Brian Chipman retirement

Post by bagman »

As folks here may or may not know. Brian will retire after 33 years of service to F&W. I would personally like to thank him for his service and his contributions to making Champlain a better fishery.

That was quite a run, Brian. Thanks for all you’ve done for the restoration of our Salmonid fisheries over the past 33 years and your continued support of the Forum. We always looked forward to your Lake updates at the winter workshops. Enjoy retirement

I remember meeting Brian for the first time at Perkins Pier in 1986 during a LCI weigh-in for us. Very passionate about our fishery. Thanks for supporting the Winter Seminars Brian and your tireless efforts with our fishery and enthusiasm. Hope to get you out on my boat! Retirement is pretty cool as you can pick the weather you want Monday-Friday with no line at the access areas.
