Turning Pro (PWT)

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Boogie,
See you in Cornwall on the 10th of May, the Soo PWT tourney on the St. Marys River in September is going to be a great tournament with every technique producing fish. Also it is not a long drive :wink:

Sheldon, I did the St. Marys a couple years ago and it was awesome, pulled spinners and jigged some holes. We came across a mud flat where Ted Takasaki and his amateur where in the water trying to push the boat off this flat. The boys took pictures and posted them, hilarious.

Thanks for all the kind words and support...:D

I am going to keep a daily BLOG while on the road fishing tournaments and plan to do interviews with other pros, shoot some video/photos of the events so I can report back and let everyone enjoy the experience of walleye tournament fishing.
