[♪♪♪] >> Dennis: HI EVERYONE, THANKS FOR WATCHING TONIGHT.

>>> A 15-YEAR-OLD BRAINERD HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT HAS BEEN TAKEN INTO CUSTODY FOR FELONY THREATS OF VIOLENCE.

BRAINERD HIGH SCHOOL STAFF CONTACTED BRAINERD POLICE AFTER THE STUDENT WAS OVERHEARD MAKING THREATENING COMMENTS THE DAY BEFORE.

BRAINERD POLICE OFFICIALS SAY AT NO TIME DID THEY IDENTIFY AN IMMEDIATE THREAT AND THAT NO CONTINUED THREATS TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS STUDENTS, STAFF OR FACILITIES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED.

THE STUDENT WAS TAKEN TO A JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER AND THE CASE HAS BEEN REFERRED TO THE CROW WING COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE FOR PROSECUTION.

>>> A LEVEL 3 PREDATORY OFFENDER HAS MOVED TO A NEW RESIDENCE IN RURAL REMER.

THE CASS COUNTY SHERIFFS OFFICE REPORTS THAT AS OF SEPTEMBER 3RD, 32-YEAR-OLD TYLER MICHAEL GABRELCIK IS RESIDING IN THE VICINITY OF NORTHEAST BOY LAKE TOWNSHIP.

HE WAS RELEASED FROM INCARCERATION IN JULY OF 2024.

WHEN GABRELCIK WAS 18 YEARS OLD, HE ENGAGED IN SEXUAL CONDUCT AND CONTACT WITH A KNOWN FEMALE CHILD ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS OVER AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

CONDUCT INCLUDED GABRELCIK SHOWING SEXUALLY EXPLICIT MATERIAL AND EXPOSING.

CONTACT INCLUDED PENETRATION.

GABRELCIK ALSO POSSESSED CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE MATERIAL.

THE CASS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE SAYS THAT GABRELCIK IS NOT WANTED BY THE POLICE AND THAT THIS NOTIFICATION IS NOT INTENDED TO INCREASE FEAR IN THE COMMUNITY, BUT TO KEEP THE PUBLIC INFORMED.

>>> THE BEMIDJI FIRE DEPARTMENT CAN NOW ACT AS AN ADDITIONAL MEDICAL SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE HEADWATERS SWAT TEAM, AFTER A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED BY THE BELTRAMI COUNTY BOARD.

SINCE THE MID-90'S WHEN THE HEADWATERS SWAT WAS FIRST CREATED, THEY HAVE UTILIZED BEMIDJI AMBULANCE FOR MEDICAL OVER WATCH AND ITS SERVICES.

BUT OTHER OPTIONS HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED TO ACCOMMODATE A CLOSER RESOURCE TO PROVIDE ON-SITE CRITICAL CARE.

BELTRAMI COUNTY SHERIFF JASON RIGGS SAYS THE BEMIDJI FIRE DEPARTMENT IS MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP.

>> THEY ARE TRAINED PARAMEDICS, THEY HAVE E.N.T.s.

WE ARE TRAINING 6 FOLKS.

THIS IS ADDING ON TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IN THEIR CAPACITY AND THEY ARE ALREADY COVERED IN INSURANCE.

THIS IS ADDING ANOTHER RESOURCE TO OUR S.W.A.T.

TEAM SO THAT POLICE OFFICERS CAN DO LAW ENFORCEMENT FUNCTIONS AND LET THEM PROVIDE MEDICAL SERVICES AND MORE CRITICAL CARE ON SCENE TYPE BASIS WHERE WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THE THINGS WE NEED TO CAKE -- TAKE CARE OF.

>> THE HEADWATERS SWAT TEAM HAS A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE CITIES OF BEMIDJI, BLACKDUCK, BAGLEY, AND CLEARWATER COUNTY FOR THEIR SERVICES.

THIS APPROVAL WILL JUST ADD THE BEMIDJI FIRE DEPARTMENT TO THAT LIST OF SERVICE PROVIDERS.

>>> EVERY YEAR, THE BEMIDJI EDUCATION ASSOCIATION RECOGNIZES THREE AREA EDUCATORS WITH AWARDS.

LAST WEEK, THEY ANNOUNCED THE 2025 TEACHER OF THE YEAR, SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL OF THE YEAR, AND LAY EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR, AND EARLIER TODAY, OUR REPORTER SYDNEY DICK SPOKE TO SOME OF THE WINNERS ABOUT WHAT THE RECOGNITION MEANS TO THEM.

>> Reporter: THERE ARE MORE THAN 400 TEACHERS IN THE BEMIDJI SCHOOL DISTRICT AND EVERY YEAR, THERE IS VOTING TO NARROW THE POOL DOWN TO THREE B.E.A.

AWARD WINNERS.

THE 2025 SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL OF THE YEAR WAS AWARDED TO BEMIDJI MIDDLE SCHOOL'S HANNAH, WHO HAS BEEN WORKING AS A REGISTRAR FOR NINE YEARS.

>> I WORK WITH THE SCHEDULES FOR OUR KIDDOS.

I'M CREATING ALL THEIR SCHEDULES FOR ALMOST 1,000 KIDS.

I'M WORKING WITH THE SUBS, I'M WORKING WITH THE TEACHERS, JUST EVERYTHING THAT ANYBODY NEEDS, I'M THERE FOR.

>> Reporter: A BIGGER FAN OF THE BEHIND THE SCENES WORK, HANNAH WAS STILL APPRECIATIVE TO ACCEPT THE AWARD.

>> IT'S SUCH AN AMAZING HONOR.

IT'S SO HUMBLING, ESPECIALLY THE GROUP THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER.

IT'S SUCH A GREAT GROUP.

IT'S HUMBLING.

IT'S GOOD TO HAVE YOUR WORK RECOGNIZED.

>> Reporter: BEFORE STARTING HER CAREER THERE, SHE ATTENDED BEMIDJI MIDDLE SCHOOL AND WAS TAUGHT BY THE 2025 TEACHER OF THE YEAR AWARD RECIPIENT JEFF BROWN WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG.

>> BUILDING THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE KIDS TO ME IS THE BIG PART.

IF THEY TRUST YOU AND CAN TALK TO YOU, YOU CAN HELP GUIDE THEM TO A BETTER PATH AND YOU KNOW, YOU GET TO BE A VOICE FOR THEM.

>> Reporter: BROWN, A SIXTH GRADE SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER BROUGHT HIS LOVE FOR TEACHING FOR 29 YEARS AND HAS BEEN A TEACHER FOR 33 SCHOOL YEARS.

THE B.E.A.

GIVES THE AWARD TO SOMEONE THEY FEEL GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND AND HAS A GENUINE PASSION FOR THEIR JOB.

THEY FEEL THAT BROWN EXCEEDED THE QUALIFICATIONS.

>> THIS IS A GREAT HONOR.

THERE ARE SO MANY GREAT TEACHERS IN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, AND TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR THE WORK YOU DO IS UNEXPLAINABLE REALLY.

>> Reporter: REPORTING FROM BEMIDJI, I'M SYDNEY DICK, LAKELAND NEWS.

>> THE FINAL MAJOR AWARD THAT THE B.E.A.

GIVES OUT EVERY YEAR IS TO THE LAY EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR, WHICH GOES TO SOMEONE NOT EMPLOYED TO THE DISTRICT, BUT WHO SPENDS THEIR TIME IN THE SCHOOLS HELPING KIDS AND DONATING THEIR KNOWLEDGE.

THIS YEAR, THAT WENT TO BRIAN HAZARD, A VOLUNTEER AT LINCOLN ELEMENTARY, WHO SPENDS HIS TIME READING TO THE CHILDREN FIVE DAYS A WEEK.

>>> BEMIDJI CITY OFFICIALS ESTIMATE THAT THE SANFORD CENTER RECEIVED OVER $4 MILLION WORTH OF DAMAGES FROM THE JUNE 21ST STORM.

THE BEMIDJI CITY COUNCIL APPROVED THE CENTER'S THIRD AND HOPEFULLY FINAL PHASE OF RENOVATIONS, WHICH INCLUDES 12 PROJECTS TOTALING AN ESTIMATED $1.2 MILLION.

THE GOAL IS TO COMPLETE ALL RENOVATION PROJECTS BEFORE HOCKEY SEASON BEGINS IN LESS THAN 30 DAYS.

EVEN IF SOME OF THE PROJECTS AREN'T COMPLETED IN-TIME, THE CENTER IS EXPECTED TO BE FULLY OPERATIONAL.

MOST OF THE DAMAGE WAS TO THE SANFORD CENTER ROOF ABOVE THE ARENA.

BUT THAT HAS NOW BEEN FULLY REPAIRED, ALLOWING THE BEAVERS BACK ON THE ICE TO PRACTICE TO PREPARE FOR THEIR FIRST GAME.

>> THAT WAS THE GOAL TO HAVE THE SUITES RECONSTRUCTED AND USABLE BY THAT FIRST WEEK OF OCTOBER, WITH THE CAVEAT THAT A LOT OF TIMES BEING USABLE, THERE ARE SMALL PUNCH LIST ITEMS AND ODDS AND ENDS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED.

EVERYBODY ON THE RECOMMENDATION LETTER UNDERSTANDS THAT EXPECTATION AND THAT'S OUR GOAL AND ANOTHER REASON WHY RICH AND I HUSTLE TO GET THIS RECOMMENDATION LETTER IN FRONT OF THE COUNCIL SO WE CAN GET PEOPLE STARTED ON THE WORK RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE IT'S SEPTEMBER 2ND AND OCTOBER 3RD IS NOT FAR AWAY.

>> SOME REPLACEMENT PROJECTS WILL EITHER TAKE PLACE DURING THE HOCKEY SEASON OR BE PUT ON HOLD UNTIL THE SEASON IS COMPLETE.

>>> SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH, AND CROW WING COUNTY IS WORKING WITH LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO MAKE SURE RESIDENTS ARE READY FOR WHATEVER WEATHER OR OTHER DISASTERS THAT COME THEIR WAY.

CROW WING COUNTY IS WORKING WITH LIBRARIES IN BRAINERD, CROSSLAKE, AND CROSBY, AS WELL AS ACE HARDWARE STORES IN BRAINERD, NISSWA, AND CROSBY, TO BUILD EMERGENCY CHECKLISTS THAT SHOPPERS CAN REQUEST THAT FEATURE RECOMMENDED ITEMS FOR AN EMERGENCY KIT.

RECOMMENDED ITEMS ARE ALSO MARKED AROUND THE STORES WITH A NEON GREEN LABEL, >> OUR REAL GOAL WITH THIS IS TO HELP OUR PUBLIC AND OUR RESIDENTS FEEL EMPOWERED, NOT OVERWHELMED IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS.

SO WE ARE FOCUSING ON HELPING THEM BUILD EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS KITS AND USING THAT AS AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO WORK TOWARDS THAT.

>> CROW WING COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH WILL HOST A TABLE TO SPEAK TO THE PUBLIC ABOUT AN EMERGENCY PREPARATION PLAN ON SEPTEMBER 11TH AT THE HALLETT LIBRARY IN CROSBY, SEPTEMBER 16TH AT THE BRAINERD PUBLIC LIBRARY, AND SEPTEMBER 30TH AT THE CROSSLAKE AREA LIBRARY FROM 9:00 A.M. TO 11:00 A.M. [♪♪♪] >> STILL TO COME ON LAKELAND NEWS AT 10:00.

>> Stacy: TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COOL TO END THE WEEK AND WE COULD SEE SOME SHOWERS AGAIN TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.

I'LL HAVE YOUR FORECAST IN A FEW MINUTES.

>> COMING UP AFTER THE BREAK, THE CROSSLAKE COMMUNITY CENTER IS GEARING UP FOR THEIR FOURTH AND FINAL BOOK SALE OF THE YEAR.

[♪♪♪] [♪♪♪] >> AND NOW MORE NEWS WITH DENNIS WEIMANN.

[♪♪♪] >>> THE CROSSLAKE AREA LIBRARY IS GEARING UP FOR ITS FINAL BOOK SALE OF THE YEAR.

EACH YEAR THE CROSSLAKE LIBRARY HOSTS FOUR BOOK SALES TO HELP THE COMMUNITY GAIN ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE BOOKS THAT ARE IN GOOD CONDITION.

PATRONS CAN WALK OUT THE DOOR WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF GENRES FROM BIOGRAPHIES TO GRAPHIC NOVELS, WITH NO BOOK BEING PRICED AT MORE THAN $4.

>> A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK BOOK SALES ARE JUST PLACES TO DIG THROUGH BOOKS BUT OUR BOOK SALE IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN THAT.

WE HAVE, WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE AN INTERACTIVE BOOK SALE.

WE HAVE PEOPLE THERE THAT CAN HELP YOU FIND BOOKS, WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT LOVE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT BOOKS.

>> PROCEEDS FROM THE EVENT WILL GO DIRECTLY TO THE LIBRARY.

ANYONE WISHING TO PICK UP A BOOK FOR THEMSELVES CAN VISIT THE CROSSLAKE LIBRARY FRIDAY OR SATURDAY FROM 10:00 A.M. TO 3:00 P.M. >>> TIME FOR WEATHER, STACY JOINS US.

ANOTHER DAY OF RAIN IN THE AREA.

>> Stacy: YEAH, IT WAS A PRETTY GLOOMY, WET, DRIZZLY DAY OUT THERE.

WE HAD SOME RAINFALL AND WE WILL BE SEEING COOL TEMPERATURES TONIGHT AND AGAIN TOMORROW.

WE'LL CONTINUE TO HAVE SOME CHANCES OF RAIN IN THERE AS WELL.

IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE EARLY NEXT WEEK BEFORE WE SEE THOSE TEMPERATURES STARTING TO WARM BACK [♪♪♪] >> AND NOW THE WEATHER WITH STACY CHRISTENSON.

[♪♪♪] >> Stacy: WELL, IT WAS SURE A GLOOMY DAY WITH THE CLOUD COVER.

WE HAD SOME DRIZZLE AND LIGHT RAIN, AND COOL TEMPERATURES JUST TO PUT THE ICING ON THE CAKE.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE LINGERING RAIN SHOWERS OVERNIGHT, MORE RAIN IS POSSIBLE IN THE AREA TOMORROW, TEMPERATURES STAY COOL INTO THE WEEKEND, AND IN FACT, WE SHOULD BE SEEING WARMER TEMPERATURES AS WE HEAD INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

RIGHT NOW IN BEMIDJI, IT'S 40 DEGREES AT THE AIRPORT.

WE PICKED UP ANOTHER 0.029-INCH OF RAIN TODAY.

IN BRAINERD, WE ARE STILL SEEING SOME LIGHT RAIN AND SOME FOG.

IT IS 47 DEGREES.

THE DEW POINT IS 46.

WINDS ARE NORTHEAST AT 18 MILES PER HOUR, WITH GUSTS UP TO 25.

LOOKING AT OUR SATELLITE AND RADAR, WE CAN SEE THE LARGE AREA OF RAINFALL, WHICH HAS BEEN IMPACTING OUR VIEWING AREA THIS EVENING.

CONTINUING TO SEE THAT RAIN OUT THERE, IT WILL TAPER OFF A LITTLE BIT OVERNIGHT.

WE WILL HAVE MORE CHANCES OF RAIN, ESPECIALLY IN NORTHEASTERN MINNESOTA TOMORROW, BUT AGAIN IT WILL BE CHILLY OUT THERE, HIGHS IN THE 50s WITH SOME WARMER TEMPERATURES IN STORE FOR NEXT WEEK.

SOME WEATHER PHOTOS TO SHARE WITH YOU TONIGHT.

MARK TAKING THIS BEAUTIFUL PICTURE, WITH THE STEAM COMING OFF THE LAKE THERE.

ARLENE IN LONGVILLE REPORTING CLOUDY AND DRIZZLE WITH A HIGH OF 52.

JOAN IN LAPORTE, CLOUDY SKIES WITH 0.5-INCH OF RAIN, BUT IT WAS STILL RAINING WHEN SHE MADE HER REPORT.

ON OUR ALMANAC, BRAINERD TOPPING OUT AT ONLY 52, AVERAGE HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID-70s, JUST TO CONTRAST WHAT WE WOULD NORMALLY EXPECT THIS TIME OF YEAR.

40 DEGREES FOR THE LOW, SUNSET AT 7:47, BEMIDJI REACHING A HIGH OF 48, THE LOW WAS 40, AND SUNRISE AT 6:44.

TOMORROW'S FORECAST, WE WILL ONCE AGAIN HAVE CHANCES OF RAIN AND AGAIN THE BEST CHANCE WILL BE IN NORTHEASTERN MINNESOTA, BUT WE COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE DAY ACROSS OUR VIEWING AREA.

ANOTHER COOL DAY TEMPERATURE-WISE, HIGHS IN THE LOW 50s ACROSS NORTHERN MINNESOTA, WITH HIGHS IN THE MID-50s IN CENTRAL MINNESOTA.

SO OUR FORECAST TONIGHT, CLOUDY SKIES, LINGERING SHOWERS, LOWS DOWN TO ABOUT 42.

MOSTLY CLOUDY TOMORROW WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS, HIGHS NEAR 53, BUT IT WILL BE BREEZY WITH NORTHWEST WINDS AT 10 TO 25.

LOOKING AT OUR WEEKEND FORECAST, A LITTLE BIT QUIETER SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, AND WE START TO WARM UP, HIGHS ON SUNDAY NEAR 62, BUT WE SHOULD FINALLY BE BACK IN THE 70s AS WE HIT MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

BACK TO YOU.

>> Dennis: THANKS STACY.

CHARLIE IS HERE NOW WITH OUR SPORTS.

BEMIDJI SOCCER PLAYING TODAY, DID YOU GET RAIN FOR THAT?

>> Charlie: YES, IT WAS GLOOMY, IT WAS BLUSTERY, IT WAS WINDY AND RAINY FOR SOME SOCCER.

IT PLAYED A LITTLE BIT OF A ROLE IN THE GAME.

WE HAVE THE HIGHLIGHTS IN THAT AND MORE COMING UP AFTER THE BREAK.

[♪♪♪] [♪♪♪] >> AND NOW YOUR LOCAL SPORTS WITH CHARLIE YAEGER.

[♪♪♪] >>> ON TUESDAY, BEMIDJI BOYS SOCCER WAS ABLE TO FINALLY BREAK A STRING OF TIES WITH GRAND RAPIDS AND CAME AWAY WITH A VICTORY.

THE LUMBERJACKS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BREAK ANOTHER STREAK AT HOME TONIGHT, 8 STRAIGHT LOSSES TO DULUTH EAST.

THE JACKS PICKED UP THE YEARLY GAME IN 2017 AND HAVE YET TO BEAT THE GREYHOUNDS.

KELLEN HERE TRIES TO GRAB THE BALL BUT IT SLIPS OUT.

WESTLAND ALMOST CASHES IN.

IT WAS 0-0 AT THE HALF.

THEN ANOTHER CORNER, WILLIAM DROPS IT IN, DOMINIC BUR -- BURIES IT.

NOW UNDER 15 TO PLAY, STILL POURING RAIN AND THE BALL SLIPS RIGHT OUT OF GRAY'S HANDS, AND AUSTIN WITH A LOOK, BUT LOGAN ABLE TO CLEAR, KEEPING IT A 1-0 ADVANTAGE.

NOW REMAINING SOLID IN THE NET, PRO-SAVE HERE OFF THE HEADER.

THEY COULD NOT CATCH THE PROWLERS, LOSING 25-20.

THEN IN THE THIRD, THIEF RIVER CONTINUES TO PLAY WELL, MARLEY TIPS IT OUT OF THE LUMBERJACKS' REACH.

THEY FALL IN STRAIGHT SETS TO THIEF RIVER FALLS.

>>> IN GIRLS VOLLEYBALL, BRAINERD STILL TRYING TO TALLY THEIR FIRST WIN, HOSTING SARTELL IN A CONFERENCE MATCHUP.

SECOND SET, BRAINERD DOWN ONE SET TO ZERO, PAIGE SKOGLUND, UNLEASHES BACK ROW, WARRIORS UP 8-7.

FEW POINTS LATER, BLUE AND WHITE UP 10-8, BELLA GOGGLEYE, GETS THE KILL OFF THE TIP, WARRIORS UP 11-8.

BUT SARTELL CAME TO PLAY TONIGHT, NOW UP 18-14 IN THE SET, AVA THEISEN, MUSCLES ONE HOME FOR THE FINISH, SARTELL WOULD TAKE THE SECOND SET 25-16.

AND GO ON TO TAKE DOWN BRAINERD THREE SETS TO ZERO.

WARRIORS WILL TRAVEL TO SAUK RAPIDS THIS SATURDAY FOR A TOURNAMENT.

STILL LOOKING FOR THE FIRST W. >>> MORE IN VOLLEYBALL, SAINT CLOUD CATHEDRAL BEATS LITTLE FALLS.

ROYALTON AND CROSBY-IRONTON GETTING WINS.

ROSEAU BEATS WARROAD.

PARK RAPIDS FALLS.

LAKE OF THE WOODS GETS THE WIN AND SO DOES WALKER-HACKENSACK-AKELEY, AND FOSSTON IN FOUR SETS OVER MAHNOMEN.

>>> IN GIRLS SWIMMING AND DIVING, BRAINERD LOOKING TO STAY UNDEFEATED, HOSTING INNER-CONFERENCE OPPONENT FERGUS FALLS.

>>> A FEW MORE SCORES FOR YOU.

IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL, CASS LAKE-BENA LOSES TONIGHT.

IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, THE MINNESOTA TWINS BEAT THE CHICAGO WHITE SOX -- EXCUSE ME, THEY'RE UP 7-6 IN THE BOTTOM OF THE 6th.

RIGHT NOW VEGAS ACES AND THE MINNESOTA LYNX IN A TIGHT ONE IN THE THIRD PERIOD.

>> Dennis: DO THEY HAVE A LOT OF THE SEASON LEFT?

>> Charlie: NO, THERE ARE THREE GAMES AFTER TONIGHT.

VEGAS IS COMING IN WITH A 12-GAME WIN STREAK, LOOKING TO GET THE SECOND SEED, BUT RIGHT NOW THE WNBA, THEY LOCKED UP THE NUMBER ONE SEED, SO THEY WOULDN'T SEE THEM AGAIN UNTIL THE CHAMPIONSHIP IF THEY GET THERE.

>> Dennis: TONIGHT IS THE LAST FISHING TIP OF THE YEAR, WHICH MEANS THE SUMMER IS JUST ABOUT OVER.

WE HAVE THE SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE FALL.

WE MIGHT AS WELL GET TO IT.

THE FINAL EDITION OF FISHING TIPS THIS SEASON.

RAY AND MANDY TEACH US ABOUT HAIR JIGS AND HOW TO USE THEM EFFECTIVELY.

>> WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT HAIR JIGS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE THEY WORK WELL, BUT THEY ABSOLUTELY DO WORK.

MOST OF THE TIME WE DON'T TIP THEM WITH ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR ONCE IN A WHILE WE WILL PUT A TRAILER HOOK ON IT LIKE THIS ONE, THIS YELLOW ONE.

IT HAS A TRAILER HOOK AND A LOT OF TIMES YOU CATCH THEM ON THE TRAILER HOOK ITSELF, NOT SO MUCH ON THE JIG.

HAIR JIGS COME IN EVERY IMAGINABLE COLOR AND EVERY BULK SIZE.

YOU CAN GET SMALL ONES, LIKE WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE WITH THE WHITE ONE.

IT'S PRETTY SMALL.

YOU CAN GET BIG FAT ONES THAT TAKE UP A LOT MORE SPACE IN THE WATER, AND THEY ARE VERY POPULAR.

USUALLY WE CATCH THEM WITH JIG ACTIONS UP AND DOWN.

MANDY IS GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT A COUPLE SHE HAS THERE.

>> IN THE HAIR JIG FAMILY, YOU HAVE TO TALK MARIBOU.

THESE ARE AMAZING.

EVERYBODY WANTS TO STOP AND THINK ABOUT THEM FOR SMALL MOUTH BASS AND LARGE MOUTH BASS.

HERE'S A SECRET, THEY'RE AWESOME FOR WALLEYE.

YOU DON'T NECESSARILY NEED TO TIP THEM WITH SOMETHING BUT HERE'S MY RECOMMENDATION.

YOU CAN TAKE A LITTLE PIECE OF A PLASTIC WORM AT THE END OF IT, JUST LIKE WHAT IS ON HERE RIGHT NOW.

YOU CAN PUT THAT ON THERE.

WHAT THAT DOES IS WHEN THIS GETS WET, IT GIVES IT A LITTLE BIT MORE POOFY ACTION AND BUOYANCY.

YOU CAN TIP THESE WITH A LEECH AND THEY'RE EXTREMELY DEADLY.

>> I'M RAY GILDOW.

>> AND I'M MANDY UHRICH, THE BASS N' BIOLOGIST.

>> Dennis: WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK RAY AND MANDY FOR ALL THEIR WORK WITH FISHING TIPS.

YOU SHOOT THOSE.

>> Charlie: YEAH, IT TAKES LESS AND LESS TIME TO SHOOT IT ALL BECAUSE THEY'RE GETTING SO GOOD AT IT.

CLEARLY WE DIDN'T SHOOT IT TODAY.

>> Dennis: YEAH, IT WAS A SUNNY DAY WHEN THAT WAS DONE.

WE DO IT EARLY IN THE SUMMER.

>> Charlie: SITTING AND AROUND WATCHING THE PROS CATCH FISH, AND I GET ALL THE SAME FISHING TIPS YOU DO.

IT'S BEEN FUN.

>> Dennis: AND THEY COME UP WITH GOOD SEGMENTS EVERY YEAR.

I DON'T REMEMBER TOO MANY REPEATS.

>> Charlie: NO, RAY AND MANDY WORK REALLY HARD TO FIND NEW THINGS TO TALK TO PEOPLE ABOUT.

I LOVED WORKING WITH THEM.

IT'S BEEN GREAT.

>> Dennis: ALL RIGHT, LET'S GET ONE LAST LOOK AT OUR WEATHER BEFORE WE SAY GOOD NIGHT.

>> Stacy: WE COULD SEE LINGERING SHOWERS OVERNIGHT, LOWS DOWN TO 42, NORTH WINDS 5 TO 20.

LOOKING AT TOMORROW, MOSTLY CLOUDY, A CHANCE OF SHOWERS, HIGHS NEAR 53, AND WE'LL HAVE THE NORTHWEST WINDS PICKING UP 10 TO 25.

WE'LL HAVE COOL TEMPERATURES INTO THE START OF THE WEEKEND, BUT WE START TO RECOVER AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEK.

FAIRLY QUIET THIS WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK, HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 70s MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

>> Dennis: THAT'S GOING TO DO IT FOR US TONIGHT.

HAVE A GREAT NIGHT, WE'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

>> Charlie: GOOD NIGHT.
