INDIANANGLER

Greeings everyone,

Would all anglers who are registered on IA, and reside in the North please stand up!

I'm putting together a list of all members who whould like to participate in the North Zone Angling Contest. Individuals from other zones are also welcome to participate.

The date/venue will be decided based upon general consensus in a democratic manner. Voting. However, if the decided upon location is not centrally located, then adequate time to be giving for making travel arrangments/babysitters/permission from the wife etc. etc. etc.

Lets honor someone with the prize distribution ceremony; how about Babli, I'm sure every who has been to the pump house will agree! (Errrr.... Prashant?)

You can either post your Aye and Nays or pm me.

Tight Lines,
Dhruv

wat about points for turtles?

couldnt resist a dig at that.

if anyone can manage to hook a turtle at pong or bhakra, he deserves to win by default... but we'll leave that decision to TK ... err what say you toitle sabi?

Sorry to break up your little party. But Ms Toitle and I don't see each other any more. The end was fast and painless. Just a few tears in the rain.


Since I still have my extra heavy duty toitle rod around I am will be happy to put it to good use. Aaron, Sam and IG start running, now!
