CEA/CISP Walleye Tourney Nets Record Catch!
Forty people fished for walleye in the Eleventh Annual CEA/CISP Walleye
Tournament out of Port Clinton, OH on Saturday, June 16, 2007. CEA/CISP
contractors and friends arrived in Port Clinton on Friday evening and enjoyed a
perch dinner with wonderful door prizes donated by several companies including
VIP Restoration, Donley’s, First Energy and CEA. Hudson Workwear contributed
t-shirts commemorating the eleventh year of the event.
Carlos Figueroa, Jr. of Donleys and Elmer Mekker of VIP Restoration emceed the
event and assisted with the distribution of door prizes. A raffle for a $200 rod
and reel combo with “CEA Walleye Tournament” printed on the handle and an
underwater video camera wrapped up the evenings entertainment.
Anglers had to be on their boats by 7 AM Saturday and had to be in by 3 PM. In
2006, the total weight of walleye caught was 186 pounds – we doubled that catch
with the same number of boats in 2007 for a total of 368 pounds!
Tournament Prizes went to the following:
- First Walleye: Chuck Weyrick, First Energy, 7:34 AM – Tabletop propane heater
- Most Walleye: Dwayne Lucky, Donley’s, 14 – TomTom ONE Portable GPS Unit
- Team Prize: Boat named “Celtic” with the team from South Shore Electric including Paul Zielazienski, Bob Hardway, Bob Hogue and Jim Kulon, and Steve Kinn of CEA. The team prize included a new spinning rod and reel for each member of the team.

There’s a Ted Kennedy joke in there somewhere.
