Grand Slam Walleye

[Northlander]

Tom I didnt move and didnt get one in the mail. Dont worry I took it upon myself to get some for folks who couldnt get them locally and I grabbed a few for myself and Randy.

[Tosty]

Hey Tom

[SKIPPERS KID]

Well we hope to see ya,...Chris You and your Dad Tom are a first class team and it would not be the same with out you guy;s here. But I bet some guy's would like you to stay home. But any way Chris have a great day and I will call you I think we are coming down to fish steelhead and browns close to you on Tuesday the 4-7-09 so I will call be-for we head down

[Northlander]

I still havent gotten my Grand Slam Flyer in the mail Tom!

Good thing I took things into my own hands and went to Marine General and got one.

Im just saying this because I think you may want to make sure that everyone who fished it in the past actually got one in the mail.

[FinsandFeathers]

I'd like to personally thank Drew for getting a flyer to my partner -- Thank's buddy!! - so now that that's over with!!! I'm now locked in to fishing it and having a GREAT time and out of all the tourny's I've fished this is by far the hardest to learn about or donate my $$$ to. Sorry about the rant.. I spend the little time I have on this site on the Duluth area because of the quality of the sticks and knowledge of our craft. Lets attempt to make that quality go further into promoting or sport, the area and the people alittle easier...

Thank's and cant wait to finally meet and see you all...

The Grand Slam will be held as far as I know. Im still up in the air but I know I will wind up in.

Tom how many boats ya got so far? When will the site be updated?

[WiscoKid]

Tosty - whats going on man.....you talk with Kevin yet? Sounds like the wife might let him out. What weekend are you coming up...the earlier or later one(June)? Can't wait to get on the water.

[ripstick]

Anybody looking for entry forms as of this am fishermans corner still dont have any. Oh well.

[FinsandFeathers]

Northlander, could you let all of us in on whats up... please..Tom is evidently to busy at this point. No flyers, no web site.

[Northlander]

I dont know any more than you guys do and what I told you on the phone. It is what it is. No sense in getting to crazy about it guys.

Im sure the Grand Slam will be held and I will be there, just found out yesterday, and lets hope we get good weather this year.

Its going to be a great year for the walleyes on the river. Seeing lots of them out in the big lake still so they all arent in the river yet.

See you guys on the 15th at Mr. D's for the rules meeting.

[Tosty]

Hey Aric! I just talked to Kevin the other day. Were in for the first tournament. Tom is coming up on Wednesday and I will be flying in from Florida on Friday. I have a warrenty job on a boat down south for a couple of weeks. Give Kevin a call and find out whats going on.

Tom,

looking for a definite yes that the tournament is taking place this year. With the HSOforum down and some of the registration confusion, I know of at least 2 teams that are holding there money until they know for sure that the tournament is taking place. thanks

[FinsandFeathers]

Hawgeye, what did you get for a boat? I seen your trying to sell a brake controller that you didnt need.

[hawgeye]

I do agree 100%. Things wont get better this way.

Just call the number on the flyer. Looks like Tom is MIA from here. If you need his # call or e-mail me.

[FishingRealtor]

I just got off the phone with Phister. He told me that the tourney is still on. Also, he said that 30+ boats are signed up. Normally, about 20 teams sign up the night before the tourney. It looks like we'll have a full field!

Drew

[SKIPPERS KID]

the Grand slam is may 16th and 17th and June 6th and 7th. fishermans corner has 20 plus flyers on they counter. So if most ask if they can not see them they will get pointed in the wright direction. I do know we are ahead of last year and the way the phone has been ringing this last week we should get it filled up the next 2 weeks we just have room for 18 boat's so the ones that have sent in "are in" and after it is full that is it no more than the first 50 Boats.

I hope you all have a great opener the river should be great the temps today where 45 to 47 degrease and for walleys that are spawning they like 42 to 46 degrease so we are there now and come opener and the grand slam they will be more spread out. This will make for great fishing for every one. It will be fun to fish all over the river and harbor this year than just up river. ""Well good luck guys"" I do wish every one good luck. and I will post back from time to time and will let you all know when we get to 50 Boats.

[Northlander]

Ya Tom lets hope we get some nice weather and we can actually fish the harbor areas. Cant wait its getting closer.

[contrail]

Hey Tom. I'm looking for an entry form as well. Can you get one out to me via mail or email.

Thanks.

Contrail, give Northlander an e-mail, its in his sig. thats the best way to get the info! Hope that we see ya at the rules meeting...I cant wait!!

[contrail]

Fins and Feathers -

Will do - thanks.

[Islandlaker]

Hey guys how does this tournement work? I tried going to the HSOforum but it is completley blank. Do you have to fish both weekends, like the total weight of both weekends?

[Northlander]

Its a 2 day event and you weigh your best 4 walleyes each day. $115 a piece so $230 a boat. Fishermans Corners and Marine General have flyers. If not I can mail you one.
