2010 Mark Rehberg Memorial “Saugerama”

Mark Rehberg Memorial “Saugerama”

October 16, 2010
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 $50. 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. 15” minimum for both saugers and walleyes. There will be drawings for teams placing out of the money for a custom made rod by R&R Rods. 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 and will qualify to win a new custom made rod for doing so! You must pre-register on-line and fish the tournament to qualify. Cash only please.
