Boundary Waters Musky Club Annual Expo/Banquet Invite

[IM Musky Time]

Hey Guys,

Wanted to post an official invite on the forum if anyone's interested in a winter road trip to the U.P. Some slight arm twisting possibly could also lead to an ice fishing expedition during the trip. We have a great lineup this year, and the more the merrier.
