I can identify Probst, McClelland, Amenrud and Roach but who are the other three guys?

What year was it?

I think it was in 1987. I think the guy behind Roach is Bob Schubring and the guy behind Amenrud is Jim Schulta. Not positive, but I have this picture at home. I'll have to dig it out. That was a long time ago. Jim still fishes the MWC.

Yes it was the first MWC (which at that time stood for "Manufacturer's Walleye Council") on the Illinois River in 1987. I cropped it, there is one more person in the picture. I'll post the full-sized version in a few minutes.

That shot shows just how little Mr. Roach has changed over the last 20 years.

I would have to agree with you on that Mr. Worrall! Saw Mr. Roach at the East Grand Forks, MN Cabelas store yesterday. He was there promoting his new line of rods that just hit the stores. Always a fun guy to talk to!

Not sure but it knida looks like most of the guys back then were running TUFFY boats. It would be intersting too know how many are still fishing tourny's and running tuffy's. I know for sure that Gary Roach is in Lund's .

There were several teams running Tuffy boats back then. Certainly not all, or even most for that matter. Mr. Roach was already in a Lund back then.

Tuffy was an MWC sponsor, which is why you see so many boat shots in the promo images.

Does anyone have any clue where that pic was taken? I'm just curious.

Looks like Barto landing to me, where they have weigh-in's for the MWC for as long as I can remember.
