George Wahl Memorial Muskie Tournament Saturday Sept 29

[The dock is IN]

The Tournament for stocking Metro waters in honor of the late George Wahl is Saturday September 29. Tournament hours are 7 AM to 4 PM, and most metro muskie waters are included. An awards program and pork chop feed at Thorne Brothers will follow at 6 PM. Proceeds of last years tournament bought yearling muskies, pit and floy tags for a stocking study in Lakes Minnetonka, White Bear and Bald Eagle Lake. Participating in this tournament is an important way to continue to improve the Twin Cities area fishery. Entry fee is $50 per person and all proceeds of the Tournament are used for improving Metro waters.

You can register for the tournament at:

Thorne Bros. in Blaine

Joe's Sporting Goods in St. Paul

Blue Ribbon Bait in Oakdale

through September 28

(the pork chops are so tender it is like eating cookies)

Hope they catch more fish than the PMTT did...

I think the feed begins at 5 PM and the awards at 6 PM, but my sheet says 6 PM for both so that's what I put down. Same fabulous pork chop vendor as last year. I think it will be bluebird, slightly warming weather, but I've noticed water temps are slowly dropping, probably due to the cool evenings. Most people are finding active fish.

( RK- I was on the water in Northern MN during the PMTT event. Terrible conditions with my boat pelted by hail. We saw few fish but did manage to boat more than the entire PMTT field.)
