What if 1 fish could win you over $300,000 in boats?! Well, it can! The Walleye Slam and Fall Brawl on Lake Erie are two derbies that run through the fall and give out incredible prizes to the winners. This year belonged to Ed Hatten and Len Heffron, tournament partners for over 20 years, from New York. Ed weighed in a 31.25" 12.30lb monster! Since they were signed up for both derbies they took home both top prizes; a Warrior 238 and a Ranger 622. We sit down with Ed and Len and talk all about their win. Fishing Tactics, stories of being on the boat, info from bait shops and everything in between, they said nothing was off limits and they answered it all. We hope you enjoy this one as much as we did!
