Want to Join a High School Fishing League?

                            Image result
A local fishing organization wants to find out if there is interest in starting a Minnewaska Lakers High School Fishing League.

There are a number of different high school leagues around the state-11 that are known now.  the team would be made up of students 12-17, and they would fish mainly for bass.  For each tournament fished participants would need to have a parent or guardian drive the boat and be the "boat captain," it was stated.  There are four tournaments set up for this summer.

If parents have a son or daughter who would be interest in a high school fishing league, please give Nancy Koep a call at 320-424-1819.
