April 27th General Meeting

The April 27th General Meeting promises to be one not to be missed. Our featured Speaker will be Toby Black, who is our resident Washington Dept of Fisheries Test Fisherman. This means that Toby is out on the waters everyday trying different methods, systems and areas to fish trying to determine the who, what, where and why the fish do what they do. His talk will begin at 7:00, but not to be missed before that will be a complimentary BBQ dinner per the poster below. We will also be featuring a 50% off all our old logo gear per the info below and that's a steal.
Hope to see you all there.
