| Here's a few interesting things. Tom Gatzke has afriend who will be there to talk about Financial Planning and other aspects of the pro angler side of the game. Tom's success has not only been in fishing, but in working to make the entire package come together. Make sure to stop and talk to Financial Design Group while you are there.
Also, Mercury Marine sent me a trolling motor again as a door prize. It's a nice transome mount unit like last year.
Larry & Jan's has also donated a weekend for two, including boat & motor, to his resort in Fremont.
Hoping a few more things show up and also hope to see you there. |

Location: Fremont, Wisconsin | Well guys, just got back from the bridge bar and setting up the Mercury tents for saturdays affair. There will be closed circuit TV running throughout the bar for all the seminars. This will be a very good chance to rub elbows with our fellow fishermen, get a chance to get out of the house, and maybe learn something. Remember, ITS FREE!! See you all there.

Location: Neenah, WI | I had a great time there yesterday. Saw some old friends and made a couple of new ones. I thought the fishing presentations were done well. All in all it's a nice setup by the river. I'll be there next year. Great Job!!!! |

| Very nice turnout, saw some great sticks and lots of people there wanting to learn equiped with note pads and video cameras. Doc, thanks a bunch. KK, thanks. I'll get the Power Point up soon so everyone can see the state of the lake but more importantly the Invasives, we've got a gold mine that needs to be protected!
Good luck
Tyee |

Location: Darboy USA | My brother and I were there as well, all I can say is Doc keeps outdoing himself! Excellent event yesterday, from the speakers, location, fellow anglers, and of course the food and drinks were top notch. Glad I didn't miss it.
I also thought all the speakers were great and especially liked the panel discussion as well, learned quite a few new tricks to use this spring and summer
Can't wait until next year to see what Doc comes up with to top this year's event. |

| Great turnout! Congrats Doc. I had a great time Saturday. Troy, Tom,Doc, KK, and Axl gave really good info on the system, and when, how, and where to fish it. Was good to see old friends after the winter, and to meet some new friends. The only thing that would have made the day better was if the ice was going out as we watched! Thanks to all for the nice compliments on my boat. And I was glad to show anyone who was interested, the Folbe Rod Holders. We need to get a retailer in the Fox Valley for these. WalleyeX and I will be working on that. |

| Yes, thanks to everyone who helped and all those who showed up. We are already digesting the event and making notes so as to improve Ice Breaker 3. The closed curcuit TV was great! Thanks to my friend Kevin Wright at Phoenix Sound ( http://www.phoenixav.com ) for setting it up and taking the time the night before to fix the TV sets and run the proper wire at his expense. I'd also like to call out Troy Peterson, our own Mr. Bluegill, and give him a GIANT thank you for the camera, mic's, audio/video set up with computer and PA. First class young man, first class!!!
Denny, you rock!! Czar of set up and take down and the perfect right hand man. Although we need to find a sponsor for tent duty. WAY too old for that ship any more. I was beat like a puppy Friday night after set up. Thank God the back spasms didn't start until after the event and there was help , including my wife, to take them down Saturday. Good job and looking forward to Ice Breaker 3. |
