Well the weather was beautiful, but the fishing slower than it has been.
Once again our winning team was the current points leaders, Pat and Ross of Team Sarcastic with 153 points. They had three species bag with two limits of northern pike and rock bass, plus a couple smallmouth bass.
Second place went to Team TGIF with 150 pts and 4 species, including a limit of nice smallmouth including 18 and 19 inch hogs. Third place went to the team of Don and Ron of Frustrated Inc. with another four species bag.
The smallmouth bass and pike are still biting but moving locations frequently with the winds and weather. Team Frustrated's boat had issues on the way in, luckily Team Patience was right behind them and stopped to lend a hand. We do hope that all is well with the motor and Thanks.. to Steve and Dan for helping out once again. They always set a high standard for sportsmanship and I am sure Don and Ron would do the same for anyone also.
I'll say it again.. This is a great group of anglers and talented also.

Night 10 - Big Lake, Cloquet Minnesota - Results are posted.
Click here for the Fish Scored and current standings.
This night had the worst weather of the year and we had to call it early, near 7:20pm due to high winds, lightning, rain and severe weather nearly on us.
Our winning team and league leaders was Team Sarcastic with 132 points. They had three species bag with two limits of largemouth bass and bluegills.
Second place went to another team familiar with winning, last year's champions, Proven Presentations who also had three species. Third place went to the Old Farts again with another three species bag.
Many teams did not get to all their spots and the weather called us short. But everyone did a great job and kept safety in mind, coming to the landing when needed. Thanks..
Great fishing guys..

The weather started out terrible, lots of rain, wind and temp changes, even some thunder 30 minutes before launch. But it was just raining and a little windy at the start and as the night went on it got a lot better and ended with a great sunset and calm waters. The weather affected the fishing a bit, but the fish were still there and some teams got into them.
Our winning team tonight was Proven Presentation. They did it in a big way with 6 species and two limits. Another great job by Mike G. and Erick F. Congrats!!

Special "Thanks" to Sam Cook and Amanda Odeski for coming out and we are looking forward to reading their article this Sunday in the Duluth News Tribune. Sam rode along with Team Sarcastic and Amanda shared a boat with Team TGIF. They were great sports and are certainly welcome to join us any time.
Very good fishing everyone, even under the difficult conditions we had a surprising number of fish caught. Great job to everyone.

WWA Duluth/St.Louis River Results June 11th
Although teams could also fish Lake Superior, no teams did. There was plenty of nice fish in the bay and the river. The team of Jeff and John Michalski pulled crawlers and leeches behind bottom bouncers in three to five feet of water in Allouez Bay to claim First Place with a four fish limit weighing 18.55 pounds. They weighed in early at 1:30 with their catch. Second Place went to Jason and Jennifer Snyder. They weighed in earlier at 11:00 a.m. with their four fish weighing 16.72 pounds. They also captured Big Fish honors with an 'eye tipping the scales at 8.01 pounds. They also fished the Allouez Bay area in three to five feet of water but trolled shallow running Thundersticks for their catch. Third Place went to Bill McGee and Tracy Nelson with four fish weighing in at 16.41 pounds. They were trolling shallow running Reef Runners in six to eight feet of water in Dokegemah Bay. Congratulations!
Congratulations guys that was an awesome fishing job. Jeff and John Michalski are past and present members of the Minnesota Multispecies Tournament Series and great guys. See ya on the water guys..

The weather was nice but the fishing was tough again. We had only one team break the hundred point mark tonight. They did it with a great bag of five species including nice limits of walleyes and crappies. Great job to Proven Presentation!! Click here for the Fish Scored and current standings.
Our second place team had a nice limit of walleyes and a bonus pike. Good job Frustrated. You guys do this year after year..
Third place went to the Team TGIF with a three species bag of pike, walleye and smallmouth bass.
Thanks to Team Sarcastic for tolling in our one boat that broke down on the water. We hope the Choppers get their motor running better soon. See everyone at Caribou Lake next Monday. Remember the special pike regulations that mean no pike over 24 inches can be scored or hit the livewell.
If you check out the league statistics, our numbers are growing quick and we will be passing a lot of mile marks this year. Very good fishing everyone..

We have now scored over 6000 fish. 6006 fish to date. Click here for the Fish Scored and current standings.
Thanks to all members of MMTS. This is going better and better every year AND everyone is getting better all the time. That shows in the numbers and the size of fish caught, under all types of conditions.
We have a great database and lots of information in it. We already have a few teams (at week four) with as many points scored, as it used to take to win an entire season. Now just 7 years ago, a nightly score of over a hundred points was rare. Now it is common and you need to get closer to two hundred points to win a night. Half of the teams in the first season didn't score that in a season. That's amazing improvement.
This is truly a group of talented anglers. This pool of talent keeps pushing each of us and making us better anglers.
Thanks and Congrats on the league passing it's 6,000th fish caught. Very nice..
