  2. Iain,

    So happy you got elected. Good luck with everything.

    I know we talk a lot....if you want to call, feel free to call any evening....5:00 t0 8:00 PM.

    I'm back on my skiing schedule in the daytime and no service in the mountains.

  3. Bob, good luck with everything. And, thanks so much for all your hard work and dedication through the years as President.
  4. As the CAG Secretary, it is my duty to certify the Presidential Election. This has been done by the CAG Secretary for all past Presidential Elections. Below is a copy of that document that will be added to the books and records which I maintain for CAG. I will also add my signature and the official CAG seal to this document. This finalizes the CAG Presidential Election. Certificate of Election This document certifies the results of the Carp Angler Group Presidential Election held from Nov.6 , 2017 to Nov. 20, 2017. The results are as follows: Iain Sorrell- 68 Larry Kirchner- 14 Iain Sorrell declared the winner. Recording Secretary: Dave Pickering Signature: Recorded on this date: Nov. 21, 2017
  5. Iain, congrats on being elected President. I know this is a big job and a big committment. Good luck with moving the club forward.
  6. Iain, Thank you for imforming us about this very important proposal to make the CT River trophy carp waters. And, thank you so much for working on this. Everyone in this group should consider supporting this proposal because this could open the door for other states to do the same thing. This could be a landmark proposal that could impact all of us. I sent off a letter to Mr. Foreman. Here is a copy of that letter: Dear Sir, I would like to comment on your proposal #9 which makes the CT River "Trophy Carp Waters". I wholeheartedly support this proposal. While I am a RI resident, I do purchase a CT freshwater fishing license every year just to fish the CT River for carp. The CT River is a world class carp fishing water and passing that proposal would keep it that way. It would also preserve the large trophy fish that so many anglers pursue. I also see this as an economic issue. Many fishermen from NE, the US and even from overseas go to the CT River every year to sample its outstanding carp fishing. These people purchase licenses, buy equipment, stay at hotels and spend money on gas and food. Passing this proposal would assure that this continues. Carp fishing, like every other fishery, can have a fragile future. Yes, they can get fished out with increased pressure. Right now, the river offers the best carp fishing in New England and protecting that fishery will only assure that it will continue to be that way. So, please consider my comments and hopefully pass this important proposal. Dave Pickering
  7. Willem,

    I can't seem to find my password for the Director's Forum. I thought it was automatically saved but I am wrong. Could you resend it to me...thanks.

  8. Another problem with the leaderboard is that some guys are not adding photos. One of our guys from RI had that problem. He said it wouldn't take his photo. My guess is that the size of the photo must be reduced in order to add it. Maybe an explanation of how to add the photo would be in order. Just a suggestion. In the past...no photo, no entry. Is a photo required?
  9. So, does anyone have any photos of this major event? I saw Edwin taking a bunch, Would be great to post a few here.
  10. I was there and can also report a terrific success, Iain Sorrell, our VP, deserves all the credit in the world for setting this up and making the event a great success. THANK YOU, Iain, for all your hard work and dedication on this project.
  11. Edwin, thanks for volunteering for this big job. Good luck.
  12. Good luck, Larry and welcome aboard. Thanks for volunteering.
  13. Mark, Good luck with this important position and thanks for stepping up. Dave
  14. Willem,

    Dean asked me to get in touch with you regarding my membership extension (2 years) for winning the Discovery Month Story Contest and the Discovery Month Photo Contest.  I trust you can take care of this.

    Thanks,

    Dave Pickering

  15. A huge thank you for all you have done. Members don't realize how much work you have put into this job. Will be difficult to find a replacement.
  16. Just got to this...great job as always, Dean.
  17. Thanks for stepping up and good luck. Look forward to working with you guys.
  18. Looking forward to this. And, huge thanks to Dean for all your hard work on this.
  19. I also echo all these sentiments for adding and running more events. All really good points. But, the key here is that we DESPERATELY need an events coordinator, a big job that requires a big commitment. Anyone out there interested......
  20. A huge congrats ot Ol Captain. I have enjoyed his insights and posts for many, many years.
  21. Great job you guys. Hats off to our volunteers.
  22. I have fished with Rob many times..... a great guy, a terrific fisherman and an ambassador for CAG. He is a terrific addition to our New England carp fishing group and I have no doubt he will put NH on the map. Welcome aboard!
  23. Good luck, Mark. Enjoy your role as state chair. If you need any advice on running things in Oregon let me know.
  24. Thanks for taking on this big job. Good luck and look forward to working with you.
  25. I agree 100%. I have ordered a lot of stuff from Wacker and Paul has been great.
