Hello all! We are alive and well over here at NYMI 69. Some participation or volunteers to help organize and run any events or meetings from members is always welcome. The Chautauqua chamber of commerce did mix up some dates but its been removed. Our meetings are always open to the public but our outings and events are now Members only. We are not a tournament only Chapter. We are focused on conservation initiatives and many other fishery management topics that support the quality of our fisheries. There is a working contact number for both the President of this Chapter and tournament director. An easier way for updated info is for members (ALL OF WHICH RECEIVE MONTHLY NEWSLETTERS, if your email is up to date) or call a board member directly. We have ONE remaining outing this season for Chapter 69. We will co host our chapter challenge with 70 on Saturday October 4th on Waneta lake. This is a members only event. Reach out to offer your time. Thank you Katia Rivers President NYMI Region 3 Representative 585-668-2550

Had a great evening trip out of the Oak Monday night. Everyone on the boat had a chance to real in their own king. Family was from Arizona so this was a rare, exciting experience for them all. Super fun seeing all their smiling faces and the excitement of the young ones.

It was a nice treat to see her softer side. No wind, no waves.. few kings on a quick evening trip and a beautiful sunset as always.

Yes Landon and his Dad made it out after a long day of fishing Conesus. I don't think they had much luck w the tigers tho.
