19 charter and private boats took 75 6th grade Saugatuck Middle School students on a fishing excursion on May 21. As a reward for participating in the salmon in the classroom program, the Michigan Lakeshore Charter Boat Association and Allegan Ducks Unlimited arranged this outing for the students and then cooked the fish and fed all the students and captains after the trip. The students caught in excess of 90 fish with the largest being 19.5 pounds. Gift certificates were given to the largest fish caught by a boy and a girl. In addition each student went home with a rod and reel donated by Cabelas.

I would like to thank Jim VanBrocken (Jim Bobber) and Dennis Eade and the crews for taking thier time and coming down from Holland to help out. Your assistance was greatly appreciated.
