Host Bret Amundson is on the Minnesota River with guide Darren Troseth, owner of 3 Rivers Fishing Adventures, fishing for channel and flathead catfish near the Twin Cities. In Minnesota it can take 25 years for flatheads to grow to trophy size, and weights of up to 70 pounds have been recorded. We also see Troseth catch a record-setting 78-inch sturgeon ice fishing on the St. Croix River in February 2019. Troseth had to call on friends to help auger a larger hole to get the fish through the ice.
