The Tournament Board would like to know what bodies of water people would like to see for the upcoming year. We plan to start working on the schedule Monday Oct. 17th so please post your ideas ASAP.

Would like to fish coralville reservoir. Lake is 4ft low until around 2nd week of May on a normal year for flood control. So it would be best end of May or October. Also wouldn't mind fishing Macbride again, late April or early May. If we can't do one of those two I'd like to fish Clear in the spring instead of Storm. Wouldn't mind fishing different pools on the river, maybe fish a May tournament when fish are active on the wing dams.

Thanks for the input Taylor. A lot of options for a May tournament. Does everyone still want to go back to Pool 4 in June again? Should we look for another out of state location at that time? Like a tournament on the river out of a Wisconsin location that would be closer to home?

Whatever you guys decide will be great. I wouldn't mind trying different pools on the Mississippi or at least not two on the same pool. I really like the six tournament format. Keep up the good work guys.
