He is an avid outdoorsman and has been for a little over a decade. His drive for fishing led him to start exploring different species in high school. Fishing for anadromous fish, especially steelhead became his favorite species. He guides in Alaska during the summer months and in Ohio for steelhead during the winter. Chasing steelhead in Washington, Alaska, Michigan and Ohio has helped him grow as an angler and a guide. He is a passionate angler and enjoys helping others gain enjoyment for the sport he loves.&nbsp;This should be a great meeting. I hope to see you there.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Rod Raffle: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; G Loomis 9\u201d 6\u201d Classic Steelhead Spinning Rod GLX STR 1141S<\/p>\n<p>Meeting&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Firehouse Grille and Pub<br \/>\nLocation:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2768 Stark Drive<br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Willoughby Hills, OH 44094<br \/>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Phone: 440-943-4983<\/p>\n<p>Time:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Meeting starts at 7:30 PM<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><b>March Board of Directors Election<\/b><\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions regarding becoming a board member, please call Les Ober, our OCBS Secretary, at your earliest opportunity.We will hold our 2019 Board of Directors Election at our March Meeting.
