Meeting Notice:
General Club Membership meeting: Sunday October 30, 2005 1pm at the Old Waterfall, Hwy 371 Brainerd.

Words from the President: It would seem our year ended the same way it began. You may recall that our first tournament of the year on Farm Island had some rather heavy rain for most of the morning. And Keith Tuma won that tournament with about eighteen pounds of fish.
Well...our final tournament on Cedar had some rain for most of the day. And Keith teamed with Craig Paulson to take first place honors. Their limit of eight fish weighed eighteen pounds. Congratulations to Keith and Craig. Keith also took big bass honors with a four pound lunker. I believe that was his fourth big fish of the year. It was a good year for Mr. Tuma.
Congratulations, also, to Arnie Farber and Kim Borden. They managed a second place showing. Great job!
Needless to say, with three wins on the season, Keith won the Angler of the year title. Second place in the angler division goes to Jim Eide. In the co-angler division, Troy Bruns finished in first place, with Kim taking the second spot. Keith, Jim, Troy, and Kim will comprise our state team for next year. Dan Doughty will be the alternate. Of course, we can send more to the state tournament, depending on the number of anglers we sign up for the state federation. Next year's state tournament is on Gull, so we might want to attempt to send as many anglers as possible.
All in all, it was a good and fun year, and we are looking forward to next season. We will have a club meeting October 30, 2:00 PM, at the Waterfall. A final club get together will be October 16 at Keith's place. It should be a fun time.
Have a great winter, and we will see you all next fishing season.
