| President Bob Widner has called a meeting for Tuesday, 9/22 at 5:00pm. Food will be provided along with beverages. It should be a short meeting, yet some decisions need to be addressed. Today,(9/13), a 17 inch Brown was caught,(John from Rockford), in our newly redone section above the concrete hole at the lower end of River RD. I expect fishing to improve greatly as soon as this HOT weather breaks. Your officers are still appreciative of your continued support. Many members got a chance to utilize the grounds this year. Your membership and campground fees are very supportive and do NOT go unnoticed, THANK - YOU! A small local wedding party will be using the clubhouse this coming weekend on Sunday. Book your outing with June for any cabin rental very soon.608-634-4512 Jersey Valley continues to be a pain. Project manager ,Phil Hahn says that the lake level should be kept 2 inched below warm water discharge level. Saturday, I went to Runge Hollow and Sidie Hollow and found most of the discharge was hot surface water. This issue will be addressed soon. This affects both North and South branches of the Bad Axe. Its been a problem here on the West Fork and Seas for years. No one wants to admit. Add government and that is just what you get. Not done yet. My hope is that all parties are happy with the outcome. Nice to see John Gribb here tonight. He seems to get along just fine. Please keep young Dan Wahl in your prayers, as his affliction doesn’t seem to improve.
