Minnesota Fishing Challenge Host Al Lindner knows catching fish during a tournament is important. He also knows that those who participate in the annual Minnesota Fishing Challenge are fishing because they are saving lives. "This is a fun event because contestants catch fish on Gull Lake at the best time while raising funds for people who are facing alcohol and drug addictions," Lindner said, "I strongly believe we can make a difference by raising funds for Mn Adult & Teen Challenge. I know it positively impacts boys, girls, men, women, and their families."

The Minnesota Fishing Challenge will take place on Gull Lake in Brainerd, MN on Saturday, June 4.  Teams fish for the species they love (or whatever bites). Divisions are bass, walleye, pike, panfish, and the mixed bag division. Team may only enter fish in one division; declared at weigh-in. All ages welcome! All skill levels welcome!
