North American Ice Fishing Circuit (NAIFC) Qualifying Tournament is coming to Wissota January 22-24, 2010.
My thoughts are Wissota panfish in late January can be a bit challanging. Kinda like a fall walleye tournament with water temps in the mid to high 70’s.

January 22-24, 2010 on Lake Wissota The Chippewa Falls Chamber is excited to bring a professional ice fishing tournament and circuit to Chippewa Falls that you can join. Anglers – Pro’s and Amateurs, test your skills in a fun day of competition. Get a partner, fish a qualifying event, and get started in competitive ice fishing. There is a Saturday pro-am session to help new competitors learn some of the techniques that the more seasoned pros are using. Look for more information as it is available. Mark your calendars and we will see you there! For more information on the event or to get involved call Allyson at 723-0331
I hope this does not keep the UCP event from getting a tournament permit 3 weeks later
