ESPN Calls Up Blue Ribbon for Ice Fishing Guides
Twin Cities Ice Fishing with ESPN
Knowing that 1 million+ visitors were expected to visit the Twin Cities for the big football game this February, Blue Ribbon Bait & Tackle Owner Josh Stevenson was anticipating even more ice fishing guide trips than usual, but he wasn't expecting this...
"I got a phone call a few weeks ago from someone asking about my guiding availability during the week of the big game. They said they were with ESPN, so I figured it was a corporate team outing. But then they started talking about keeping it quiet, as there was a chance it may involve filming with some of their TV personalities. It was an awesome surprise to learn I'd be on national TV with the hosts from Sunday NFL Countdown!"
We're proud that our very own Josh Stevenson put former Pro QB Matt Hasselbeck & former Pro Head Coach Rex Ryan into some nice ice fishing right here in Minnesota! Check out a highlight video below:

As a fellow ice fisherman... I am wildly impressed with the size of the fish that popped out of @Hasselbeck’s icehole. It wasn’t “The Minnetonka Miracle”, but very impressive https://t.co/iiRio3m4Nu

Saturday
Matt Hasselbeck & Rex Ryan weren't the only names Blue Ribbon took out ice fishing this past week. The leadership of Nike wanted a true taste of winter in Minnesota on Saturday, and found great success ice fishing as well!
