Weather for travel looks good for tomorrow and we would love to have any American muskie fisherpersons living in reasonable distance to the bridge come over for this presentation and a Canadian beer.

 

Legion is on the main drag and I'm guessing a bunch will be eating at Muskie Jakes before the meeting.

Anyone have a question for the RCMP or coastguard?(if I'm able to make it),i'll try and ask a couple if not already covered.

I would be interested in knowing any new laws/ regulations that we need to follow to cross over and fish. Currently we call in to declare customs... Still the same?

Was a great meeting last night in gananoque... I picked up some pamphlets that I'll have at the banquet.RCMP and US coast guard have formed a joint task force to patrol intl waters. I can elaborate more later. But if you fish border waters you'll want these.If you cannot attend msg me and I'll send them to you...I think I may have enough??

Informative meeting..... picked up papers this morning to apply for passport and will go on line to get a NY license so I will be able to fish the entire river. Looking forward to fishing the joint Can Am outing this summer.

 

Our next meeting Tues. May 10 will feature noted St Lawrence guide Mark Thorpe all are welcome.
