Petenwell is one of the better choices for an early event (April). There has been a lot of discussion in the past about possibly doing a Mississippi river event, but there has also been a lot of opinions about keeping the events closer to the greater amount of anglers (Fox Valley area). Personally, I would welcome either event. Petenwell and the Mississippi offer a lot of challenges to anglers and is a totaly different type of fishing than we get at the other two events. I think that it will remain Petenwell for at least a few more years. eye Lunker Posted 8/6/2007 10:31 AM (#59514 - in reply to #59506) Subject: Re: Petenwell 2008 FLW Schedule Member Posts: 859 Location: Appleton wi I'd like to see a change o location/time of tourny.

It's kind of a "If it aint broke" situation. There is actually a decent showing of locals at Petenwell, and I'm not sure how many there would be on the Mississippi. A lot would depend on time of year, and which pools were involved. I think it would almost have to be on a lower pool like 7,8,9 or 10. They allready have a pool 4 event. This might draw some Iowa and MN anglers in too. That being said, I personally know some boaters who have told me that they flat out do not want to fish the Miss, and some even wish to do away with Pete as well. I just hope they keep one event on this half of the state. Petenwell is the only event that's within an hour of m, with the others being 2-1/2 to 4 hours away. This helps with the ability to get over and prefish some the weekend before.
