Minnesota fishing

[Cha]

I live in Minneapolis MN and would really love to get one more open water fishing trip in.  Does anybody know of any places where I can catch any species of fish this time of year.

thanks,

Open water this time of year will be tough, lakes are freezing over and you best bet will be rivers with powerplants. Also check your local bodies of waters, you might find some open water. Bass bite has been tough, but what I hear people catching them on are Swim baits, lipless cranks, jerk baits, and spinner baits. I haven't been out since early November and would love to get out however dropping temps will make it difficult.
