Greetings!

Happy Holidays!

 

December's meeting: This month's meeting we will be showing our annual Year in Review slideshow. There are well over 175 pictures showing BLC events, outings and of course muskies caught throughout the year. Some very impressive muskies for sure!

 

Santa also has visited the BLC and left some nice presents under the tree! 

 

We also will be electing our new BLC Board for 20121

 

Hope to see you all there!

The Iceman on Alex/Sham Results

 

There were 17 people that came out and braved the snow and cold to chase down the mighty muskie. Every boat had action with Jeff Klein boating his very first muskie to win the Iceman! A nice 42"er. Brett Sande finished 2nd with a healthy 38" muskie.

 

Congrats to both of you!
