dampeoples Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 The News and Observer did an article on local fishing clubs, and we got chosen for the photo shoot. For those that don't know, I run the Jon Boat Fishing Club, it's my baby There is an outdoors section of the paper every Thursday, we got a full story on the club last year, which was a really nice two page spread, so I was surprised to whip the paper out this morning, and see the JBFC sticker on my boat on the front page, with directions to the article! When I flipped over to the article, there was a picture of me weighing some fish, and my boat again We also got top billing on the club listing, which was super nice! Here is a link to the article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dampeoples Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Thanks! I knew they were there, but I had no idea they were taking pics of me! Already got a few calls/emails off the article, I've been trying to make it in print earlier in the year, when it's not so hot, and more folks are thinking of fishing, but I'll take what I can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
