American Tackle Outfitters in Holland runs a local tournament series in June, July, and August. Championship is in Sept. It is on Lake Macatawa and costs are (I think) $25 per boat plus Big Fish Pot if you decide to get in it. We are always looking for boats. We're a pretty good bunch of guys and last year we had less than 25 boats each tournament so your odds are better than most large tournaments. If you're on the West side of the State, give us some serious consideration. I'll even give you the scoop on the lake. If you can still beat us, you earned it on the water. These tourneys can be won with ALL the different ways to catch walleye. Drifting, trolling, and Jigging have all done it at some time. Cranks, Spoons, and live bait. You can use all your options and whatever is your preferred style.

ive never fished walleyes im holland before before but lots of hrs on muskegon lk for walleyes during the night and daytime. sounds like a fun challange and if theres not a salmon tourney going on during this time, mabee i could take ya up on that info and see if i could get into some of them walleye hogs ya got down there. nothing better than a good challange on the water !!!!!!!!! sounds like a lot of fun. tight lines. mike/hammertime e-mail me if ya get a chance at hammertimemrk@yahoo.com

Hey Bob, looking forward to meeting all you guys at tomorrow's meeting!

[SUPERTROLLER]

I copied down your e-mail and I'm going to check for exact dates for the tournaments. I'll e-mail you with all the information.

P.S. I love to eat but never been called a suppertroller before. LOL. I'm still laughing at that one.

Eye catcher,

I'd encourage you to check out the West Michigan Walleye Club if you're anywhere near the Grand Rapids area. This is a great club with 6 tourneys each year that are just for fun. In 2002 we'll fish the Detroit River, Houghton Lake, Lake Erie, Saginaw Bay, Lake Macatawa, and Muskegon Lake. If you're interested, check out the club website at www.wmwc.net

I've learned a tremendous amount from the people in this club.

you can pay at the meeting, and get your DWF stickers when you sign up. also if you have a marine radio, make sure you get your call name listed, and get your e-mail etc listed. mike barkley makes call name cards so you know who is who out on the water or if you need help etc.
