    Grumpy is usually the last Sat in July which would mean the 28th. Frontenac is usually the 2nd Sat in August which would mean the 11th. I’ll have to get ahold of Brent at Port Of Call to see which weekend in June. Its usually the 1st weekend which is the same as Pooh Bear but last year he had it on the 2nd weekend [Sat] which works out perfect so people can fish both of them that way. I’ll post here when I find out.
    Thanks, Bill

    Thanks Steve. Yes there are openings. Like Steve said the FLW Walleye Leaque tourney is the same weekend so neither will fill out. Guys who are fishing the leaque circuit will fish their tournament and guys that don’t will fish the LPO tournament. The payouts look great for the LPO this year.
    Thanks, Bill
