Ha Ha! That's awesome!!!! Lets see how those pros do in the dog days of summer and not that slam fest of a spring bite. The weather knocks them off from time to time in the spring but this will be a whole new ballgame. Too bad every one of them will troll and not fish, but oh well. They'll still have to go through a ton of Steelies to get the walleyes! I love it!

Critter Gitter,

I fished 2 tournies last year out of Lorain about that time. Day one winning weight was 5 fish/48 pounds. Day 2 winning weight was 5 fish 45 pounds.

I'll go out on a limb and say right now (this is assuming near normal weather conditions) that it will take a 3-day weight of 130 to 140 pounds to win. 100 pounds won't be in the top ten. The entire lake is an unbelievable fishery, but the right tactics have to be used.
