Aiden Johnson/Member Tips and Tricks
Aiden Johnson is an 18-year-old muskie guide who has found his place in the fishing industry guiding in the Twin Cities Metro area. On August 9th, he caught 47- and 39-inch muskies on Lake Vermillion to take first place in the Minnesota High School Tournament. Aiden will speak on his experience as a very young guide in today's society. Aiden mainly guides on Forest, White Bear and Bald Eagle and will present unique tactics targeting pressured metro muskie, and new patterns.
Our November meetings have been a member's mix, with them giving tips from their own experiences. If any of you would like to present your tips, let us know and we will add you to the group.
