Hey Guys
My Uncle Don Passed away on Tuesday & the Wake is at 12:30 & Funeral 1:30 on Saturday, so I'm hoping to be at the Hatchery on Sunday morning, the President of the Club Al Wilkins will be there to open up & do the Fin Clipping on Saturday & Sunday, I'll e-mail Al to let him know who is going to help.
Thanx & Tight Lines Richard

My condolences, Richard. I was hoping to chat.

I intend to do a stint on Saturday and greet new faces of old friends met here.

10348 clipped this morning...there's still another tank for the folks clipping on Sunday. One tank of the smaller sized bows will be done in a month from now.

Cheers
Mike
