Congrats to all that caught fish! :)
There were two muskies over 34 inches registered at the WMT's Monona Lake tournament Saturday, May 10th. The first muskie of the event would be measured at 8:15am by the team of Doug Dollhopf and Gary Tutaj that scored 38 1/2 inches. The second and final muskie of the day would be captured by Cheryl Giffen and Matt Thatcher at 1:28pm and measuring in at 37 3/4 inches. Both teams were able to catch their muskies in very shallow water with one team using a small jerk bait and the other team using a bass sized spinner bait. The water temps were low, starting out at 51 degrees and warming up to 53 by the end of the tourney.
