankato. This region is home to an extraordinary diversity of fishing opportunities on over 100 lakes and rivers. I look forward to celebrating the unique tourism and outdoor opportunities that the region has to offer.
