 This is an encore presentation of Outside the Box with the Ox. Ah, the Minnesota Fishing Opener. Only a memory now as the first right of summer has passed. Almost a million fishing licenses are expected to be sold here this year. Unless you're under 16 years old or 90 plus and you want to fish, you need a license. The once glorious Governor's Fishing Opener was held on Lake Pepin Friday and Saturday, which is a big media event to promote the sport and the local host community.
