Who out there fishes this?? I seen some names i recognized(mangus,watts,hepler,snyder) just wondering your take on it?? Looks like a great circuit. Looking to figure out my schedules this year.-skeeterman-
Its one of the best. But you had better sign up for them all by the deadline because it fills up right away every year.
There's a reason the waiting list is so long!
Phil, One of my buddies from Fort Wayne fishes it and he really likes it. They had their classic up here on Kent a couple years ago and he got to come up and fish it, the Tucker brothers won with over 22 lbs. and took home over $10,000. It is limited to 75 boats so as said earlier you better sign up on the day that they start accepting entries.
This is one of the best tournament curcuits here in michigan. Like Bender mentioned it is limited to 75 boats. They have an open house on registration day. I recommend calling down to lake drive for all of the information.
Last year at the classic
first $12,000
second over $2,000
third $1,900
fouth $1,400
I think they payed out six spots but I cant remember
