There are some great prizes to win.If you fish lakes that produce large walleye it would be well worth the ten dollar entry fee.Myself i have wasted ten bucks on alot of other things.I doubt Pigeon will produce a 28" fish but what the heck.Good luck to all that enter the contest.

I'm honestly not sure we, in Alberta, can compete with the walleye that are going to top this contest. There will obviously be some 30"+ tankers out of Manitoba, but the winners might be those mutant freaks in Washington that are coming outta the Columbia River feeding on those salmonoid species that roam in there. I was thinking Newell might be one of the only places in the southern half of the province that could compete, but it would almost have to be a fluke...

We Albertans probably don't stand a chance but it does add a lot of fun to the fishing!

We Salvaged this day after failing getting into a back country perch lake due to snow that was just TOO DEEP. The ATVs could not handle it. So we ended up on LLB where some big ones swim for the evening bite. The fish were spread thin but pretty aggressive. The slender spoon was bringing them in from a distance and they would usually come in hot and smack it. I missed a bunch of the actual action due to dead batteries and just not keeping the camera rolling. Sorry for that. It's been a slow unpredictable winter for us. Makes video very tough. But hey we got the Fish Donkey App entry pics and release videos at the end from my fish at least for you to enjoy!*

Thanks for watching. Thank you Aaron for putting this one. My uncle and I entered and we really enjoyed it. If you put on another one and we happen to be fishing I'm sure we will do it again! Even though we most likely have no hope in grabbing a top spot.*

Anybody know the length of the 15 lb 11 oz. Alberta record walleye caught in the Pembina River a few years back?

We caught a 15.4 lb walleye 4 years back and it was 32 inches

Thanks. I think the Canadian record was around 18 lbs and 34" caught in Ontario. My PB was a 12 pounder out of the Peace River in the 70s.

Vid coming soon....AW and his girlfriend went up to Wekusko to try and get on the winning fish, but my understanding is they didn't get it. Was his buddy (and dog Rufus!) from Washington that nailed a beauty out of the Columbia. But again, vid should be out really soon...
