All 104 teams left Water Front Park in Winneconne this morning to clear blue skies, sun and light winds. All anglers WalleyeFIRST talked with this morning felt extremely confident in their bite with many expecting to have a very good day from what they saw during prefish.

Most teams felt that it would take a handful of 20+ inch fish and somewhere in the upper teens weight wise to win. Teams also said just about every technique is in play right now, fish have definitely moved down and can be found just about anywhere. It certainly looked from what we saw this morning that trolling was going to be the preferred method today.

Flights are due back at 2, 2:30, and 3 pm.

Louie Apitz and Scott Hausauer took top honors at the MWS in Winneconne today taking home first place trophies and a check for $5100.00. They boated 17.92 pounds on the Upper Lakes of the Lake Winnebago system.

Trolling #5 Shad Raps, Berkley Flicker Shads and the Salmo Hornets were the dominant lures of choice this afternoon by majority of the field fishing Lakes Poygan and Winneconne.

Second went to Jeremy Thull and Matt Bongert of Winneconne who weighed 17.50. Third went to Dan and Jake McGuire of Tomahawk who weighed in 16.28

Conditions were very favorable throughout the day with winds out of the east at 10-15 mph that made for the perfect walleye chop.
