| We can't believe it's that time of year again to start planning the tournament but it really is. We are in the process of getting donations for the tournament. All of the proceeds from the tournament go to the Ronald Mc Donald House!! Last year we donated over $7800.00 to them!! Which is just exceptional...it's due to the generous pockets of the musky fishermen and the sponsors that donate to the tournament!! Thank you!! If anyone is interested in donating to the tournament, please let us know and we can send you out more information on the event. Or If you are interested in fishing the tournament on Sept 8 please let us know and we will get you on the mailing list.
