THOUGHTS FROM YOUR PRESIDENT……..

Here it is July, with the year half over already! A couple more

of our great events are behind us now. I’m talking about Bar-bara Gattuso’s salt water trip to Costa Rica . I understand that

it was great fishing and a good time was had by all.

Then there was the Italian Feast on June 27th, chaired by Ron and Loretta Casapulla. Along with their crew, they served up

some of their delicious sausage sandwiches and pasta, along with all the desserts brought by many of the ladies for our en-

joyment. The 50-50 drawing was enjoyed by all.

On August 8th, we have our annual Summer Picnic with free Hot Dogs and Hamburgers. Sign up at the next meeting with

our chairmen, Jim and Mary Roy. Ladies, if you would do your magic and whip up one your favorite desserts to bring along we

would all appreciate it.

You campers don’t forget to sign up for the June Lake campout,

September 9th to 15th, with Wagon Masters Gene and Margie Lovelady. It’s just around the corner and they are needing a

headcount ASAP.

At our next General meeting on July 21, we’ll have the manag-er of Lake Cuyamaca and some his rangers speaking to us. I

hope to see you all there.

P.S. Some more good news; we now have our Turkey Fry

chairmen! Cheryl Brandstrom and Will Cozzens will handle the picnic and Gene Ervin and Roy Rogue will be in charge of the

Silent Auction. My thanks to all of you for stepping up to the challenge.

SALT WATER

“FISH AND PLAY THE SENIOR ANGLER WAY”

Barbara Gattuso Vice President

The Bluefiin and Yellowtail have been biting on overnight boats. It's time to go

fishing!!!

All the 11/2 day trips are full, but will take standbys. The Oct 12-15 two and a half day trip has 4 spots left. They won't last long. Call

Paul Montgomery ASAP at (760)941-9064.

Surf Fishing dates are: July 19 and August 16. Phone Don Continelli at (760)224-3458 for details.

Our Costa Rica trip was a huge success. Dave Gehrke caught his first billfish, a

beautiful 85# sailfish, which was released. The 11 anglers fishing caught enough fish to feed all 18 of us plus the boat captains, deck hands and hotel staff for 2

days and still take fish home. The hotel was beautiful and side trips so-o-o much fun!

Gerry Graf will be bringing fresh water tackle to sell at the meeting. Come and

stock up for the coming trips. He will also bring his men’s sandals.

The next trip is Cabo Oct 13-18. I have 3 rooms left so call NOW if you want to go. This year's fishing should be Awesome!!! Don't miss this one. Call or e-mail

me if you are interested.

Local Fishing

There has been a couple nice fish reported. Stan Kieniewicz caught a 7 pound 9 ounce Rainbow at Lake Dixon in May, and Terry Thielen went to Lake Tahoe and

caught a 12 pound mackinaw. Nice fish.

Trip Report

Pinezanita/Lake Cuyamaca: June 10-14

Al and Simone Green hosted another great outing. The weather was great, food wonderful, and good fishing for the 27 attendees. There were over 90 trout caught

with several limits, and some bass and crappie. Will Cozzens caught a nice 3 pounder the first day, but was beat out by Don Hunter who caught a whopper. A 9 pound 2

ounce rainbow. Don was so pleased, he’s having it mounted. When he gets it back, we will have to have him bring it in and show us. Congratulations Don! Jim Stevenson

has volunteered to be Wagon Master for next years Pinezanita trip. It will be a little

earlier next year. Jim has booked the week of May 5.

Upcoming Trips

June Lake, Sept. 9-16

Gene and Marge Lovelady are taking signups. Many regard this as their favorite of the year, with lots of lakes and streams to fish with great hiking and scenery. Be sure

and go on this one. Pinezanita/Lake Cuyamaca. Oct.21-26

Larry and Betty Allen are taking reservations now. It’s a good campout with only a short drive. Usually good fishing with a chance for a big one (ask Don Hunter).
