But if you have such good sport fishing, why
don't your banquets have freshwater fish in
them?  I can understand that saltwater fish
would be expensive, but couldn't a couple of
your members who fish catch enough for a banquet?
If your group paid for their fishing licenses,
etc.?  I love trout.  Yummmm.  I don't recall
ever having freshwater bass, but sea bass is
delish also.
