As The Walleye Capital of the World, we have some distinct advantages. First off, there is always the chance to catch numbers of walleyes. For this tournament, there are advantages for catching numbers of fish as every fish is an entry and many of the prizes are based on place. The other advantage is LOW is known as a trophy fish haven for walleyes, pike and perch. The other way to win is having the largest fish.
What enables this tournament to happen from all across the USA ice belt is the FishDonkey app. If you haven’t used it, the app is easy to use. In a nutshell, when you are in the app, you take a picture on a measuring board and a second image as a hero shot. The app will automatically measure and allocate a measurement to the fish. Simple and easy.
