Potomac River Fisheries Commission Professional to Visit

THIS MEETING HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF PEOPLE SIGNED UP. WITH SOLs AND SNOW DAYS MANY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE OPPORTUNITY. SORRY. WE HOPE TO RESCHEDULE. 

It has been too long since we had a meeting. With the Christmas holiday and then the weather, we have not done as much as we would like. That changes with a meeting on March 12th. If you like fishing and are interested to find out how and why certain regulations are put in place for fishing the Potomac River, then come to the meeting to listen to a presentation and ask questions of Mr. Gary about everything from striped bass, crabs, catfish and anything else Potomac River related.

See the permission slip below.
