Location: Elko - Lake Vermilion | Guys, It's a Three day Tourney... That's 24 hrs. of pounding the water by probably some of the BEST Muskie Fishermen in America. There will be quite a few teams that WILL figure it out.... Always happens... I believe that any fish that is over 30" counts
A local team that fishes it regularly will win it.
3 days... of brutal pounding,...… Vermilion will give in.
I'm guessing 44 fish with the biggest at 53.5 |

| There's an angler earlier this year won a over 100 boat walleye tournament this spring,,then won a big bass tournament after that,,all on vermilion,,,now he's fishing for his favorite fish muskie on vermilion.,,any side bets??? If theres 50 teams true odds would be 49-1,,Ill put up $100 I 'll give 44 to one in a MUST win first place wager. Or adjust to the number of final teams |

| All I know is that it’s breaking my heart not to fish it, like it was all this summer missing the PMTT. But the first of two new knees is next month with the second in December (God Willing). I wish you all good luck out there, and hope to be ready to rejoin you next spring! |

| Kap I should have said take
I pick my guy you get the rest of the field,,, my guys "team" has to win even if they finish second I lose.,,instead of true odds i 'll concede a house edge by five pts depending on number of teams
Example- 77 teams I get 72-1 odds I'm giving up true odds for choosing my team.
Unless there's an official handicapping line on this and "favorite" the odds are against me.

Location: Elko - Lake Vermilion | Hooker, I'm not sure but.... did MN. just pass legal Marijuana ? because unless your guys name is Jesus and the Holy Spirt you are making crazy odds.
Good luck to your team.

Location: Watertown, MN | Jerome, I know who hooker is thhking off, but lot of great sticks in field and it will be an interesting watch. But V can be fickle is September and know it will depend on weather and who can dial the pattern in. But there will be fish caught!! Eye opening or supporting Kirby doom and gloom. To wide open for me!

| Look back to the last big event on LSC. I wouldn’t bet against Berman or Hulbert on a lake they make their living on, but Berman took the purse and Hulbert was back in pack. IMHO, those are two of the best on anybody’s water, and your local heroes actually have terrible odds against them winning. Or, look back at two of my other favorite guys to bet on winning their local water, Grant and Thomas in Kentucky. Sure they won a great and well deserved trophy last year, but I saw them come up with zippedeedoodah many other years when clear thinkers had them the favorite. This ain’t horse racing fellas, it’s not predictable! Gee, look at how good I am, and I never win (ha, ha, ha.) Don’t count your money just yet!! |

I had to back out.... still healing from open Heart surgery... Feel like Shnit some days …... a big bad bummer for sure.

Location: Lake Vermilion | I'll say 3 fish (41, 43, 45) will win it and could come from anywhere. |

| I’d take the over as well , I’d say 27 total fish, winners get 4 ...Fish are being caught pre-fishing... never understood competitors catching 50’s a couple days before tournament, highly unlikely those fish eat again  |

Who is to say that fish would eat days later during tournament hours?I caught one friday at cave run in a spot i probably wasnt going to fish,only to catch a different fish Saturday during the tournament. Just go fishing would be my advice. |

Location: Elko - Lake Vermilion | I also don't understand why people prefishing want to Catch fish....Pull the bait away from the fish guys... Don't burn your Money.
Explore areas you think the fish may be.... Locate the fish... Go back on said located fish.
Although, I have seen fish caught and 2-3 days later they are caught again usually near the same spots.
Stupid Fish !

If there's 77 teams the true odds are 76-1 that's incorrect???
If it was a pizza eating contest then "yes" you'd adjust the odds if I was in it. |
