Posts: 122 | The Professional Muskie Angler Circuit™ (Pro-MAC™) hosted the fourth Open Championship of the 2011 season on the Manitowish Chain August 20th and 21st . Although the Manitowish Chain has produced big numbers for the tournament anglers in the past, the weekend event would prove to be a tough bite for the competitors with only nineteen muskies were registered, thirteen muskies on Saturday and six on Sunday. Clear skies and a dead wind would great the competitors on Saturday morning, making for some slow muskie action but when the wind picked up shortly after one, the muskies would respond, especially the big fish. The first muskie of the day would come at 7:55am by Kent Stadler and Doug Bloch with a 36 ½ incher but the duo would be the first team to double up at 2:15pm with a 42 ½ incher. Joe Brezinski and Randy Miller would get put a muskie “on the board” at 8:29am with a dandy 39 ¼ inches. At 10:04am, Ben Bain and Marcus Malyuk would tally a 38 ¼” muskie. Grabbing an eventual eight place finish, Rick McClellan and Ryan Wahlgren scored on their 38 ¾ incher at 1:40pm. The second team to double up for the day would be Brian Krelle and Tim Miller with their first coming at 1:23pm and measuring 42 ½ inches followed up with a hefty 45 ½ incher at 2:34pm giving the team the lead going in to the second day of competition. Landing a 36 ½” muskie at 2:31pm, Scott Gindt and Todd Steinman would capture tenth place. The final team to register two muskie on the day and the big fish honors were Nate Osfar and Corey Huck with fish of 46 inches at 2:15pm and 36 ¼ inches at 3:03pm. The first team to register a muskie on Sunday, and the first team to triple up for the event would be Stadler and Bloch when the scored a 35 ½” muskie at 6:45am. The fourth team of the contest to tally multiple fish would be scored by Todd Luedtke and Dan Buss at 7:25am that measured 40 ½ inches to go along with their previous days catch of 35 ¼ inches at 9:03am. The largest muskie for Sunday would be landed by Cody Hahner and Joe Swiander that measured 45 ¾ inches at 9:38am. At 10:24am, father and son team Gene and Jason Schulz would tally a 41 1/4” muskie giving the team a sixth place finish. Last minute heroics and a 41 ¼ “ muskie earned Osfar and Huck the largest triple of the contest at 11:56am. Other teams who scored on muskies Saturday were: Bob Dekker & Scott Chisholm 36 ¼” at 8:07am, Chad Popp & Al King 35 ½” at 9:28am, and on Sunday Darel Hill & Dana Perez 36” at 10:16am.
