Food is available in the new lakeside restaurant Friday evening plus buffet style dinner offered by Lake Mayfield Resort for a minimal charge in the tournament room above the store during the entertainment on Sat evening. Entertainment: Jack Tipping (father of WA tiger muskies) is putting on a fantastic tiger musky presentation immediately following the meal on Sat evening. Bruce Bolding (WDFW and tourney judge) will be putting on his candid slide show of the contestants performing at their best throughout the day. This should prove to be a great wrap to the first day of competition. There will be more than $3000.00 in raffle prizes to give away to some lucky winners after the awards on Sunday. Cash prizes will be awarded for the top 3 fish, plus this year we're offering a 'Double Option' that will offer some cash to the team or person registering a double during the event.

This is not a high level competition event. It is based on fun and camaraderie. Sportsmanship is highly regarded in this event.

Chapter 57 of Muskies Inc. is a non-profit organization that was started in May of 2007 in the State of Washington. The goals of the chapter are to promote Muskie Fishing in the great Northwest, provide information and services to Muskie Fishermen, promote Catch, Photo and Release where it's appropriate, and provide information to other groups about the benefits of having Muskies in Northwest lakes, as well as the proper way to handle a Muskie if one is caught.

Chapter meetings are on the third Thursday each month at Round Table Pizza in Federal Way, WA. 34410 16th Ave S. in the Walmart parking lot, from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.

A Message Board/Forum specifically related to Muskie fishing in Washington is available at WashingtonLakes.com.

The national organization, Muskies, Inc., is an active, service-oriented, non-profit organization for men, women and children with the single focus of improving the sport of Muskie fishing everywhere the fish are found. Founded in 1966 by Gil Hamm, the original group of thirteen avid Muskie fisherman concentrated on continual improvement of the Muskie resource through rearing and stocking efforts and sound conservation practices.

State departments of natural resources have realized the value of stocking Muskies. Thirty-seven of the lower forty-eight states currently have active Muskie stocking programs.

Muskies, Inc. has expanded to over 7,500 members and 53 independent local chapters throughout the country. Muskies, Inc. has become a national voice of the protection of the Muskie species.

Muskies, Inc. is widely recognized as the first organized group of sports anglers to espouse the "Catch and Release" practice now embraced by many conservation minded groups throughout North America. Today the National Organization focuses on three critical areas: Youth, Fisheries, and Research.
