| WMT SERIES™ INVITATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP™ NAMAKAGON LODGING
For the teams that will be competing in the 2013 WMT Series™ Invitational Championship™ on Lake Namakagon on the last weekend of September, the 28th and 29th, the Lakewoods Resort just released a block of rooms that were previously reserved for a wedding that is taking place on the same weekend, however do not wait. You can contact Lakewoods Resort at 715-794-2561 and ask for their special rates. All championship activities (Friday night registration and rules, Saturday & Sunday ease-outs, Saturday's leader board and door prizes, and Sunday awards) will be held at Lakewoods Resort so staying there would be very convenient for our contestants.
Other lodging options can be located by logging on to two area community web sites; www.cable4fun.com and www.clamlakewi.com . There are several resorts on Lake Namakagon and some motels a very short distance from the lake, especially Clam Lake.
WMT SERIES™ RHINELANDER CHAIN FINAL 2013 QUALIFYIER
The World Muskie Tournament Series™ (WMT Series™) will be concluding the 2013 regular season of muskie qualifiers with the Muskie Country Tournament Circuit™ (MCTC™) on the Rhinelander Chain tourney on Sunday, September 8th. The Muskie Country™ Rhinelander Chain event represents the final chance for tournament competitors to qualify for most prestigious muskie event of the season and the biggest cash pay-out of a muskie tournament in 2013 at the WMT Series™ Invitational Championship™. The WMT Series™ Invitational Championship™ has set records for the last three years with the highest cash pay-outs for a muskie tournament circuit championship with last year's top prize of $50,000.00 and a purse of over $70,000.00. This year could see that record falling again for the fourth straight year.
The WMT Series™ has made the Rhinelander Chain of Lakes a regular stop for all thirteen years since its inception and for very good reasons, the chain has a reputation of producing big fish (three times the chain has been responsible for crowning the winners of the Hunter Trophy™ for the biggest muskie of the year named after Mike & Benji Hunter who captured the largest muskie during the 2001 inaugural season on Boom Lake,) but also for the numbers of muskies as well. This year's Muskie Country™ Rhinelander Chain qualifier is the latest in the season that the WMT Series™ has ever hosted the event and normally early September muskie fishing on the chain is at its best but this year, with the muskie bite finally starting to “heat up”, could be the best production in numbers of muskies registered 34 inches or better the WMT Series™ has ever witnessed, and it is a real possibility that one of those giant 50 inch plus muskie that the water is famous for, could show up in a team's net that would win them an extra $3,500.00 and a free graphite reproduction from Fittante Taxidermy.
Not only will teams be looking to capture the bragging rights of a tournament victory, but there will also be teams looking for the Rhinelander Chain to gain points for the World Muskie Tournament Series™ Rankings™ to earn the MCTC™ Champion™ that could be worth an extra $5,000.00 (depending on the fields of events) and the highest honor in muskie tournament fishing, the Lapp Trophy™ for winning the team of the year that could be worth an extra $20,000.00 (depending on the fields of events).
On the same weekend of the Rhinelander Chain event, there is a tournament on Lake Mohawksin the previous day Saturday, September 7th. Both tournaments still have some open spots and there is still time to send in your entries to get an earlier starting position. Fishing hours will start at 6:30am and conclude at 3:30pm with the headquarters at Sara Park for the Lake Mohawksin tournament and at the Flyin Finn Pub and Resort for the Rhinelander event. The entry fee for a WMT Series™ event is $330 per two angler team and each tournament is scheduled to pay down five places with first place paying out $10,000.00 (with a field of 75 boats). We will also be accepting entries for Lake Mohawksin, and the Rhinelander Chain tournament, the Friday before the tournaments at Sara Park (on the shores of Lake Mohawksin) at 900 W. Somo Ave, Tomahawk from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. There will also be an opportunity to enter into the Rhinelander Chain of Lakes event on Saturday, September 7th at the Flyin Finn Pub & Resort (on the shores of Boom Lake) at 3924 HWY 47 from 6:30 pm to 7:00 pm.
