Winter Kill Affecting MN Lakes

May 12, 2023 News -- KRJB-KRJM-KKCQ 0

It’s the opening weekend of fishing season in Minnesota.  At DNR Fisheries, they’re concerned not only about the live ones we hope to catch, but fish that also died in the winter kill.  Nathan Olson with DNR Fisheries in Detroit Lakes says he hasn’t seen a winter kill like this before.

What causes winter kill?

Olson was speaking with R&J Broadcasting’s Kevin Kochman on KRJB’s Kaleidoscope program, which airs Monday through Friday at 9am.
