-The format for the meetings will be changing. Guest speakers will speak first and then business to fallow.
-As I mentioned at the April meeting, our guest speaker on Tuesday is Rob
Kirk of the Duval Group. Rob is a product rep for a long list of companies and bait manufacturers. Rumour has it that he often brings lots of freebies
and samples to meetings like ours.
He is also bringing 'Fishing School' to Ontario in the fall, with 6
presenters from the pro BASS circuit (Swindle, Rojas, Bondy, Kriet,
McClelland, and Casey's fav - Iaconelli). He mentioned a discount for our
club members so I will follow up on that and pass on the information.
Attached is the Fishin School Poster if you haven't seen it already.
If enough members are interested in going to 'Fishin School' we could look at going up together as a group for the weekend.-Please recognize Bassmagnetlures and ProAdvantage Paintball on you’re your new shirts
