Okoboji, IA (KICD)– Walleye Weekend is upon us. Iowa Great Lakes Chamber Program Director Kylie Zankowski says an optional contest is returning for 2024.

Zankowski also reminds non-profit groups to complete their grant applications by Friday.

The Grand Prize is 42 thousand dollars, and anglers can also register for the extended contest that pays out if any of the tagged fish are caught after the tournament wraps up.
