Iowa Teams Dominate Motorguide-MWC Tournament in Dubuque 

Dubuque, IA - One of the toughest bites of the year helped keep the
competition at bay, while consistent two day catches sent Art Lehrman
(Dubuque, IA) and Dale Kruger (Cassville, WI) to the winner's circle of the
Motorguide - Masters Walleye Circuit Tournament. Lehrman and Kruger took
home a check for $ 7, 000.00.

The catch and release tournament was held on the Mississippi River in pools
11, 12 and 13.

Lehrman and Kruger were in fifth place on Saturday weighing just two
walleyes at 6.63 pounds. Sunday's cool weather and all day rain seemed to
help improve the fishing with Lehrman and Kruger weighing more than twice
their weight from Saturday. Their total of 21.03 pounds was enough to win.

Second place was taken by the team of Maury Schmerbach (Dubuque, IA) and
Mike Glynn (Dubuque, IA) with a total of 16.43 pounds. Just four tenths of a
pound behind, was the team of Les Roemig (Amana, IA) and Dave Daugherity
(Manville, IA) with 16.06 pounds.

The Masters Walleye Circuit requires a 15 inch minimum for any fish weighed.
Out of a total of 68 teams, only 29 teams were able to catch and weigh and
eligible fish.

The Iowa DNR used the tournament as an occasion to further support their
stocking efforts by checking all the fish for tags or markings.

The Mississippi Walleye Club received a special conservation check for $ 680
from Wildlife Forever. The money will be used to support their annual kids
day fishing tournament that helps teach kids the sport of fishing and the
importance of aquatic conservation.

The Dubuque Tournament was the sixth stop of the 2001 season. The seventh
and final tournament will be the Ranger Boats-MWC Tournament being held on
Lake Pepin in Minnesota on September 22 & 23.

Wildlife Forever is a national fish and wildlife conservation organization
with projects in all 50 states, Canada and Mexico. The Masters Walleye
Circuit division is a venue to promote and support aquatic conservation
while enjoying the great outdoor recreational pursuit of fishing.

Wildlife Forever's Masters Walleye Circuit is supported by Berkley Trilene,
