MESSAGE FROM THE PREZ
Wow, I can¡¯t believe we¡¯re already halfway through our
tournament season. So far, our season has been truly a
success and I might add, a lot of fun. The catches have been
quite impressive with the winning limits beyond expectations.
With five tournament-fishing days, we have had three of those
days with five-fish limits for the full field. I can¡¯t remember that
ever happening before. Seems like our Tournament
Committee should be applauded, not scolded.
With the tournaments that we¡¯ve had so far, it amazes me how
most of us are fighting for one hundredths of a pound; yet, two
or three guys just blow the whole thing away. It only proves
the amount of talent in this club and how hard it is to win one
of these things.
Last meeting we heard how Paul blew us away at Schroon,
and now at our next meeting we will hear from Joe as to how
he did it to us at Saratoga!
Again, I want to thank you guys for the excellent attendance at
our meetings and our tournaments. At our July 27th meeting
we will have our Sacandaga boat draw, lock down our
Husband/Wife tournament for August 11th, and give our INSIDE THIS
support for our 2012 Albany Club Team. These guys worked
hard last year to make this team, all with one thing in mind ISSUE:
and that is to bring home the trophy for the ¡°Albany Area

Meeting Minutes
From Secretary Treasurer¡¯s Report - Paul Pflieger: Currently we have $4124.17 in our
Danny Harrington checking account.
Membership Report - Keith Adams: No report.
Banquet Committee - George Locke: Banquet will be held on November 10,
2012 at the American Legion in East Greenbush! They will do food, beer, and have a speaker and podium
for us. Very reasonable and
Conservation Report: Be safe at Rouse¡¯s Point. It¡¯s bigger water. Make sure your fire extinguisher,
bilge pumps and lights work. Paul Pflieger reports that the water quality at Schroon is AA. Meaning it is fine
for drinking water, and contains no green algae. The lake accomplished this by hand harvesting asian
millfoil, boat launch stewards, and education about envasive species.
NYSBCF - CTC entry has been simplified. It is the 3rd weekend in August. All of our team members are
pumped and dedicated. We have a great chance at toppling the rest of the clubs this year on our home turf.
Legislation: Our letter about Lake George boat launch restrictions was sent out. We await a reply.

New Business: WE WILL BE RAFFLING OFF A FISHING ROD AND REEL AT THE NEXT
MEETING! BRING CASH!!! IT GOES TO SUPPORT OUR MEN HEADED TO THE NYS CLUB TEAM
CHAMPIONSHIP!
Non- Boaters: PLEASE, YOU MUST OFFER YOUR BOATER MONEY FOR
GAS! It is very expensive to maintain, operate and tow these boats. They are the
backbone of our tournaments. Customarily, expect to offer $20, or more if you do
a lot of traveling. It is up to the boater to make the decision if they don¡¯t want to
accept any money.
Joey C finds the his way to
dominate the field at Saratoga!
