RAMGE AND LITERSKI WIN 1ST DAY WI/UP TEAM CHALLENGE ON WINNEBAGO
OSHKOSH- Mark Ramge and Cary Literski won the first of back-to-back one-day
tournaments in the World Walleye Association WI/UP Team Challenge division
held on Saturday, June 5 2004.
After more than a month since the last WI/UP Team Challenge event, all the
anglers were more than ready to get back at it and Ramge and Literski proved
so by catching an impressive 22.28-pound, five fish limit which topped the
field of fifty-one teams and won the team $2,010.
Pat Schuette and Mark Piper took second place with a five fish limit
weighing 19.47-pounds
John Geiger and Dale Howard placed third with a five fish limit weighing
18.73-pounds.
Jimmy Hughes and Tim Winchester caught the big fish of the tournament, which
weighed 6.89-pounds putting them in tenth place.
Since many of the anglers fishing in this event are going to be fishing the
next of the back to back events on Sunday, June 6th, many of the top
finishing anglers were very tight lipped about techniques and locations, but
of those that did talk it seemed clear that fish are plentiful throughout
the system and just about any technique or location you tried would produce
fish. The question was would they be the right fish.
For Mark Ramge and Cary Literski they definitely had the right fish.
