Our featured speaker for the January 30th meeting will be PRSC member Jamie Gold. He will discuss his September 2018 trip to Belize in Central America where he targeted Bonefish, Permit, and Tarpon.
Jamie first got into fishing as a kid in Pennsylvania. There was a nearby lake and his father had a john boat with an electric trolling motor he used to chase largemouth bass, sunfish and blue gill. He also spent a fair amount of time stalking stocked trout streams. After being out of fishing for a few years, he got back into fishing while in graduate school at Penn State and has been hooked ever since.
Jamie has been a dedicated member of the club since 2002. He has served as a club board member in the positions of Buzz Editor and Club Treasurer. Jamie is an outstanding ambassador of the club leading club trips, writing articles for The Buzz, and volunteering for our numerous community outreach efforts educating others about our love of fishing.
A lifelong spin fisherman, over the last 10 years he has crossed over to the dark side of fly fishing, and is rapidly getting addicted to chasing smallies on it. More recently he has been hearing, and succumbing to the siren song of shallow water saltwater fishing. He has also become an accomplished fly tyer of late and willingly shares his techniques and flies with fellow club members. You don’t what to miss what promises to be an informative session from an enthusiastic speaker.
