SquirrelHunterJay:   There's a lot of prizes beyond the $12000 ....... There was a note that Super 8 would give 2 person rooms for $39 a day including the Pre-Tournament Days for those Registered.

2009 MDNR Survey identified Wamplers Lake as Predator Heavy, but good quantities in all species / first sample showed low on Bluegill, but they came back with electroshock test and found them deep .... the Readears are going strong.

The area is totally fisherman friendly and it will be a good time ><>

I did not see in the rules about this.
We were wondering if when culling can we keep the culled fish to eat ;D

As far as culling goes you can keep up to your limit, but at bucket sealing you must have no more than 8 bluegills and 8 crappie in the bucket, anything more will mean a disqualification. Also after weigh-in you are responsible for your fish.

If you would like you can call, and we will get you your team number. It is not really needed. When you check in on Sat. Jan. 30th at the rules meeting you will be given your team number and a packet with all of the information you need for the tournament. Hope this helps.

Hey Tom! how many spots are left? I may have found a partner to fish with but we haven't met yet and I would hate to missout cause I didn't want to shell out the $120 without a partner.

We are at 45 paid teams as of today, so we are getting close to the 1/3 full mark. Many daily inquires, most of the entries are brand new teams, so those on the sideline better not wait too long.

Partner finally called me back this morning... We're in and paid for.

Off to Cabela's tonight to pick up a flasher, it's a good pre-season ice fishing day.

Great response .............. with an indoor heated weigh-in at the Columbia Central High School Gymnasium it's important to know that you need to lighten up the clothing before going in there.
