Steady action if you work it.

Before you go

A MN fishing license covers this water. The state agency sets the rules and is the one that counts.

Where these numbers come from

Der See selbst hat keine Messstation. Der Abfluss bei International Falls zeigt die Regulierung, ersetzt aber keinen Seepegel.

No one types these in by hand. If a source goes quiet, the page says so instead of showing you yesterday.
