Bill Buechner caught and released this 50.5" muskie Saturday of the tournament. He and Jason Hamernick took third with 56.5 total points.

  









4th PLACE
Rick and Ray Stawski are no strangers to the MN Muskie Tournaments' winner's circle. They landed three beautiful fish, including this fat 54-incher, to place 4th.

  









5th PLACE
Todd Aronson and Ty Lofrano rounded out 5th place with a 41", a 46", and a gorgeous 51" muskie all in their first day of fishing!

The first annual Lake Vermilion Muskie Tournament was the most successful trophy-size muskie tournament ever. This event registered 45 muskies over 40" in length for the 63 teams participating. The size of the muskies registered was nothing less than incredible - more than 50% of the fish measured 46" or larger and 1 out of 5 was 50" or more! All muskies caught in the tournament were released with a 100% success rate.

The tournament was headquartered out of Bayview Lodge and The Landing Restaurant on July 21st and 22nd. Teams logged 17 hours on the water, fishing 7am to 5pm on Friday and again from 7am to 2pm on Saturday.

This establishes Lake Vermilion as the world's new top trophy muskie fishery. The Vermilion Muskie Tournament is the second of five stops in the Minnesota Muskie Tournament Trail's 2006 schedule. These events are where the area's top muskie anglers will compete for over $200,000 in cash and prizes. Future events include the Mille Lacs Muskie Tournament the weekend of August 19-20th, the Cass/Leech Muskie Tournament the weekend of September 23-24th, and the Championship on Lake Minnetonka the weekend of October 21-22nd.
