Location: Rhinelander | Sorry to disappoint, Sunshine. We unfortunately do not have unlimited resources when it comes to capable coverage folks, and had three of our coverage teams elsewhere. I was headed to the final weigh in on the way back from the Lorain AIM if this was a Sat/Sun event.
We hit the ones we can and enjoy covering the events, but 65 events in the field this year will limit how many MWC events we can attend. |

Location: Waukesha Wisconsin | I understand Steve. I know of a retired school teacher/tournament fisher that is looking for a new adventure and employment. If you ever expand let me know.
Your game, your ball, your rules. My guess is that your larger readership is centrally located in the area where the MWC was being held. And several of your longtime members were fishing this event. They and their families would have enjoyed the coverage. But I also understand that hard business decisions need to be made and that you and outdoorfirst have a working relationship with AIM. For what it's worth, I also enjoy the Facebook coverage on the bass side. |

Location: La Crescent, MN | The core of our walleye audience is in the Fox River Valley. We know that. The area from Milwaukee to Green Bay has the highest concentration of hard-core walleye anglers anywhere. I view it as the absolute heart of walleye fishing.
We will always cover any impactful event in that area - if we have the resources at the time. Our priority to covering walleye events has always been: Pro level events -> anything in Fox Valley area (MWS, Merc, Otter Street etc) -> MWC -> anything else we can squeeze in. This year we were able to get to Merc Nats, which we make a priority every year, and have committed to being at all MWS events.
As an organization we will reporting on the ground from over 60 events this year - more that any other organization in fishing. Beginning in 2010-11 we added major resources to BASS - we are at every BASS Elite Series event - and have committed to the PMTT on the muskie side of things.
We are always looking for a person to handle overflow tournament reporting. We are also looking for a stats specialist. This person would be responsible for compiling our walleye, muskie and bass tournament data, must be fluent in Excel, have high attention to detail and be a tournament fishing junkie. Anyone interested can send inquiries to [email protected].

| I think Dennis would be an awesome walleye tourney reporter. He's got my support. |
