If you're a current member of the club, I'd like to hear your suggestions.  If you have photos from a recent trip and a story to tell, send them to me and I'll get them uploaded as quickly as possible.  We need your help to make this website better than ever.  Thanks for your help.

This website is a work in progress and viewers may expect to see several changes to our content as we work hard to make it better.  If you have questions, comments or items you'd like to submit (photos or fishing stories), please email them to Terry Thompson or forward to Mr. Louis Vallee. 

A few of the buttons on the left aren't working yet, but we still wanted to publish current results for our 72nd Annual 4th of July Fishing Rodeo.

Contact the Webmaster       or     Contact Mr. Louis Vallee 

                            


Thanks to Stephen Brown for submitting a few photos.  Send us your pictures and fishing stories for us to post on our photo gallery.

Give us some ideas to add to our website.

Anyone want to share fishing locations, rig numbers, coordinates, tips, tricks, DIY lures and jigs, etc..  I'm considering putting up a page or two to help out fellow fishermen find, catch and keep fish.  I know you've been out there throwing darts and not having much luck, so if there's a way we can help each other out, that'd be awesome.
