Thanks for the post. Do you know that Miss Minnesota in the link? One of my buddies dated her in High School, wonder if he knows where she is now?

Hey Blue Fleck,

Thanks for your help spreading the word. I wanted an unusual fundraiser to draw in people and interest, and as an avid angler, avid but not always good, fishing seemed like a good one.

The plan is to do this every year, but in the future, we will use it to start a fishing school/tackle lending program for kids in the Tristate Area. Next year, instead of an auction, it will likely be a raffle.

Just updated the site to include the kids trees. In all we have the adult Fishing tree, the boys fishing tree, the girls fishing tree, a walley kit with tons of lures & walleye supplies & videos, the bass kit with lures, plastics, videos, the big fish wreath with muskie & pike lures, the autographed pro kit with signature items from Roland, Woo, Bill Dance, Mary DiV, Charlie Moore, Ron Schara, Mark Raveling & more, and the Babe Winkleman Kit with tons of Babe’s fishing gear.

To see the update go to http://www.thefishingtree.com web page

Thanks again. I hope to see several of you at the event. Look me up and I might buy you a drink for coming.

Hi Brent,

I have one correction, I actually had the wrong Miss Minnesota. I had the Miss Minnesota National Miss listed (bad info from a local contact). It will actually be the 2005 Miss Minnesota Karyn Stordahl at the auction. The website has been updated to show the correction.
