Northland Outdoors Forum Communications Co.

The Minnesota Fishing Challenge has become the largest fishing tournament fundraiser in the world and the man in charge of that event is here to talk all about it.  
Veteran outdoors communicator and author Bernie Barringer joins Chad Koel for an in-depth discussion of the fishing challenge and Bernie’s true passion, Minnesota black bear hunting.

This weekend looks to bring generally dry conditions to our region, along with some cooler weather by Sunday. Saturday looks to bring generally mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies for our region. There is a chance of some light showers and thunder showers in northern Minnesota but no big rain makers that we have been seeing a lot in the past few weeks.

Most of the Northland looks to finish up the week on a dry, with a few scattered showers lingering by Friday evening. Showers then clear out through the night Friday, and we stay much drier for the start of the weekend. By Saturday, clouds stay away for most of the morning, with a few showers lingering across northern Wisconsin early, and then showers moving into South Dakota during the evening.
Heavy rains are likely for most of the region on Sunday afternoon.

Long time Grand Forks Herald Outdoors Editor Brad Dokken joins Chad Koel for a lively discussion about the current state of our Northland Outdoors plus some reminiscing on 35 years of outdoors storytelling.

As the holiday weekend begins, there's a chance of scattered rain throughout the region. Winds will diminish after Friday with temperatures in the 60s and 70s while slightly cooler temps can be expected on Memorial Day.

We are looking at the wind making a return after what was a fairly wet week for our region. Storms from Friday night will move out of the Red River Valley area as we head into Saturday morning. These storms move with a cold front that brings strong west winds behind it for Saturday afternoon.
