FYI.

Update on the number of early bird teams signed up in the first four days of registration:

54 in the Central, about 30 fishing the Challenge (4th Tourney)
7 in the newly formed East Division, and 2 for the Challenge.

I'm guessing close to 100 will enter before the Jan. 30 deadline, which could mean a team wanting to fish the Illinois River and Winnebago would have the best chance of getting in by signing up for all three in the Central Division.

I am impressed with the number of early entries and teams fishing the Challenge, along with the interest out East. Those of you out East will like the competition, purses, and exposure now available as the Cabela's bus rolls into town.

With this years new format and money for the top five teams in each Division and the Challenge, last years Team of the Year, Glenn and Carol Chenier, would have won over $33,000, without winning a tournament!!

Fish Hard,

Where are all the guys from the east?

I think more are coming and many that will only fish a couple of events. There has been a lot of talk out here about a pro circuit. I only hope they take advantage of the opportunity. Oh,I have entry forms for those that may need one. Let me know and I will mail it to you so you can look it over.

Entry Forms can be printed off the MWC website at

www.masterswalleyecircuit.com

I have them for those who may not have a printer and would like a hard copy.

Make that 55 in the central Moo & Big Bird sent the entry in on Friday.
Come on MARCHHHHHHHHHH

JB,
WOW-$33,000 for Team of the Year sure would have been great! That would cover cost of a new boat or a new truck, big screen TV or a vacation some place WARM. You can imagine how expensive things get coming from the same household income. I'm still waiting for that big cooperate sponsor. Anyway the new format will be exciting! Glenn's out ice fishing right now so I'll let him know how much we could have won if it where the new format.
See everyone in Spring Valley
