| Winter trout fishing to open for first time on 24 lakesAnglers for the first time will be able to fish for trout in the winter on two dozen north-central Minnesota lakes, many of them within the Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area. Trout fishing on these lakes, which contain stream trout, will be open from Saturday, Jan. 17, through Tuesday, March 31. Stream trout are rainbow, brook and brown trout, and a hybrid of lake trout and brook trout called splake. “These changes give anglers more opportunities to catch trout in the winter months,” said Al Stevens, fisheries program consultant with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. "We thought this would be a benefit to anglers with little risk of harming summer trout fishing.” Full Story Results from the Mount Ski Gull meet at Spirit Mountain in DuluthDULUTH, Jan 11, 2015 – A record turnout of youth skiers competed in the Northland Junior Race Series meet at Spirit Mountain in Duluth Sunday.
