FOND DU LAC, WI - ­With three out of four top five finishes including one win, the team of Patrick Seibert and David Lemke clinched the World Walleye Association Illinois Chain Team Challenge Team Of The Year Title for 2005.

Seibert and Lemke started the year off with a fifth place finish at the May first event and came back two weeks later with what they learned and won the May 15th event. At the June 12th event they placed 3rd and even though they slipped a bit at the final event August 28th by placing 13th, they still managed to earn 1764 points out of a possible 1800 outdistancing second place finishers Dusten and Edward Klepacki by 14 points.

Scott and Tammy Duncan won the Husband and Wife Team Of The Year title and placed 15th overall in points. Though the Duncan¹s had two tournaments where they only got 100 show points they made up for it by placing fourth in the second event of the year and by winning the third event of the series.

The World Walleye Association Illinois Chain Team Challenge holds all it¹s tournaments on the Fox Lake Chain.

The next event for the WWA Anglers that have qualified is the East Regional Championship to be held on the Illinois River out of Henry.
