New sponsors up the ante and media partnerships announced The inaugural 2011 Princecraft Canadian Walleye Open, presented by Thomas Marine Group is fast approaching and the excitement continues to grow at an exponential rate. Slated for the weekend of June 4th & 5th in town of Sorel-Tracy, Quebec and on the waters of Lake St-Pierre, the two-day competition will feature walleye fishing enthusiasts from all walks of life, near and far, as they compete for the ultimate bragging rights and a first place prize valued at over $25,000. For those unfamiliar with the concept of tournament fishing, the goal is simple. Teams of two anglers have eight hours per day to bring back to the scale the five best fish possible. Traditionally, this would mean the five heaviest fish, but with the recent change in the slot limit regulations for walleye caught in the region of the event(only walleyes measuring between 37cm and 53cm may be kept), organizers feel that this not only changes the game, but most definitely the strategy as well. “The new slot limit will certainly affect the way the competitors need to plan their time on the water.” states Ben Woo, President, Princecraft Open. “What makes this scenario incredibly interesting is that now the format longer favours those professional anglers and guides who know where and how to catch the biggest walleyes. In fact, this new ruling actually gives the average fisherman an incredible opportunity at winning the big prize as well!” Since the announcement of the event, there has been outstanding support from the fishing community and industry. Starting first with the official first place prize which is now confirmed to be a 2011 Princecraft Holiday boat, powered by a Mercury 50hp four-stroke outboard. Included in the package are a Minn Kota trolling motor, Humminbird electronics and a trailer, all courtesy of Thomas Marine Group. Overall, a total ready-to-fish package that many walleye fisherman would be ecstatic to welcome onto their driveways. Pure Fishing, one of the largest fishing product manufacturer’s in the world have also committed to being an official sponsor of the event. Premium brands such as Pflueger reels, Fenwick rods, Spiderwire line and Gulp! Alive artificial baits are now the official and exclusive products of the Princecraft Open. Several prize packs will be available for both competitors and scrutineers alike, adding yet another $2,500.00 of prize value to the pot. The 2011 Princecraft Open is also proud to announce two critical partnerships on the media side of things as well. Sentier Chasse-Pêche, Quebec’s leading outdoors magazine has signed on as an official media partner. Sentier will be providing pre-event promotions and announcements via their web portal, newsletters and Facebook page. Furthermore, look out for exclusive event coverage of the tournament in a future issue of Sentier Chasse-Pêche magazine. Last but not least, RDS, Quebec’s #1 sports channel, will also be airing an exclusive special presentation of the Princecraft Open in early 2012. The 30 minute episode will encapsulate the highlights, emotions and drama of the tournament and truly showcase the sport of competitive fishing to the masses. The Princecraft Open is currently the only walleye fishing competition scheduled to air on television in Canada. With a little over a month of time before the event, the anticipation continues to build and the competitor list grows ever so longer.
