STREAMS OF THOUGHT\u2014NOTES FROM THE CHAPTER PRESIDENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newsletter<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the New Year often come resolutions.\u00a0 Some of us get \u2018into it\u2019 and write them down with intermediate goals and check boxes with plans to really do it.\u00a0 Others stick things in the back of our mind that we would like to, and may even, get to (and sometimes even complete!!).\u00a0 Whatever form of resolution person you are, I hope you add one or more of the volunteer activities in which the Little River Chapter is involved to your list of New Year\u2019s commitments.\u00a0 None of the projects originating in or coming thru LRCTU go anywhere without volunteer involvement; this means the Chapter, and these activities, need YOU!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One activity that sorely needs some extra help is our immensely successful Trout in the Classroom Program.  We are at 13 tanks and could add a couple more if we had the volunteer manpower.  We particularly need someone to step up and manage the program.  Things like ordering materials, checking on eggs availability, setting up release days and their associated activities are among the things that need a leader to get done.  None of it is rocket science, just requires some interest and energy.  If you would like to help, contact Jim Jeswald (jmjes711@gmail.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another activity is our long running GSMNP Fisheries-related projects.  As I write this, \u2018water sampling Saturday\u2019 for January is coming up.  January is a pretty drab time of year; no leaves on the trees (excepting the Rhododendron and Evergreens!) mostly green-grey, brown-grey, and plain grey colors.  But still it is a way to get outdoors, take a hike, and help the group the Chapter was chartered to support.  Contact Richard Barnes (canceleer1@gmail.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next 10-day forecast is not super positive for mountain fishing conditions; high temps in the 30s and 40s with lows in the 20s and teens\u2014b-r-r-r \u2639!!  Maybe time to dig out my trout spey rod and try some tailwaters.  How about you; do you have some cold weather alternative fishing spots?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tight Lines!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
