Largest First Place Prize in Evinrude Walleye Classic History
It's another banner year for the Evinrude Walleye Classic
with over $100,000.00 in cash and prizes. The Evinrude Walleye
Classic is an exciting and unique tournament offering more
ways to win than nearly any other tournament. The big news
this season is the tremendous purse. This year's first place
prize is the largest in the history of this tournament. Get
the right bites and your team may be leaving with two new
Lund Classic 16 SS Boats, two Evinrude E- TEC Outboards, two
EZ Loader Trailers, both rigged with Minn Kota Trolling Motors
and Humminbird Electronics. The first place prize is guaranteed
and is worth over $42,000.00. That's a $17,000.00 value increase
over last year's first place package. Aside from the giant
first place prize, what makes the Evinrude Walleye Classic
so unique is that there are so many ways to win. The top 30
teams in "The Classic" cash a check.
There are divisional prizes, totaling over $15,000.00, up
for grabs. Guys, gals, and kids find yourself a fishing partner
and you could win the BERKLEY TRILENE Male/Female Division,
BERKLEY GULP! Adult/Youth Division, ABU GARCIA All Female
Division, or the BERKLEY POWERBAIT Veteran Angler Division
for anglers 55 years and older. Have a tough first day on
the lake, but get it together on second day; you could win
Minn Kota's Power Drive Award. This award is for the team
that advances the most places from Day one to Day two. Northern
Lights Casino's Your Lucky Day Award may be yours if you land
right in the middle of the pack. Perhaps you don't do so hot
in this year's tournament, you could receive Humminbird's
You Need Direction Award. You land the BIG one on Day one
or Day two and money is heading your way. The grand total
for cash and prizes awarded is over $101,000.00. That is over
a 90% payback to the anglers. Leech Lake is again home to
the Evinrude Walleye Classic. Join us at the tournament site
in Walker City Park in Walker, Minnesota. Bring your family
and friends as fun activities begin at noon on June 4th and
5th. Regardless of your age or angling ability, the Evinrude
Walleye Classic is an event that all will enjoy. " Lure Company
