2021 Tim Wittek Memorial Tournament

[Scott McKee]

When: Sunday, November 7.

Time: 7am to 4pm.

Where: The upper and lower Niagara River, Buffalo Harbor and the eastern end of Lake Erie.

Eligibility: NMA members only.

Entry fee: $25 per person.

Measurements: Muskies must be measured  horizontally on a non-flexible measuring device.  Quarter-inch measurements will be rounded down. Photo or video of fish on measuring device required.  Participants are encouraged to report all releases to Scott McKee, [phone]. I will post standings updates on our website periodically.  This will prevent unnecessary measurement of fish too small to qualify.

Payouts: Cash prizes will be awarded for the three largest muskies released. 50% first place, 30% second, 20% third.

To enter: Contact Scott Kitchen, [phone].

Please post your intent to enter or questions below.

If you are planning on entering the Wittek please respond to this post. I need to get a handle on how much pizza to order.

If you haven't paid yet, contact Scott Kitchen or be at the foot of Sheridan at 6:30am-ish. Jojo will be there to collect. If you are fishing the harbor, confirm with me you are fishing the Wittek prior to the start and then pay at the foot of Sheridan afterward.

I encourage all TWMT participants to take a ton of images from the event. Fish (hopefully), scenery, your partner fishing, other NMA boats, your lunch, etc.. are pure gold for the newsletter. Zap the originals to [e-mail]. Thanks!
