The Mississippi River in La Crosse, Wisconsin, is expected to host an FLW EverStart Series' tournament Thursday, July 26, 2012 through Saturday, July 28, 2012. Here are a few more details:
Mississippi River Fishing Tournament Basics
The FLW EverStart Series' event is slated to kick off on Thursday, July 26, 2012 at the Clinton Street Landing West in La Crosse. Participating pro anglers are expected to launch their fishing boats daily, from that location, at 5:30 a.m. They will be competing for a prize purse worth well over $30,000 and valuable points.
A 1:30 p.m. weigh-in session is anticipated to occur at the Clinton Street Landing West the first two days of the fishing tournament. The final day's weigh-in is expected to take place at 2 p.m. Pro fishing aficionados are welcome to watch both the daily launches and weigh-ins.
The Mississippi River event is the FLW EverStart Series' Central Division's third fishing tournament of the 2012 season. The Central Division's final fishing tournament of the season is expected to take place in Osage Beach, Missouri, Thursday, September 13, 2012 through Saturday, September 15, 2012.
