Roger, Fred, Tom, Katie, Larry, Shelly, Johanne, Louis, Ben, Penelope, Lucas and a host of others had an awesome week of fishing.

PERMIT (Palometta): The permit were crazy as usual and proved difficult to land but, Louis, Jerry, Tom and Katie all got it done. Between the windy conditions and a few cloudy days, permit were a bit unsettled. That's permit fishing for ya!

Come and join us for the fight!
