Minnesota Muskie Trail

After a ton of thought and back and forth we have made the decision that we are not going to have another tournament this summer for the MMT. It is a tough decision but as many of you know Ashley and I have a lot of irons in the fire. We have two girls and our family is at the busiest point in our lives that we will be. Time is a valuable thing in life and you learn that the older you get! The toughest part was trying to find a weekend that would fit our schedule and the anglers and we could not find one that would work. Theres a lot of time and commitment from you the anglers that goes into these tournaments and we did not want to put this on unless we could fully commit and do it right for you.

With that being said we are super greatful for everyone that joined us along the way whether it was fishing the tournament, helping us run the tourney or just following along! We may not have had hundreds of teams or huge crowds at weigh-ins but we are proud to say that we paid out 110% of the money to the anglers!! This was not a money grab it was tourney for the angler by the angler. We are proud that new friendships were made and old ones strengthened! We’re proud that we got youth involved in the outdoors! We were proud of all the anglers helping us with that!

Huge shoutout to Trapper's Landing Lodge on Leech Lake for hosting us over the years!! It was greatly appreciated! Huge shoutout to all our sponsors and everything everyone helped us out with!

If anyone is interested in taking the MMT over you can get ahold of me and we can chat about it. It will be zero cost to take it over and we can go over any questions or concerns!

Thank you
John and Ashley

Another awesome tourney this year!! Day 1 we were faced with some tougher weather and wind changes but it had the fish going!

Day 2 was a little post frontal and some calm sunny weather which shut the bite down a bit compared to day one.

After everything was said and done Tim Dicks and Brett Frandrup took home the champions trophies!

Huge shoutout to all of our sponsors for providing the top of the line giveaways and the ability to raise enough money to give away more lifetime licenses to kids!!!

Huge shoutout to Trapper's Landing Lodge on Leech Lake for hosting us again this year!

We can’t wait for next year!
