kentlakecarper Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Hello All, I have decided now is a good time to exit the CAG Board of Directors and refocus my limited energies on my local carp fishing scene here in Michigan and come out of bait making retirement I cannot even begin to express a heartfelt thank you to all the awesome people I have met and worked beside during my venture as CAG President/Treasurer for the past few years so I'll just say that you all are very much appreciated and I hope to see you on the bank again! All the best to the clubs new Board of Directors, they are very passionate individuals with fresh ideas that will hopefully benefit each and every one of CAG's members now and into the future. Tight lines, Andy Sprinkle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(NY) AF Bob Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Since 2005 Andy has worked to improve our organization. He has held many roles and helped numerous anglers across the country. He will be missed on the BOD but I know we all wish him the best as he starts a new path in his life. I'm sure we will see great things in his home state and maybe we will get the chance to fish with some of his new home made baits! Good Luck From All Of Us.

redcoat Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Hi Andy Many thanks for your many years of work for our group.......and especially for coming "out of retirement" to help out with the rebuilding efforts over the last few years. One of these days I really need to get off my lazy *** and come out to MI for one of your fish-ins.......if only to get humiliated by some of your youthful carp prodigies! Let me know when you are ready to take orders on the bait. Take care. Iain Edited January 23, 2015 by redcoat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
