Ok Steve, see if you can give me some simple directions from Rhinelander, to see if I can find
this on my map...

Lake Mohawksin is located in Tomahawk Wisconsin, about 20 miles west of Rhinelander. Follow Highway
8 west to Highway 51 south.

Or follow the Wisconsin River from Rhinelander, either way will get you there.

So far, my plans are to be there. I think Joe mentioned bringing someone
with him, so I've got to talk Dave into riding up with me. Whatcha say
Dave?

How about a little information about the structure of the lake Steve? Is
it shallow like Boom? Any trouble for Jerry this year? How's running on
that lake? You know I'm a sissy in shallow water...

BassMr could ride with you too! Wadda ya say Joe?

Well, now that all the hubbub has died down from the Mid-Tennessee, it's
once again time to look
ahead to the NWC.

It's going to be a little different this year. First of all, the date has
changed. It is no longer
being held the weekend after Labor Day as it has in the past.

This year, the dates are August 26 and 27. I changed the dates for
several reasons. First of all,
I thought that with many schools starting just before/after Labor Day,
that if we moved the date
ahead somewhat, there might be some father/mother/son/daughter teams
attending without school
getting in the way.

Secondly, after hearing some sniveling about "no bass in Boom Lake", I
decided to move the tourney
to Lake Mohawksin, my very favorite smallmouth lake. There has always
been a bass tournament on
Lake Mohawksin the same weekend as the traditional NWC, so by moving up
the date, we get first crack
at the lake. This is a quality smallmouth fishery and if you can't catch
fish on Lake Mohawksin,
you might as well take up golf.

And finally, I'm going to be in Wyoming, at the top of a mountain, chasing
elk for my television
show. Last year I had to go later in the year and missed the elk rutting
season, thus having a nice
3,000 mile round trip sightseeing tour. While I enjoy hiking in the
mountains, it's hard to make an
elk hunting show without the elk. Hence the tourney is getting moved.

This move to a different lake will really change things very little. We
will still have The
Claridge Best Western Motor Lodge as the headquarters. Everyone seems to
like it there, we get
special pricing for the event and it's convenient for the rest of the
festivities. We will still
have dinner Thursday night at The Pub, Friday night we will descend like
locusts on The Al-Gen for
the BEST Friday Night Fish Fry on the planet and Saturday night we'll
still have the award
ceremony/feast at my place.

The major change is that we'll have to get a move on earlier in the
morning because there'll be a 25
minute drive to the landing.

So mark your calendars for August 26 and 27. As in the past, pre-fishing
is always allowed and even
encouraged. Remember that this is similar water to Boom Lake as it is a
dammed up impoundment of
the Wisconsin River. It is roughly the same in size, somewhere around
1,800 acres and water color
is stained. There are thick weeds, lily pads, wild rice, stumps, rocks,
flats, shallows, relatively
deep water and something for everyone. There are some largemouth in the
lake, but I've only caught
on four pounder last year. Like I said, this will be a smallmouth
tournament.

The event is open to all participating members of the ROFB and
OutdoorFrontiers.com so if you hang
out here, you're welcome to attend.

It's a fun event, with lots of stories, laughter, fun and fishing. What
better way to spend a long
weekend?

Mark your calendars and plan on coming to the Rhinelander/Tomahawk
Wisconsin area in August.

Steve, I recently did a small tournament for an on-line community. What I
did was pick the body of water and then check all the local club tournament
schedules. I selected all other dates that were open and then posted a poll
on my website to let people select the dates that were best for them. It
was marked to "select all dates that would be open for you." Then we picked
the date that the most people were able to attend. We still had a couple
people who could not make it do to scheduling conflicts, but all of those
who really really wanted to be there were able to make it. Perhaps
something like that might be in order. You can't please everybody, but you
might be able to get the most of the people that way. Just a suggestion.

Well, it's like this. I work full time at the Rhinelander Fire Department. I started
OutdoorFrontiers Multi-Media LLC and am the host/producer for the nationally televised show, Steve
Huber's OutdoorFrontiersTV. I guide a fair amount of time. I try to write articles for
OutdoorFrontiers.com and edit those that people send to me. I try to maintain the website and build
custom rods. I had a huge backlog of rods and I'm down to two left to build. I'm going to be in
Africa on Safari in July, in Wyoming elk hunting in September, as well as whitetail and exotic
hunting.

It would be nice to have the luxury of giving options, but it's like this....

It's August 26 and 27 or not at all.

LOL, I wasn't criticizing. Just noticing how many people seemed to have
issue with the date. I know how much work it is to host a tournament.

I just wanted to let people know that this wasn't just an arbitrary change,
that I too have scheduling issues.

LOL, you'd have to ask my wife. My hands don't fit a lawn mower, a rake or
a vacuum cleaner. They do however fit a fishing rod, a gun stock or bow
handle........
