Location: Waukesha & Land O Lakes, WI | The season is fast coming to an end, but we have one more shot at some money this up coming weekend. The IMTT is holding its final even of 04 on Okauchee Lake this saturday. Who's in?
Is the rules and reg meeting at Jolly Mons or Musky Mikes?
Be sure to bring a bag of Salt for saturday morning, lows will be in the lower 20ยบ's.

With temps in the 20's it will feel balmy compared to last years event. We had temps in the single digits. Whoa now that's brisk baby. The registration will be held at Musky Mike's. You can register from 5 - 7 p.m. The reading of the rules and ease out order lottery will follow shortly after at Jollymons. If any would like to register before Friday. They can do so by stopping by Musky Mike's. For directions call (262) 560-1189. Ask for Mike. This will be a great event for all who dare to brave the elements. Are any of you tough enough?

20's is great muskie weather.
Single digits was tough last year.
I will have to miss this one due to my wife bieng down for a few weeks with a medical issue. I will be with my daughter in southern Wisconsin for a audition she is scheduled to do for a modeling gig. Then a compitition with her cheerleading group after that.
Good luck to all, don't forget the suckers........................

Location: Menomonee Falls, WI | Hey Joel, That was a tough way to learn the rules. That totally sucked! Kevin & I felt terrible for you and your partner. By the way, the rules meeting is 7:00 pm @ Jolly's. 
You still have to feel good that you were one of only 3 teams to catch a legal. I know there were several teams that would have liked to say they got slimed. See ya at the meeting. For any participants the registration location has been changed to Musky Mike's.
You can register from 5:00 till 7:00. The rules and ease out lottery will follow at Jolly's.
See you there.
Abe

Location: Oconomowoc, WI | We had a meeting last night and know of 21 confirmed boats so far. This doesn't include all of the "yeahs" and "I'm in" you are referring to. I'd bet we will have about 30-35 boats. Still plenty of room for anyone who wants to enter...... |

Location: Waukesha & Land O Lakes, WI | BBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...it was chilly yesterday morning, but warmed nicely by the time the tourny started. Winds were light to nill, so trolling and using the TM was a must. My partner and I ended up seeing 7 Muskys total. 4 we saw just laying around doing nothing, I lost about a 20" 2x on a Undertaker and my partner lost a 26" on a baby depth raider. We also missed one fish on a sucker rig. By the looks of the bite pattern on a 14" sucker. it was at least 40".
I had to leave at 4 to be at work, so i dont know the results. I believe I heard Abe and Kevin saying they needed one more, so I assume they got one and I heard 2 other calls for Judge Boats, with one saying the fish measured 34". Had a really really fun time out there, the weather was gorgeous. Musky Mike, Damon, Abe, Kevin and all the guys who put this together do a great job. Free beer at the rules meeting and food following the tourny? 1st class stuff guys...Thanks. |

| Gander, thanks for the cd. I owe you again. Tournament was a blast. Dragging meat was the way to go. Unfortunatley I didn't start doing it till 2 pm. Thanks Mike and staff for doing a great job. Not bad for a bunch of guys who don't get paid to put the time and effort in running a tournament. It was also nice to see new faces at this tournament.
Remember 100% payback.
Mike mentioned a get together later in the year. Be nice if we could get a good dinner together for around $50.00 per person . Take $15 or $20 for food and the rest towards next years prizes. Kind of like a DU Banquest.
Would be a good way to gain interest and get more money pumped into the tournament.
Just an idea.

| Ya , we got lucky and made it. Thank god for the headon vamp. Joes charged for next year. I thought he was going to hit muskie mike up for airfair too.
I think this tournament could be pretty good next year.
Gander ,Billy and I are in for all the southern WMT and the Lac Vieux desert and North twin tournaments.
Want to see what dates IMTT and Simply Fishing are next year before we pick anymore.
