Minnkota Tackle Tournament Trail
The first stop on the 2024 tournament trail took Pete McGinty and Isaac Pauly to Big Stone Lake for the Minnesota Tournament Trail Event. It was a two day event, with Saturday and Sunday being two separate tournaments. The MTT uses the catch, photo, release format, so it allowed anglers to keep multiple fish over 20". On Day 1 the pair put 3 fish in the boat for 18.74 pounds good for 7th place out of a field of 32 boats. Day 2 proved to be a struggle for most of the day but they managed to put 4 fish in the boat for 19.95 pounds, good for 7th place again. A two day total of 7 fish for 38.69 lbs.
The second stop on the 2024 tournament trail took Pete McGinty and Cody Enger back to Big Stone Lake for the Annual Moose Lodge Walleye Tournament. The pair put 3 fish in the boat for 6.78 pounds. The bait of choice was pulling spinner rigs over the abundant weeds with crawlers, leeches and creek chubs.
The third stop on the 2024 tournament trail took Pete McGinty and Cody Enger back to Big Stone Lake for the AIM Pro Walleye Series Event. It was a one day event, again using the catch, photo, release format, so it allowed anglers to keep multiple fish over 20". The pair put 4 fish in the boat for 25.69 pounds good for 3rd place and option pot money, out of a field of 49 boats. They just missed 2nd place by half a pound and less than three pounds separated them from winning the tournament. The bait of choice was pulling spinner rigs over the abundant weeds with crawlers, leeches and creek chubs.
The fourth stop on the 2024 tournament trail took Pete McGinty and Cody Enger to Lac qui Parle Lake for the 44th Annual Lac qui Parle Lake Walleye Tournament. It was a one day event with 53 teams fishing for their best 5 walleyes. The pair put 4 fish in the boat for 6.26 pounds good 15th place. They needed one big bite to get themselves in the top 5, but failed to get it. The pair jigged and rigged creek chubs in the river channel on the north end of the lake.
The fifth stop on the 2024 tournament trail took Pete McGinty, Cody Enger and Chad Strei to Bitter Lake in South Dakota for the Bitter Lake Walleye Challenge. It was a one day event with 60 teams fishing for their best 6 best walleyes. The trio put 2 fish in the boat for 7.23 pounds good for 30th place. They battled strong south winds gusting from 25-40 mph. They jigged creek chubs in flooded trees on the north end of the lake and struggled with holding the boat in position with the strong winds. They also released 4 walleyes over 20" as well as (2) 17.5" walleyes hoping for bigger unders.
