ROOSTER TAIL WALLEYE TOURNAMENT:
We had 50 teams registered for the 2018 walleye tournament which a 28.90 pound bag boasted by Clayton Folden and Devin Dorval, led them to the win. They took home the $5,000.00 first place prize, but hot on their heels was Cody Pardon and Josh Gladback who brought in another giant bag consisting of 28.56 pounds of Lake Sakakawea gold. 2nd place payed out $3,500.00. Third place went to Bill Swartout and Paul Allen for a prize of $2,500.00 after they brought in 27.84 pounds. Grant Miller and Tyson Decker brought 26.18 pounds to the scales to secure the $1,500.00 fourth place check. To round out the top five was 24.38 #'s caught by Justin Brandt and Mike Brandt. They were able to hold off Selzer and Carter by a total of 0.54#'s to secure the final paid spot of $500.00.
The biggest walleye of the tournament was caught by a team that only brought the one walleye to the scale, and it was the right one!! This fish weighed in at 8.98 pounds which sealed up the $940.00 prize. Congratulations to the Sandvold's on the catch!
Congratulations to all who fished!! No one disappointed at all! We cannot wait to get this tournament filled for the 2019 event. Handing out that $10,000.00 check is our goal and we hope to get all your help in getting there!
