    Mark Rehberg Memorial “Saugerama”
    October 24, 2015
    Evert’s Resort
    Mississippi River Pool 4
    7:30am to 3:00pm

    This tournament is being held in remembrance of Mark Rehberg who was killed in a deer hunting accident during the 2006 gun deer season. The river was a very special place to Mark, as he would spend as many days as possible fishing there. Mark was also a very avid hunter. He would spend as much time in the woods as possible, whether it was deer hunting, grouse hunting, or pheasant hunting. He was also a great friend to many, many people, and a great father and family person. This tournament was started so that people could gather for a day and spend it fishing, laughing, meeting new people, and to share the many stories that are out there.

    Entry Fee for two person team will be $70. There will be two optional big fish pots. One for walleye and one for sauger. $5 for each entry. Payback will be 80% to top 15% or top 3 places, depending on number of teams. 100% payback on each big fish pot. Weigh-in limit will be 8 SAUGERS with possession limit of 12. Walleyes do NOT count for your total weight. 13” minimum for saugers and 15” for walleyes. Many other prizes will also be available through a drawing after the tournament, so stick around.

    On-line pre-registration is encouraged on http://www.idofishing.com
    Boat number will be determined by the order you sign up on the website. Online registration will open at 6pm on Monday October 12th.

    Top 5 boats from the previous years finish will make up the first 5 boats this year.
    This tournament also qualifies as a Skeeter Real- Money Tourney for up to $3000 bonus from Skeeter and the Skeeter Boat Center! Additional details on the Real-Money program can be viewed at http://www.skeeterboatcenter.com/ .

    Everts will not be charging a launch fee this year. A purchase in the bait shop is always appreciated.

    See you all there!

    It is a scale weight tournament. I can however tell you that over the last 6 or however many years that I’ve fished this. The majority of my fish have went back in the drink. The cold water really helps keep them alive and well. They weigh them right at the end of the dock, so they don’t need to be carried long distances in bags etc….

    If you are putting in at the resort I would be there not much later than 6:30. 6:00 would be safer. The amount of boats will dictate how fast you can get through the line and get the boat in.

    There will be a minimum of two ramps open with traffic directors to speed things along.

    BUT I wouldn’t take a chance on waiting until the last minute. Others might have the same idea. )
