On May 28-29th,
the Cabela’s National Team Championship (NTC) will be at Milford Lake where 185
two person teams from across North America will battle for top honors! Regarded as the walleye world’s premier
grassroots championship, the Cabela’s NTC is comprised of teams that qualified
through competition in local tournaments organized by walleye clubs sanctioned
by The Walleye Federation. There’s a lot
of fishing that has to take place before the winners are determined as the
Cabela's National Team Championship will crown the best team of anglers in the
nation on May 30th. Many of
the anglers have been pre-fishing the lake for several weeks, but most will
begin arriving the week of May 17th.
Teams will vie for ultimate bragging rights and more than $250,000 in
cash and prizes.
The entire field
will compete the first two days on Milford Lake with each team being allowed to
bring their best fish to the scale each day.
Competition will be fierce, as only the top 25 teams advance to the
final round on day three. You are
invited to cheer on your favorite teams daily when they take off from the
Milford Marina – Milford State Park each morning at 7:00 AM, then watch the
action unfold in person at the weigh-ins, which begin at 3:00 PM. The tournament will be live streamed on the
internet at www.cabelas.com/ntc
and at www.walleyefederation.com. The tournament is also being filmed for
national television by NBC Sports and the Pursuit Channel. Exact dates and airtimes will be announced at
a later date.
