They televise that tournament with 35 boats but not Spring Valley with 154 boats. Come On.

Fishing for sardines dont make for good TV.

Guess those Midwest guys were too scared to come fish our waters Dave! Love it how the ones that complain are usually the ones that only fish their home waters. Thanks to the couple out of state teams that did make it, they did a fantastic job... Thanks again for coming out west MWC!

Pretty sure it has more to deal with the 900+ miles most MWC anglers would have to travel to get there...

Actually I think it has more to do with getting exposure out west. If they wanted to film "Big" fish they would have filmed Erie. I commend the MWC for coming out west for a tourny. If I'm not mistaken, Their home base is 900+ miles away? I actually know of 5-6 teams that have fished the MWC in different states yet only a couple out of state teams come out west? I for one hope they come out here more often. Lakes in Kansas, Wyoming and Nebraska have really good walleye in them. I don't know the reason one would complain about tv coverage of a walleye tournament but oh well. If you wanna be on tv then you should go to a tournament that is televised.

4.9lbs I think was the biggest fish at Pueblo. Talk about weighing sardines, it will be interesting at Mille with the new slot. 50 teams will seperated by .05lbs. Hope the scale goes down to thousands or there will be lots of ties.

TV or not, I hope they come back. I forgot how much fun a Pueblo tournament can be when there isn't a 90 minute boat ramp wait. We need to do something about that speed limit though!
