February is the month we dream about trophy stripers while preparing all the gear we need for the fishing season.  Come out to learn from fellow club members.  Please bring your own favorite gear to share your expertise so we can learn hands-on skills from each other.

Reel Maintenance and Repair

As always, local expert Martha Moulton of Surfland Bait & Tackle will be on hand to demonstrate how to clean up your reel and do basic repairs.  Bring along a reel that needs some attention and learn from the best.

Rod Building and Repair

Kevin Henrich builds a custom rod each year for a raffle to benefit the Juniors Program of PISC.  You may not want to build your own rod, but will probably need to repair a guide or two on your favorite rod sometime.  Kevin will teach you how.

Bucktails

James Jewkes likes tying his own bucktail jigs.  He will have a vise and materials you can use for tying a few of your own.

Plug Building

Paul Sarkisian will have his plug-building materials and will show what is involved in making your very own lures.

Please join us on Tuesday, February 19, 2019 for another great angling seminar. Our monthly meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month at PITA Hall on Plum Island (8 Plum Island Turnpike, Newbury, MA.) The doors open at 6:45 PM. Dinner is served at prices that will not break the bank.  The club meeting starts at 7:15 PM. After the meeting, we have a seminar by a featured angler. Seminars are free for club members; there is a $5.00 charge for non-members. Membership information is available here.
