2016 Wrap Up and Thank You to Our Sponsors
By Tammy and Don Pyrah, Montana Walleye Circuit Co-Directors
The 2016 Montana Walleye Circuit is now history and it was a great year. We are pleased to announce we will be working to increase sponsors for the Montana Walleye Circuit 2017. We have been in contact with some businesses that want to be sponsors this coming year!
Overall, the majority of the sponsorship support went back into each of the 4 individual circuit tournaments which provided benefits to the greatest number of participants and the greatest exposure and promotion for the sponsors.
We had 700 individuals’ fish in at least one if not more of the circuit events this past year! The break down on those was 285 Adult Teams, 56 Mixed Couples, and 31 Adult/Child Teams. We are hoping to increase participation in both the Mixed Couples and Adult/Child divisions by targeting increased sponsors for those divisions.
Tammy started a Montana Walleye Circuit page on FACEBOOK this past spring. We currently have 250 plus people following on FACEBOOK. We put a link to each of your websites during the circuit season. If you have not checked us out on FACEBOOK please take a look and LIKE us on FACEBOOK as we are trying to keep all of you current with what’s going on with the circuit. We will continue this endeavor while preparing for the 2017 Montana Walleye Circuit Season.
The Circuit held 4 events in 2016:
Fresno Tournament, May 21/22 - 93 Teams
Tiber Tournament, June 10/11 - 91 Teams
Canyon Ferry Walleye Festival, June 25/26 - 142 Teams
Fenwick Fall Classic, August 6/7 - 48 Teams

2016 Walleyes Unlimited of Montana Ft Peck Championship Series
By Steve Harada
The 2016 Angler and Team of the Year awards were unquestionably decided by stellar anglers Norm Sillerud & JR Rasmusan of Glasgow, Montana. These two nearing legendary fishermen from Glasgow started out by winning the Rock Creek Walleye tourney in early June and followed it up with another win in the prestigious Montana Governor’s Cup Walleye event, about a month later in areas of Ft Peck probably 30 -35 nautical miles apart. WOW!! By winning the first two of three events, this left other competitors vying for second place. Congrats Norm & JR for another phenomenal demonstration of walleye fishing expertise.
Their first two out of three dominance didn’t diminish the competition of excitement at the final event one bit. The legendary Hell Creek Walleye tournament had 69 teams who valiantly competed in the last episode. The young guns and stalwart team of Bobby McElvain of Billings and Breyden Rose from Huntley lead wire to wire to capture the first place crown and also won the Adult/Child competition for both the tournament and this year’s Ft Peck Championship Series. A great weekend of fishing was had by these awesome anglers by putting 27.24 pounds on their scorecard on Day 1 and followed it up with 26.0 pounds on Day 2 for a total of 53.24 pounds. Way to go Bobby and Breyden, Holy Cow! This victory also catapulted McElvain into second place overall in the Angler of the Year race with 193.00 points
The rest of the 2016 awards were captured by the following anglers, 3rd place Angler of the Year goes to Chris Grotjohn of Belgrade with 192.36 points. The dynamic duo of Mark Jones of Billings and Ken Schmidt of Glasgow finished in 2nd place for Team of Year with a 186.67 points. They were followed closely by another team who placed second place at Hell Creek and are almost always in the hunt for a top finish, Ron McNary of Williston, ND and Jerome Papineau of Miles City who ended up 186.07 points for the 3rd place spot. The second place Adult/Child spot was captured by Brady and Brandon Babb of Fort Peck. The mixed couple awards was won Monica and Jesse Reuter of Sidney who were 2nd place last year. This year’s runner’s up are Traci and Steve Harada from Wolf Point and 3rd place honors go out to Carly & Whit Rush, also from Wolf Point. Last but not least is the Largest Walleye Caught & Released by a qualifying team and the goes out to Rod Glasoe and Tyler Johnson of Nashua with a 13.69 pound toad that they landed in the Gov Cup. Incidentally, we watched them catch it as it right beside me and Traci! Congrats go out to all of these anglers and also a big thanks to the 552 different anglers who competed in the events. The awards for the Ft Peck Series will be given at the State Banquet next spring in Glasgow.
The overall fishing at the three events was excellent. A huge thanks to our 2016 sponsors – Ft Peck Marina, Rock Creek Marina, The Gateway Club, D & G Sports and Western, Hi Line Ford, J & M Distributing, Git-N-Go, Mon-Dak Marine, Paul’s Glass YETI coolers, and Wolf Point Walleyes Unlimited. We are looking forward to another exciting and fun filled experience for 2017.

HellCreek Tournament
The 2016 Hell Creek Walleye Tournament marked the 30th year of this event. There was a total of 70 teams that competed this year. The first day of the tournament had a very calm take off but the winds didnt stay down, winds came up and blew most of the day at 20+ mph. This wind didnt stop the young team of Bobby McElvain and Breyden Rose from bringing in a 5 fish limit of 27.24 lbs to come in on top. Fred and Ryan Roberts had another good basket of 19.56 lbs to have them sitting in 2nd going into the final day. The mixed couple team of Bill Mitchell and Connie Nance brought in 19.48 lbs to round out the top three.
On Sunday the weather was very cooperative for the fisherman and boy did they take advantage of it. There was 13 teams that brought in a 5 fish limit over 20 lbs. The team of Kris Keller and Marty Oyloe had a great day and had the big basket of 29.91 lbs, while Casey Thomas and Jason Mundel had 28.72 lbs, and coming in with 28.26 lbs to round out the top 3 weights of the day was Cody Strohm and Chris Grotjohn. However the young guns coudnt be caught as they brought in another great weight with 26 lbs.
Bobby McElvain and Breyden Rose finished with a 2 day total of 53.24 lbs out fishing the 2nd place team by 11 lbs. Ron Mcnary and Jerome Papineau had a great 2nd day with a weight of 27.36 lbs pushing them into a second place finish with 42.32 lbs. While Tanner Roth and Jesse Obergfell brought in 27.1 lbs on the second day and boost them into a 3rd place finish with 42.09 lbs. Wendi Ross and Owen Wilcox had two solid days of fishing with a 18.38 lbs on day one and another 23.06 on day 2 bringing them a total of 41.44 lbs to take home fourth place. The team of Thomas and Mundel rounded out the top five with a two day total of 38.06.
Bill Mitchell and Connie Nance brought home the Mixed couple award of a gift card donated by Cabelas and a fishing rod donated by Dead Eye Fishing. The team that had it all figured out of McElvain and Rose took away the Adult Child award. They also received a gift card from Cabelas and a fishing rod from Dead Eye Fishing.
This year we had a very special award to honor a fisherman from Jordan that had done so much for the chapter here in Jordan and for Walleyes Unlimited. It is called the Big Bertha Award that is in honor of Jerry Johnston who passed away this past winter. This award has a walleye sculpture on top of a perpetual trophy that will get the team with the biggest walleye of the tournament engraved on it. This year the team of Colby and John Tognetti brought in a 31.25", 12.38 lb walleye to take the honor of this award.
I would like to that Joe Herbold for running the mic(voice) for the rules meeting and awards ceremony. He always does such a great job and keeps the fisherman entertained. Thanks to everyone from our chapter here in Jordan for all their hard work to keep this event going. A big shout out to our Patrol boats that do so much on the water to keep it all going with out them on the water in wouldnt be very easy to have this a catch and release tournament.

TIBER TOURNAMENT 2016 by Scott Achilles
The 2016 Tiber Tournament was held June 11th and 12th on beautiful Tiber Reservoir 10 miles south of Chester Montana.
Mother Nature provided some entertainment Friday evening for the rules meeting with a torrential down pour and lightning show. We moved to the pavilion where we awarded free entries to all four adult/child teams. Townsend Marine sponsored three teams and Great Falls Walleye Unlimited picked up the tab on the Fourth. What a great way to get things going! A big thanks to Brian at Townsend Marine, and Great Falls Walleyes for sponsoring this. I think this is a HUGE deal.
The thunderstorms finally cleared about 6:20am Saturday and the takeoff went smooth. When everyone was done fishing, the talk off the camp was the big Day 1 weight from Roger Terwilleger and Matt Zeadow of 34.64 lbs. Included in their weight was the day 1 big walleye which was 31.75”/13.02lbs. The closest team to them was Kennie Williams and Travis Scott with 19.22 lbs. Tim Drier and Bob Jenson had the big northern for the day at 33.75”.
Day 2 brought clearer weather but a little slower fishing for most. The team of Chad and Scott Sundstrom were able to bring in the best weight of Day 2 at 19.07lbs. The big walleye of Day 2 was 32.75”/14.37lbs. caught by the team of James Corne and Jerry Baracker.
When everything was settled, Roger Terwilleger and Matt Zeadow held on to win the tournament with and overall weight of 44.72lbs. Taking home over $5500.00 in cash and prizes for their efforts. 2nd place was Leonard McNee and Kevin Hassell with 30.14lbs. Third place-Ray Coleand Steve Thomas, Fourth place-Jason Mundel and Bob Hickey, and rounding out the top five in fifth place was Chad and Scott Sundstrom.
Overall there were some very impressive weights and some very large fish caught. It speaks volumes about the fishery we have here at Tiber. 44.72 pounds in a June tournament is quite a feat. Congratulations to Roger and Matt!
I would like to thank all the sponsors of the Tiber Tournament. With their generous donations we are able to continue this 100% payback tournament. They are as follows: Great Falls Walleyes Unlimited, Townsend Marine, Max Stone Marble and Granite, Wallace Marine, Kenetrek Boots, Eagle Beverage/Bud Light, Superior Tire, Cascade Machine, Dick Headley, RU’s Tiber Marina, Tackle with Love, and the Grand Bar.

2016 Rock Creek Recap by Steve Harada
The 2016 Rock Creek Walleye Tourney was held the first weekend in June. 96 Teams from across Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming gathered for two glorious days of 80 degree temps with light and variable winds. The fishing was great but catching was a bit tough for most anglers to put together two consistent days. Forty mile an hour winds stirred up the big reservoir on Friday and may have stirred up some of the patterns that folks pre-fishing had working earlier in the week.
The phenomenal fishing team of Norm Sillerud and JR Rasmusan from Glasgow were able to put together two solid days and won the tourney. This perennial duo are no strangers to the winner’s circle and continue to show their fishing prowess. Norm & JR are three time winners of this event with wins in 2006 and 2013, as well! Second place honors went out to Todd Dooley and Sam Syth of Sidney who were leading after day one with 27 pounds and were able to salvage a respectable 12.44 pounds on Day two to capture the Runner Up award with 39.44 pounds. Third place honors went out to a father/son team, Rick “Mingo” Justice from Dagmar and Colton Justice from Medicine Lake. These two big fish magnets also captured the big walleye award for both Saturday & Sunday with a 14.03 pound hog on day one and followed up with a 13+ pounder on Sunday. The team Justice had a total of 36.95 pounds.
The adult/child completion was captured by Bobby McElvain and Breydon Rose from Billings and Huntley with a 25th place finish. These young guns ended up with a very respectable 18.36 pounds and look to be a couple of anglers for years to come. The legacy of walleye fishing is in great hands with these fine young men. The mixed couple award was captured by Traci and Steve Harada from Wolf Point who finished 10th overall and 24.66 pounds. Traci caught all the fish but yours truly didn’t knock any off with the net.
Cool under pressure award went to Audie Simpson from Saco and Paul Dull from Hinsdale who advanced the most number of places from day 1 to day 2. Big Northern of the tourney was a 43 inch monster caught by brothers Justin and Jason Bechtold of Willard MT.
Rock Creek Marina did a great job hosting the event and Dennis & Sherry Young and all the patrol boat volunteers did a phenomenal job as always, taking care of the anglers and the fish. Our official scorekeeper Lee Ann Loucks continues to do an awesome job and keep us on track. Thanks to all of the volunteer staff and the other folks who helped with the cards and scoreboard! Congratulations to all of the top finishers and thanks to all of our sponsors. Our major sponsors for this year’s event were Budweiser, Nemont Beverage, Wolf Point Agalnd Co-Op, Wolf Point Walleyes, Big Sky Fire/Joe Moline, Rock Creek Marina, YETI coolers, Main Street Grocery and Bretz RV & Marine. Also a big thanks to all the anglers who fished the event and made it a great and friendly competition.
