Drama as the final three weighed in?

Tom Gatzke caught too many fish today.

It was obvious as soon as Tom Kemos and Ken VanOss weighed in that Mr.Gatzke had taken the win by a wide margin. It was his first win as a PWT Pro. " I don't know from $50,000," he said. " I just know I won. I can't believe it. I won."

Watch for a video interview soon right here on WalleyeFIRST. The wrap up photo album is complete and several videos will follow. Look for the album here, mid page: http://walleye.outdoorsfirst.com/

Welcome TJ to the PWT crew, you handled the initiation well!!

Hey, Tom.

Seems your the only one who can't believe you won. Fine Job my friend. And your other suggestion and recomendation about Electronicguideservice is starting to show dividends as well, thank you for that also.

Thanks everybody! I am still in shock. I'm in awe of the guys floating around in boats next to me in the morning, and I don't know what to say about winning! This is a dream come true for me and I just can't believe that it has happened. I've been idolizing these guys for a long time and to compete against them is an honor. I've learned so much from them and respect all of the hard work they've put in to allow me to have an opportunity like this. WOW!

Thanks again and good fishing everybody!

The press interview at the end of the tournament was interesting, especially the question about the victory being a ' relief'. Great job sir, we will see you at the next PWT.
