The first Tuesday Nite Walleye Tourney of 2009 suffered a setback when wind forced organizers to postpone the opener. Tim Hobbs, president of the Southern Minnesota Walleye Association, said there was no way they were going to send boats out on Lake Elysian Tuesday.
"By the sound of it, they wouldn't have done too well," Hobbs said of the bite. He said the wind was just too much for the few who ventured out.
The first tournament has been pushed back to Tuesday, May 26. I've reflected the change on the schedule on the left under my profile.
Braggin'-sized catches
Before the 2009 walleye opener, we at The Free Press asked our readers to send us pictures of their catches from the weekend. While the experiment didn't go exactly how we'd hoped, we did get a few pictures, which John Cross has compiled into a photo gallery. It would be nice if we could get more pictures from our readers throughout the summer, so I'm soliciting your help once again. Send us your photos, and we'll make sure to add them to our "Braggin'-sized catches" gallery on the Web.
