Anglers Insight Marketing LLC™ (AIM) announced today that its Pro-Am tournament
series will kick off the season with a return to Saginaw Bay.
Plymouth, WI – May 10, 2010
Anglers Insight Marketing, LLC™ (AIM) will conduct a series of four Pro-Am walleye fishing tournaments in 2010. The AIM Pro Walleye Series™ will host fields of the top walleye fishing Pro Anglers at each tournament. Each day, the Pro Anglers are paired with a different Co-angler and the two compete as a team for the maximum daily weight of walleyes.
AIM is pleased to announce that the May 2010 tournament will again be hosted by Bay City, Michigan. This AIM Pro Walleye Series™ event will be held May 20 – 22, 2010. The Bay City Convention and Visitor’s Bureau, welcomes the AIM Pro Walleye Series™ to the Saginaw Bay area.
Saginaw Bay is a diverse fishery offering a bountiful walleye population. AIM Pros will have the options of structure fishing and open water trolling over hundreds of square miles of Lake Huron and the Saginaw River. The Bay City area will be highlighted as a prime destination for trophy walleyes and multi-species angling.
The 2009 AIM Pro Walleye Series™ tournament was won by Iowa-based Pro Angler Tommy Skarlis. Skarlis came from behind in a dramatic surge on the final day of the event to tally a total of 100.93 pounds of Saginaw walleyes. Skarlis used a variety of tactics including open water trolling of spinner harnesses with nightcrawlers along with jigging in the river with artificial baits.
All AIM Pro Walleye Series™ tournaments are three day events. The full field of boats (Pro Anglers and Co-anglers) will fish the first two days. The Professional provides the boat and all the fishing tackle and bait for the day. Each day the Co-angler will be paired with a different Pro Angler and have the opportunity to learn “secret” techniques. The top 50% of the Pro Anglers – based on cumulative weight over the first two days – will fish the third day of the tournament. These Pros will be paired with Co-anglers selected by random drawing at the pre-event Rules Meeting. At this date a few Co-angler entries spots are still available, and the cost is only $250.
