JAN & STEVE KOPP
2007

WALLEYE ANGLER’S TRAIL
TEAM OF THE YEAR

Congratulations to the husband & wife team of Steve & Jan Kopp from Dubuque, IA. who captured the title of “Team of the Year”.  Steve & Jan used their fishing skills to out pace the rest of the field in the hotly contested 2007 competition.

Jan & Steve proved that consistency was the key to success this year by placing 4th at the Dubuque tournament which locked up the 2007 title. 

Jan & Steve also set the W.A.T. Big Fish record this year with Jan pulling in a 10.30 lb. walleye at our Eastman, WI. tournament in May.

 

WAT
GENOA, WI. TOURNAMENT
CANCELLED

Due to the prolonged winter with its thicker then usual icing, repeated snow storms and lack of sufficient thawing temperatures in Pool #9, I have found it necessary to cancel the Genoa, WI. Tournament scheduled for Mar. 16, 2008.  Conditions on the river, at this time, are not conducive to holding the tournament. 

I wanted to make this announcement early enough to allow, those who are affected, sufficient time to change their plans.
