When I was an active Fishing Tackle Dealer, a small ring of my customers and myself founded the
Niagara River Anglers Association [Back in 1982] and as an association, we collectively managed to make
many improvements for the fishermen and recreational users of the entire
Niagara River of which I still remain proud of the Associations past.
