He's a good guy, and has some pretty good finishes in his young career. And congrats to Scott Palubicki, who placed 8th, despite having to fish with tourney killer OH Wade, formerly known as WI Wade. sworrall Posted 6/25/2007 9:38 AM (#57819 - in reply to #57800) Subject: Re: mwc tourney!

Member Posts: 1656 3 teams out of the top ten were not from WI, of those 3 teams they all have 1 touring pro on the team. I don't think the locals got spanked. thumper Posted 6/25/2007 4:20 PM (#57837 - in reply to #57800) Subject: Re: mwc tourney! Member Posts: 744 I agree. In 200 square miles, you have to figure the locals can't be on ALL the fish. Great pics, but sad to see the VHS on many of those fish pictured. I was up there pre-prefishing for the FLW and also caught some, one was pretty advanced. Interesting how it seems to affect the larger fish (is it a female thing?) I had 3 over 20" Sunday and all three had it, but none under 20" did. Dave S guest Posted 6/25/2007 8:40 PM (#57846 - in reply to #57800) Subject: RE: mwc tourney! Thumper alittle blood running down the side of the fish does not mean it has VHS. What it does mean is poor fish handling! I was at sundays weight in and if there wa alot of fish coming in with VHS there would have been talk and there wasnt sworrall Posted 6/25/2007 8:59 PM (#57848 - in reply to #57846) Subject: RE: mwc tourney! Location: Rhinelander I don't think so, I was there and the anglers were doing everything they could to keep those fish alive and healthy. What it actually means is the fish have another disease out on the Bay that has shown that symptom for years, especially on the larger fish. I'm pretty sure the lesions you see are not VHS.
