| On Saturday, June 2nd the Muskie Country Tournament Circuit™ (MCTC™) hosted for the first time ever in a WMT Series™ sanctioned event a one-day qualifier on two separate waters at the same time with anglers competing on the Pike/Round Lake Chain or on Squirrel Lake. Before the tournament started, the question of what body of water would produce the most muskies and which one would produce the biggest muskie would be answered only after the competition had concluded. There would be seven muskie registered in total with five coming from the Pike/Round Chain and two from Squirrel Lake but the largest muskie, a 43.50 incher would come from Squirrel.
The first muskie to be registered for the day would come from the team of Jason Weik and Jason Baratka at 6:34am with a 40.25 incher. At 7:45am, Ron Trzcinski and Jeff Junek would tally the big fish of the day that measured 43.50 inches that would give the duo the victory. Another dandy muskie measuring 41.50 inches would be landed on Squirrel Lake at 1:36pm by the team of Alez Passow and Jake Olp.
Other teams to score on muskies at the MCTC™ Pike/Round Squirrel event wee: Marcus Malyuk/Ben Bain 34 ½” at 7:12am, Tim Schultz/Todd Dolan 35.25" at 7:30am, Dave Schmitz/Jim See 38.50" at 12:40pm, and Brian Kastner/Brian Emmerich 37.25".
