| Brown and Hannasch Win Second Day of WWA Team Challenge Big Stone Event |
ORTONVILLE, MN - Tony Brown and Curt Hannasch took the lessons they learned from the first day event to win the second day of the World Walleye Association Team Challenge tournament held on Big Stone Lake May 2, 2004. This was a combined South Dakota/Minnesota Team Challenge event.
Tony Brown and Curt Hannasch trolled #5 Shad Raps on leadcore near the Hartford Beach area in 13-15 ft of water to catch their winning weight of 12.25-pounds.
Tony said "The wind pushed the mudline into the shore we were fishing and that helped us today." Brown and Hannasch are from the South Dakota Team Challenge division.
Day one winners Dusty Wilkens and Wes Wilkens placed second on day two with a weight of 10.35-pounds. The Wilkens were fishing the same spot as day one on the Minnesota side pitching jigs to shallow rocks. They also caught the big fish of the day, a 5.44-pounder. "We caught the big fish on the third cast of the day." Dusty said.
Donald Fellbaum and Troy Fellbaum place third with a weight of 8.42-pounds.
"This makes up for our one fish yesterday." Troy said. The Fellbaum's were trolling #5 Shad Raps behind planer boards on the far North end of the lake.
