Brian “Bro” Brosdahl is one of the most recognizable faces in the winter fishing industry, a pied piper, of sorts, who draws a crowd wherever he goes.
A congenial sort with a gift for gab, Bro — as he’s known to most — and his wife, Heather, live in Max, Minnesota, in northern Itasca County. Besides working as a fishing guide for perch and walleye both summer and winter, Bro spends a fair bit of time on the road promoting products for a long list of sponsors, including Otter, Northland Fishing Tackle, Aqua-Vu, Humminbird and Minn Kota, to name just a few. |

He will be at the Arrowhead Ice Fishing and Winter Show in Duluth on Friday and Saturday and at the Cabela’s store in Rogers, Minnesota, on Sunday.
Earlier this week, fresh from a stint at the St. Paul Ice Fishing and Winter Sports Show, Bro talked with Herald outdoors writer Brad Dokken about a wide range of ice fishing-related topics, as he does every couple years about this time. Here is an edited transcript of that conversation. |
