June 10, 2008 Pool 2 Walleye Contest Results
I first want to thank all that particapated in our first walleye contest. A special note to the winner with the only fish submitted Jon Jordan. Since he has expressed that his winnings go to ARM, and with no 2nd place fish entered. All winnings from this contested will be submitted to ARM.
It was a tough night out there to say the least. From Mondays pre-fishing to contest the water had come up almost two feet. My boat partner and I (mainly my boat partner) were only able to land a sheephead, Sauger, and a Nice little Flathead. I think we also gave away thirty dollars in plastics and hair jigs to the wing damns.......
We had a great time, and we look forward to doing this again next month. Hope more can come out and join us next time for a nice night on the water........
