Temperatures in Bismarck North Dakota today were in the 20's with high winds forecast to hit 30 MPH later today. Highs today are to be in the mid 40's with sunny skies.

The Pros and Observers were dressed for the cold, but wide open throttle in 30 MPH winds and 25 degrees will be a challenge for the Pros choosing to make the long run today.

The ramp iced up immediately this morning despite ice melt and sand applied regularly. Opening ceremonies this morning were a bit delayed as a result.

The weigh in begins at 6 PM tonight. We will be liking to the PWT Video feed for you as soon as we are able to acquire the necessary information.

Day one is complete, and the stage set for the elimination of half the field at the end of tomorrow's fishing. This is a class event, and set up for the crowd to enjoy! The weather looks much better after a cold start, with light winds and temps in the 50's by afternoon.
