For those coming to the conference , I just might be giving Roy's Saratogo
to them to auction, maybe even two. One might be about 8 inches and the
other might be about 15 inches.
Maybe even a 12 inch barra, and a couple a large Aussie Bass , some 15 inch
salmon cats and large tandanus tandanus. Silver perch, Spangled perch,
Mouth-all-mighty, Neo. Ater, and 15 or so different bows.
Sorry to those who can't come.... :-)#
