Kickerfish is sponsoring the Northern Manitoba Walleye Classic one day two person team tournament Sunday.  The group’s Eric Labaupa says this event takes place at Paint Lake near Thompson and it’ll be a live release tournament.  He explains there’s a set limit on that lake so it’ll be the best six fish under 22 inches or 55 centimeters and bring them in, there’s a weigh in, they record your weight, release them back into the lake again, the best scores win and they’re awarding prizes to the top ten.

Labaupa says the top prize is a boat, motor and trailer valued at ten thousand dollars. He adds the best way to enter is at their website www.kickerfish.ca with an entry fee of three hundred dollars per team.
