Steve...is that about a 1-1/2 hr ride from here?  Thanks..JJ

[Stephen Glassic]

About that or maybe 10 min less from Eldridge Club. Depends on how fast you go. Just a little over a mile from the thruway exit.

[Stephen Glassic]

Just a reminder for Monday. I can't wait.

[John Jarosz]

Steve...right now, I'm planning on being there.  Should be a good presentation.

[John Jarosz]

Steve...AWESOME presentation by Dr. John.  I could have listened to him talk all night.  The info, knowledge & background he has should give us all a lot of hope for predator restoration.  Thanks for posting the event and many thanks to "Toothy" for running the meeting.

[Stephen Glassic]

Yes it was a very interesting presentation. He has been involved for a long time and has a wealth of knowledge. New York State and the fisheries community is very fortunate to have his dedication as well as Kevin Kapuscinski.

Peter Levick played a key role in helping to set it up by introducing him to me. Peter is a great guy and it was nice to meet him and Jim Herrod last night. Jim told me they enjoyed visiting his lure shop this morning.

Steve...if you have any more guest speakers, can you let us know?  After being there for your last meeting, I'm now more inclined to go to others.  Thx.

[Capt. Larry D. Jones]

How was the turnout for the seminar?

[Stephen Glassic]

There was about thirty.

[Capt. Larry D. Jones]

That is good there was a good turnout,felt bad I had to miss that seminar,had to be a lot of good info from Dr John Farrell!

[John Jarosz]

Cap'n...he talked mostly about the research & results up in the Larry.  It was a real good presentation and I took away some info that I think we'll be able to use if we get into Harbor restoration.  There were some good points to keep in mind.

Somebody in our club mentioned Skype at one time & I've been poking around looking into what's involved.  If we ever get that far, it would open up a whole new way of getting presenters.  The easiest & quickest way to get there would be to hire a 14 year old to teach an old-timer like me all about it.

[Stephen Glassic]

Yes, His knowledge goes well beyond the St. Lawrence River and muskies.
