Please let me know if I have missed your club with a dues payment or if I need to make a correction to your club’s payment.

Mark Taylor and I visited the Schuyler Tuna Fishing Club on November 5th to give our presentation on what the JCAA is all about and the current issues we are involved with. It was a pleasure to meet with this club and its President, Martin Brooks, made us feel at home as soon as we entered this club located in Kearney, NJ.

If you are still interested in having a JCAA presentation to your club, please contact me at my address below. Most likely, with the holidays coming up, we will not be scheduling JCAA club presentations until 2024.

Our JCAA presentation can be customized to fit into your club meeting schedule either by in-person or by ZOOM. We have done it about 20 minutes or about 45 minutes. We cover a lot of ground starting with the beginning of the JCAA, what the JCCA has accomplished, what it is working on today and the fishing challenges all of us anglers face in the future. We also take questions and provide answers to them to the best of our ability.

To schedule this JCAA power point presentation, I need to know the date when your club has its meeting, the time of it, the address of the meeting location and the contact person to arrange your meeting with me. I have been contacting clubs to schedule this power point presentation and I would appreciate your getting back to me at your earliest convenience so that I can arrange our meeting with you.

Our next JCAA General Membership meeting is on November 28, 2023, and it will be done as an in-person meeting and by ZOOM starting at 7:30 p.m. Note, JCAA will NOT have a General Membership Meeting during December.

I can be contacted at tothjohn@verizon.net or at (732) 656-0139 if you have any questions.
