  • Walleye Race Tightens at PWT Lake Erie Tournament; Leaders Average 8 Pounds

        Dunkirk, New York....PWT 2-time winner Tommy Skarlis, Walker, Minn.,
    eased into the MinnKota Northeastern Pro-Am tournament lead at Dunkirk, New
    York.  Fishing on Lake Erie¹s deep eastern basin, the In-Fisherman
    Professional Walleye Trail (PWT) contestants used all the trolling tactics
    imaginable to reach walleyes as deep as 80 feet.

        Skarlis, with a PWT victory each of the past two years, and a regular
    Championship contender every year since turning pro, racked up 40.53 pounds
    today, July 10, to go with 41.12 pounds on day one.  His 81.65 total is
    about a pound more than second and third place pro anglers, Dave Kraft,
    Bismarck, ND, and Gary Gray, Oshkosh, Wis.  Both Kraft and Gray are past PWT
    winners, also.  Day one leader Ernie Olson, Foley, Minn., slipped to fourth
    place with 80.66 pounds.  Pro-Am partners could weigh five walleyes daily.

        The leading amateur in the PWT Pro-Am format is Greg Linder, Fredonia,
    NY, just down the street from tournament headquarters.  Day one amateur
    leader Mike Baker, North East, Penn., is in second place.  The catch was
    down slightly from day one when 593 walleyes crossed the stage, compared to
    514 today.

        The weather received much of the blame.  An easterly breeze blew seas up
    to three feet by mid-morning, then died to one-foot swells by mid-afternoon.
    Three hours of rain (2 p.m. to 5 p.m.) did not deter walleye fans, who
    indicated they¹d return Friday for the stage show and weigh-in ceremonies.
    After the final tournament day, pro anglers will reveal what worked, where
    they fished and share their Lake Erie secrets.  The top 40 pros and top 40
    amateurs win nearly $300,000 in cash and merchandise prizes.  Friday¹s
    weigh-in starts at 3 p.m., with the awards ceremonies starting about 5:30
    p.m.

        The Miller Big Fish on day two, worth $1,000, was caught by pro Dave
    Truett, Valparaiso, Ind., and amateur Kevin Gredes, Fairhaven, Mich.  They
    will split the cash award for their 10.72-pounder. The MinnKota Northeastern
    Pro-Am is the fourth event of the season, with remaining tournaments set the
    end of July in Mobridge, South Dakota, and the third week of August in
    Escanaba, Mich.  The Mercury Championship occurs in September in Houghton,
    Mich, where anglers could win a $1,000,000 prize if the Michigan state
    record walleye comes to the scales.  Mercury Marine will pay $250,000 to the
    Angler of the Year if he also wins the Championship.  This is in addition to
    a purse that pays all 50 Championship contenders; the winner nets at least
    $100,000.

        The PWT is an integral element of the In-Fisherman Communications
    Network
    headquartered in Brainerd, Minnesota, and PRIMEDIA, America's leading
    producer of targeted media. PWT sponsors include: Mercury Marine, Lund,
