| I can't believe that I completely forgot the most important thing... YES all of the proceeds do directly to the Ronald McDonald House !! Last year we raised $4659.88 for them. Hopefully this year we beat that !!
Good Luck fishing!!

Absolutely. Over the years we have raised over $35,000.00 for the Ronald McDonald House. The Gerrits have stepped up the tradition in a big way, are running a very tight ship and an enjoyable event.
Kevin loved to fish, and especially liked fishing Pelican Lake. After I experienced having a son in critical care long term, it was a no brainer to name the Ronald McDonald House as the Charity benefiting from an annual event in Kevin's honor. |

Location: Land of the Musky | Good deal!! Count me in then. 2 rods and 50 lures. If you can send me the address or post it here.
Good cause! I have seen first hand for the last 5 years with my daughter what good the Ronald McDonald charity can do. If any of you ever want to know how much you really have, just go walk through a Children's Hospital. Wow!

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | James, I'll let Gerrits know and you can send donations there. We'll raise a pile of cash for the Ronald McDonald House selling tickets for your donations, and we can't thank you enough. |

Location: Rhinelander, WI | Excellent, I hate wishing the summer away, but I can't wait for this event again. Don't know if I will be able to drag my dad out for one more year or if he will give up the back deck to my son, but either way the Roberts family will be represented.
Thanks

| This one sounds like it will be a great time. Wanted to fish this lake since I was a youngin peeking over the window on the way to Eagle River. Sent the form in last week and wanted to ask if you had received one for Team Miller/Grenzer. |

Location: Spencer, Wisconsin | Last year was my first to fish this tournament and I totally loved it. I have always and will ever have a soft spot in my heart for Pelican Lake and Lakeview. The Gerrits and Steve Worrall ran a wonderful event and looking forward to fishing it again this fall!

Location: Bloomington, MN | Hi Garry!! If your response is for TET62 he fished the tournament last year, but he wasn't the team captain. Terry Thomson and I, Clark Anderson, are fishing out of his nice boat this year vs. the blue Princecraft that scares the fish away! My history is being much more of a Gilligan and not a "Skipper". I was up for the walleye opener and did some shallow water scouting due to the favorable conditions. Pelican has more muskies I've seen in years, and the average is much larger. I saw one I'm guessing was over 50" (insert new Tuffy Boat Cheer here). If I can catch a 48"+ a few weeks after last years tournament, a 50"+ will be boated this year. Pelican is or will once become one of best trophy muskie lakes in the state of Wisconsin. The proceeds from this tournament go to the "Ronald McDonald House", which is a legitimate foundation. The entry fee for what you might possibly win is very low! You receive a fantastic dinner, the best Muskie hat you have ever put on your noggin, and the opportunity to spend time with some of the finest people that share the same passion about the elusive muskellunge. Mr. Worrall, please post a link so MFirsters/KWMMC particpants can donant to this wonderful foundation. Whoever got the 39"-40" tiger in last years tournament, please send me a pic so I can see what I lost 3 weeks later! |

Location: Hopefully on the water | Clark, Here is the Picture of my brother in-laws Tiger from last year. 41" if I remeber correctly. I know it was his first tiger that he got and what a better time to get it but in a tourney.
I agree this tournament is a great tourney, extremly well run, fun time, and the proceeds go to a great cause that hopefully needs to be used as little as possible by anyone. |

| Just a reminder that last year's contestants have 2 weeks to ensure their spots then it's first come. We have a great start already with 35 boats entered and 4 boats on the waiting list just itching to fish the tourney.
GOOD LUCK FISHING!!

| Are there any open spots left for the event? I am trying to find a partner, and round up the necessary equipment. |

Location: Stevens Point, WI | As of last week Wednesday when I saw Gary, he said they were sitting right at a 100 boats so far. I would imagine unless he's had a bunch more come in within the last week, then open spots are still available. |

| We still have 23 spots left for the tournament so send your entries in. I am getting alot of great donations to raffle off this year again. Remember all of the proceeds go to the Ronald McDonald House and hopefully we can give away a boat this year!! |

| Lets go guy's! gotta fill up those last 23 spots!!!! Its a great tourney and a great cause what a better way to forget the troubles of the present day to day grind ! can't wait to get up there!!! Mike |
|

|
| So, is the field for the event all filled up? I believe at the time that I managed to find a victim (I mean partner), it was said that there were just thirteen openings left. Actually, this team is looking to put some baits on display, and turn some heads, for this event on Saturday. |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Looks like about 8 spots left, last I checked. Several usually sign up the night before, so it should fill. If not, anything over 100 is plenty for Pelican anyhow. See you there... |
