EAGLE RIVER, Wisc., June 7, 2010 - Starting June 7, Brewers fans and fishing aficionados can win a fall fishing trip to Eagle River with FOX Sports Wisconsin’s (FSW) own Brewers commentator Bill Schroeder. For two nights, the winner and a guest will enjoy the comforts offered by the exceptional staff at Wild Eagle Lodge and taste some of the best food Eagle River has to offer. Saturday afternoon will be spent on the water, swapping fishing tales with Schroeder while being led through the waters by professional fishing guide “Ranger Rick” Krueger.
No other location in the Midwest can offer the same thrilling fishing adventure as Eagle River. Located on Wisconsin’s world-famous Chain of 28 Lakes, the waters surrounding Wild Eagle Lodge are home to muskellunge, walleye, perch, trout, small-mouth and large-mouth bass, sauger, northern pike, and a variety of panfish such as crappie, pumpkinseed and bluegill.
“Our prime location makes us one of the most desired fishing destinations in Wisconsin,” said Derek Burzinski, resort manager, Wild Eagle Lodge. “This is an amazing opportunity to experience what Eagle River has to offer and meet one of FSW’s most engaging personalities.”
Winners kick off their experience at a Friday night dinner for two at the historic White Spruce Inn. Saturday morning the winner will go out on the water with Schroeder, followed by dinner for two at Riverstone Restaurant & Tavern, then wrap up their weekend with Sunday brunch at Eagle Waters Resort.
