June 4th Minnesota Teen Challenge 2011 Fishing Challenge on Gull Lake

The 2011 3rd Annual Minnesota Teen Challenge Fishing Challenge will take place on Gull Lake, Brainerd MN on Saturday June 4th. (Click link for details)

Minnesota Teen Challenge Fishing Challenge is basically a multispecies fishing tournament fundraiser for Minnesota Teen Challenge. Minnesota Teen Challenge is a Christian gospel based drug and alcohol rehabilitation program that really changes lives. I've helped with Minnesota Teen Challenge in the past and I encourage fisherman from all over the Midwest to consider getting involved in this fundraiser. I personally give financial support to Minnesota Teen Challenge and plan on helping sponsor a team this year. I would consider fishing it myself, but once again the date is in conflict with one of my bass club tournaments.

I think last year Al Lindner won the Bass and Walleye divisions. Sheesh!

Check Out this PDF I think it lists all the tournaments with permits in MN.

of coarse the source for a schedule of just MN Bass Tournaments is Classic Bass.

2nd Annual Minnesota Fishing Challenge (for MN Teen Challenge)

Last year was a huge success so they are going to be having the Minnesota Fishing Challenge again this year (click that link to go to the event website).

Date: June 5th 2010
Lake: Gull
Categories: Bass, Pike, Walleye, and Panfish

Each two-person team will submit an entry fee of $100 that covers a banquet the night before the tournament, special awards and prizes. Each team then raises a minimum of $500 from friends, relatives, co-workers, etc. Last year, teams averaged more than $1,000, and the 87 two-person teams raised more than $100,000 for Minnesota Teen Challenge. All donations are 100-percent tax deductible.

Once again the top fundraising team will get a fishing outing with Al Lindner and the 2nd place fundraiser gets a fishing outing with Walleye Dan. This year the 3rd Place fundraiser gets a day trip with Ron Lindner. COOL!!!

Last year the guys that I sponsored won the Pike division.

Note: Once again this year it looks like I have a conflict with the date, so I will be sponsoring somebody else.
