    5th:$2,000

    This sounds like a great event. Too bad it is the same weekend as the RCL League event on Big Stone.

    Sorry to hear that, I didn’t check with that one. I just didn’t want to bump head with any local tournament this year.

    Eric,

    The weekend of Sept 11 & 12 looks like the only weekend in September there is not another tourney scheduled in Minnesota. At least not at this point!

    Good Luck.

    Eric,

    Not sure if you have considered this. But it’s a lot easier to obtain a permit from Wisconsin. Have you thought about running your tourney out of Bay City or another WI location?

    I guess we would have to wait and see what the water level is. Im sure it is going to go up, but I tried duck hunting in Bay City this year and I got stuck in my jon boat. I will see what shooter from the bluffs thinks, and I will let you know.

    Just a heads up also that if you have the tournament in September, the DNR will not (or at least they haven’t in the past 3 years) allow a catch and release tournament until the 3rd weekend in September due to possible high water temperatures.
