    There’s a lot unknown about this fish in Minnesota.
    It might be the most miss understood fish we have.

    Our DNR has carved out some time and money to try to understand them.
    Here you go… 14 minutes of info.

    Thanks Brian, I caught a leopard colored one in Winni 2 years ago, It was a gorgeous looking fish. I have also caught them on red and low, but they didn’t have near the coloration

    This is one of several we caught a few weeks ago. It was the first time we targeted them and we had a blast. They’re strong and great fighters.
