The NWMI Fishing Club supported the Coalition to Protect Michigan Resources
On 23 October 2021, Volunteers from The NWMI Fishing Club supported the Coalition to Protect Michigan Resources (CPMR) at the VFW Hall on Veteran's Drive in Traverse City. We had 12 volunteers, selling raffle tickets for a weekend getaway and a Great Lakes Charter Fishing Trip, we setup the venue, prepared the meals, cleaned up and had a great time doing it. Thanks to our club volunteers. We made light work of this event.
The Coalition to Protect Michigan Resources (CPMR) which advises the state, federal and tribes on “sportsmen want and needs” presented a sanitized status on the latest status of the Consent Decree and how they have been doing. Negotiations have continued at a snail’s pace and we wait with a whole lot of uncertainty if our fishery lives or dies. The NWMI Fishing Club is in an “advise and monitor” mode.
Hey everybody, the election went well last night in regards to a good turnout of in-person voting and a 75% return rate on absentee ballots. All things considered, a pretty pleasing participation rate.
Mike Radcliffe retained his seat as the President
Tim Hossack retained his seat as the Secretary
Matt Marciniak is our new Board Member
Cory Udell remains the Tournament Director for The Walleye Chase.
Also in the news, by a unanimous vote last night, The Walleye Chase will officially break away from the NWMI Fishing Club and be its own self-standing organization. We (The NWMI Fishing Club) will support it from a different perspective.
With their (The Walley Chase) successes from this year and growth coming in the next season this is a great move for both organizations. We will continue to have Walleye Chase competitors on our board and several other NWMI Fishing Club members competing in the Walleye Chase, and we will continue to support in ways that are mutually beneficial.
Zach Crawford will be stepping down as a voting board member as of 06JAN2022 and the decision whether to replace his position or not is a think-piece for the next meeting.
Thanks to everyone who showed up to vote and even sit through our abbreviated board meeting. It was great to see everyone and look forward to a great winter fishing season.
