Tagging starts Tuesday. They're hoping for two per day

The Bad News: got an email this a.m. that Buoy #11 near Strawberry is missing.

The More Bad News: That's the one that had our receiver on it

More News: I won't call it Good News. Maybe Not as Bad News: There are still a few damaged buoys that haven't yet been retrieved but don't know what the numbers are because the tops were destroyed. Maybe #11 broke off or got knocked out of position. Buoys have Hull I.D. #'s so they'll know when they're…

Beaver Patrol work is still "ON" for Sunday May 6, 10:00 a.m. for anyone interested in doing island trash pickup and tree wrapping. First priority will be to check out the trees along the shoreline.

Here's a prize for the banquet if you're into books a little more on the technical side. 370 pages showing the ranges of all the fish species in NYS plus a little info on each.

Got an email today on a few more telemetry "other-fish hits." I don't know if they're all the same fish or not. Will try to get that data:

Of 3 walleye tagged off the Catt: One showed a hit at Wilkeson, one hit at Union Ship & one at the breakwall (southern half).

One 'eye tagged at the Evans bar showed up in the Black Rock

Of 3 'eyes tagged at Smokes; one of them hit at Black Rock, 2 at City Ship Canal

1 tagged laker showed a hit at the breakwall and one…

Just got an email from Musky Hunter mag. They are donating a one year subscription to Musky Hunter for our banquet.

Bill Hilts, jr has DEC's Don Einhouse talking about Lake Erie's walleye fishing. About 12:50 into it (actually before) they talk GLATOS, the NMA's musky telemetry study, Lakers, Sturgeon study, and a little bit on telemetry

Delicious food, great prizes, and fantastic company! If you missed it, you missed a good one!!

Just got word from Justin of the DEC that they are still on schedule to take our telemetry receivers out of the Harbor on Nov. 30th. You can't ask for a better date than that!

The receivers are (1) @ Union Ship Canal, (1) @ City Ship Canal, (1) @ Wilkeson Pointe and (3) along the inside edge of the breakwall from the South to the Middle Gap. If you see them out there (one piece orange exposure suits), give them a wave (if you're not busy netting) & give them…
