    What a great event it was, all the anglers managed to raise over $82,000 for Teen Challenge center in Brainerd. My self and my team member took biggest fish in the Walleye division and 4th place in the Walleye division over all. As well as 11th in the pan fish division.
    I could not think of a better event to get together for we had a great turn out with over 85 boats.

    I want to thank everyone at Teen Challenge and all the sponsors of the event. You all did a great job putting it together and I plan on doing it again next year and hopefully raising more money for such a great cause.

    God Bless and Good Fishing
