Fishing with the Guides By George Langley

All species providing action in deep weeds We’ve had both types of summer weather lately, rain and storms one day and some absolutely great weather the next day. It seems that August and September have brought us our warmest weather over the last couple of years, so we can expect some of that hot stuff in the next six weeks. Many lakes are now showing us some algae blooms even though the water temperatures are not that warm. We have water temperatures in the low 70s through most of our region. That’s pretty chilly for this part of the country. Water levels have stayed pretty high — much bet- ter than the last few years. Weed growth is good now, The Department of Natural Resources has issued more than tags in Zone 7 here. Experts said winter mortality was localized, with the weeds right to the surface on many lakes.

Brett Favre deserves Packers Hall of Fame

The Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame Inc. announced Monday that it will induct former Packers quarterback Brett Favre at the 45th Hall of Fame Induction Banquet to be held the evening of July 18, 2015. All I can say is: It’s about time. The event also will feature the retirement of No. 4 by the Packers organization. Favre’s name and No. 4 subsequently will be unveiled inside Lambeau Field on the north façade during a ceremony at a to-be-deter- mined game during the 2015 season. The joint announcement took place at the site of the new Packers Hall of Fame, currently under construc- tion in the Lambeau Field Atrium and set to open in 2015. The announcement was made by Packers Hall of Fame Inc. President Perry Kidder and Packers Presi- dent/CEO Mark Murphy. Bob Harlan, a member of the Packers Hall of Fame Inc. executive committee and chairman emeritus of the Packers, also was on hand. Favre joined the announcement via telephone. “We’re very pleased to announce we will induct Brett Favre, one of the Packers’ greatest players ever, into the Packers Hall of Fame,” Kidder said. “The event will mark just the sixth time in our organization’s his- tory that a single person will be inducted, fitting recog- nition of his elite contributions.” Northland Pines football players ready to play college football Coach Eric Swanson made the announcement during a ceremo- “Everyone in the Packers organization is looking include, from left, Tanner Beaman, Cooper Kerner and Jon Konz. ny last week. —Staff Photo By RYAN BURGY forward to this very special induction night,” Murphy said. “Brett’s impact on the franchise was tremendous, and retiring his number at the ceremony will be a unique and fitting tribute.
