Gander Mountain Fish Fest Celebration

[Captain Tom Straus]

Well the season is rapidly approaching & all ice is gone. We spent the weekend at The Gander Mountain (Huber Heights OH) Dayton OH Fish Fest Celebration and what a wonderful turnout. We wish to thank Tom Dietz(Store Manager) for includeing the Erie Drifter Staff and also want to Thank all the Gander Mountain Staff for a wonderful Fish Fest Celebration, You people were awesome. I would also like to say that the local Gander Mountain public were some of the most loyal and personable people that I have ever met. We will be there every year from now on, If you wish. Also we really enjoyed meeting Mr. Jim Morris, Outdoor Writer for The Dayton Daily News and look forward to fishing Lake Erie with all. We have decided to Book the Dayton Hunting & Fishing Sport Show for January 8-10 2010 at the Dayton Expo Center. This has been a great experience meeting all of you wonderful people and hope you enjoyed the Walleye and Perch fish fry that we will also provide every year. This was the 1rst Sport Show The Erie Drifter Staff has ever encountered and we really enjoyed the experience, Sincerely Captain Tom Straus
