NFL legend and passionate angler Randy Moss brought his new fishing series, Chasing 10, to the legendary waters of Leech Lake and Trapper's Landing Lodge was proud to be part of the adventure. But this trip was about more than chasing a trophy fish. Randy teamed up with the Children's Cancer Research Fund to help raise awareness and support for kids fighting cancer, turning a day on the water into something much bigger. With Leech Lake as the backdrop, Randy and the crew cast their lines for a cause worth chasing.
Turns out, Randy Moss is still catching footballs—just a different kind these days. Randy and the Chasing 10 crew hit Leech Lake and reeled in some chunky smallmouth bass, often nicknamed “footballs” by anglers for their thick, round shape.
There's a reason anglers return to Leech Lake year after year.
As one of Minnesota's largest lakes, Leech Lake offers seemingly endless water to explore and opportunities to target walleye, muskie, northern pike, bass and more.
