St. Cloud, MN -  Anderson Trucking Service (ATS) has teamed up with Hall of Fame fisherman Ted Takasaki to offer a new online column called Ted's Fishing Tips.

The monthly feature will appear on Anderson's website, at http://www.drive4ats.com/Ted-Takasaki-Fishing-Tips.jsp, and will feature interviews and insights into the enjoyment of fishing. "Life isn't just about work," said ATS CEO Rollie Anderson. "Work is important, but so is relaxation. We're happy to bring drivers and their families some information they can enjoy in their off hours."

 So far, the Ted's Fishing Tip column has explored topics ranging from a discussion with Ron Lindner about his invention of the Lindy Rig, an entry by Ted on how to use the Spinner Rig, Small ball ice fishing, as well as the three-dimensional world of walleyes.

ATS is also offering its drivers a chance to win all-expense-paid fishing trips with Takasaki. Drivers who have been with ATS for 30 days or more will automatically
be entered to win the guided fishing trips.

 Ted Takasaki is a Hall of Fame professional angler who won the prestigious Professional Walleye Trail Championship in 1998.  He still holds the all time tournament record for a one day limit of 5 walleyes, which weighed an amazing 53.2 pounds.  Takasaki has been featured in many national outdoor magazines and has appeared on numerous fishing television shows and is considered one of America's top walleye and multi-species anglers.
