| Earlier today I had the pleasure of addressing the kindergarten classes at Arbor Vitae-Woodruff School District in Vilas County Wisconsin. The school mascot is the Musky so every year these little ones spend a few days studying our favorite fish. This is the second year that I was brought in as an "expert" to talk with the kids. I did a short presentation covering some of the habits and general info of muskies and then the kids had their turn at asking questions. These children asked very intelligent and interesting questions. Heck they even stumped me on one when a little girl asked how many fins they have and I missed by one until the teacher pointed to a giant musky replica they have hanging in the library and suggested we count them. Ooops! These little kids absolutely made my day. Very pleased to be able to help contribute to the education of your youngest fishing generation.

| ALWAYS take time to help kids. If you want the future to be a better place they're the key. Years ago I read a little saying that said "If you don't take time to show children the right way in life there's always someone available to show them the wrong way." It stuck with me. |

| I taught kindergarten for three years. Best and most exhausting:) three years of my teaching career.
When you tell a 4 year old they did a great job you can see their heart swell up. It was very rewarding.
It was an honour to be able to help set these little learners on the right path in their education. |

Yes indeed great time spent Doug. I never forget the "seminar" you gave me in the boat one day "go where the fish are, fish real hard, if you throw a bait near a fish that's hungry he might bite it" Priceless! |
