South King County Puget Sound Anglers July 2009
Presidents Message by Frank Eshpeter
Our June meeting featured our 2nd annual Vender Extravaganza
and Swap Meet we had Josh Hughes from Scotty, Gabe Miller
from Sportco, and Tim Bush from Outdoor Emporium. They all
had some great new stuff to share with us and got everyone
excited to get out and give them a try. The Swap Meet was
again a big hit so look for it again next year. Congratulations
to Mike Perusse and Carey. Mike is the G Loomis rep and
had to miss our event do to the birth of their Son Porter
Michael Perusse.
Our July Speaker will be Capt. Bill Dever from Puget Sound
Salmon Charters. Capt. Bill will be talking on Puget Sound
Salmon fishing. With a lifetime of fishing knowledge and
over ten years fishing Puget Sound waters, Capt. Bill specializes
in light tackle angling in Puget Sound and the surrounding
