We fished Leech lake last weekend. I have tournaments the next 2 weekends. We caught some nice fish. The one above was 27-1/4 and over 7 lbs. We caught 3 over the slot. This weekend (5/30 and 31)we have the Leech Lake Classic. This is a team event and I am fishing with John Gildersleeve. I will post next week on how we did.
I prefished for the Wild 104 tournament and the prefishing went well. We caught some nice fish. The first day of the tournament we caught alot of fish but not the big ones that we were looking for. The second day went better. We finished 40th out of 82 boats. Not what we wanted but there is always next year.

I prefished on Wednessday, Thursday and Friday. We caught some nice 3 to 5 pound fish. I felt good about the tournament since I had 4 spots in pool 4 that I was catching fish. Well as my luck goes on the river all we caught were small fish under 15". We were finnally able to boat 3 legal walleyes for the day. We finished 51. I guess it was better than last.
Minnesota opener is this weekend. You will find me on Ottertail lake at midnight to catch some walleyes. This is the second year in a row on Ottertail, the past 30 + have been on the big pond (Milie Lacs). I have a tournament on ottertail on next Friday and Saturday. I will post next week on how the opener went. Good luck fishing and stay safe.
Here is a picture of the first walleye caught in the new boat.
