Masters Walleye Circuit Anglers,
We’re looking forward to welcoming you to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, July 23–24 for the 2026 Masters Walleye Circuit!
As the event draws near, here are a few tournament notes:
We’ve received several questions regarding nightcrawlers. Nightcrawlers may be used on tournament waters. However, anglers fishing in Canadian waters should remember that nightcrawlers cannot be transported or possessed in dirt or soil bedding.
Special Launch Passes:
Thanks to the generous support of the Sault Ste. Marie Convention & Visitors Bureau, the majority of the cost of the launch passes has been covered. As a result, anglers can purchase a special launch pass for just $15, valid July 21–25, at:
Last Resort
1100 E. Portage Avenue
Sault Ste. Marie, MI 49783
Please be sure to thank Linda and her crew for their support when you see them at Wednesday night’s rules meeting.
Rules Meeting:
A meal will be provided before Wednesday night’s official rules meeting, so come hungry and enjoy the opportunity to visit with fellow competitors before we review tournament procedures.
We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing everyone in Sault Ste. Marie. Safe travels, and we’ll see you soon!
Jeff Kelm
Tournament Director
Masters Walleye Circuit
