Posts: 929 Location: Rhinelander. | Just got home and thought some of you might be curious as to how it went. 71 teams fished under very windy conditions ans some rain. Overall it was really a pretty nice day. 22 fish caught and 3 teams doubled. I believe the biggest was 431/2. Was a good time and I'll be back tomorrow. My partner and I had fish but all came up too short. Tomorrow is another day. Good luck to rest of the anglers. Pfeiff | ||

Sunday morning brought thunder storms that delayed the start an half hour, but when the tournament started, not even the relentless rain could put a halt to the muskie activity as the team of Don Grant and Bob Weeks would score the first of the day at 7:07am with a 43 1/4" muskie that added to their previous days catch of 34 3/4 inches at 8:02am.

John and Andy Meyer would triple up for the contest at 10:00am and regain the lead with a 35 3/4 inch muskie. The father and son team of Greg and Tom Kliss tallied a 38 3/4" muskie at 9:00am to go along with their previous days fish of 34 3/4 incher and a top ten finish. Jason Weik and Jason Baratka would tally their second of the tourney at 9:48am and 42 1/4 inches to add to their Saturday's muskie of 41 1/4 inches at 9:57am that would land the team an eighth place finish with a ten point deduction. At 9:12am, the team of Mike Etzel and Paul Parise would score on their third muskie of the contest with a 38 incher with their earlier day's catch of 39 1/2 inches at 7:12am, that when added to their Saturdays catch of 35 1/4 inches at 8:22am, gave the team the victory. The last team to score on a muskie for the day and the contest would come at 12:29pm by Neil Barnett and Bill Hill with a 40 1/4 incher and would be the final team to double up for the event with a 36" muskie at 6:31am captured Saturday, but with a ten point deduction, would place the team at the nineth spot.

During the weekend, anglers will be looking also to score big by capturing a 50 inch or better muskie to take home the more than $18,000.00 fifty inch pool. Both of the Pike/Round and Squirrel tournaments still have some open spots. It is still possible to sign up for the events by logging on to the WMT's web site www.WMTseries.com for the entry form, and mailing it to the WMT.
