Lake Champlain United - Forums

Should have been there for those that missed it! It was a great event!

Once again, the seminar was a pleasure. The guest speakers left us with great info. about our waters and ideas on how to help make it better. Huge thanks to Bill, Dean, Rob, Ron and all the good folks that put this thing together. Gets us fired for the DYP and open waters.

A few additional photos and comments:

Here is the smallest of the Mag Lip series the 2.5 size from my presentation last night. I removed the treble on the back and added a number 1 size single hook. The unique thing as well about these Mag Lip lures you can change out hooks without hurting the action. This 2.5 size has been very productive for some guys here on Champlain last year!




Congratulations to Harvey Allard for winning the grand prize in our drawing of the Lowrance Hook 5 Sonar / GPS combo! Tickets sold at this event last night for the raffle are sending two kids to Conservation Camp for a week this Summer! Thanks for your support!

A huge thanks to the guest speakers who have put on some wonderful presentations over the years.

I apologize if I missed any

This was the first workshop my son and I have been to, and we really enjoyed it! Definitely plan on attending them in the future. The guest speakers did a great job and had some very interesting information to share.

Thanks to everyone who worked to put these workshops together. And a BIG thank you to everyone that donated prizes for the raffle. We were very happy with our prizes, especially the charter trip with Capt Thorny! Can't wait!

Thanks Crayfish! We have had several new visitors to our workshops this year. You will have a great time on Rob's boat!

Added two photos I missed thanks to Gerry for providing:
