Thank You to Friends of Sport Fishing, Patterson Lake ChapterMembers of the Waterside are very appreciative of theFriends of Sport Fishing crew who volunteered to takethree boat loads of Community and Team Members out cruising and fishing on Patterson Lake just outside Lanark last month. The boat trips were thoroughly enjoyed by all

who had the opportunity to attend. The first two crewsenjoyed a relaxing cruise along the shoreline of PattersonLake, admiring the cottage properties that surround the3.6 km long private lake. Many were skeptical about theweather, as the morning began with a BANG of thunderand lightning but the skies cleared just as the bus pulledup to the lake.

The following day, all the avid fishing gentlemen awomen headed back up to Patterson Lake to catch Bwalleye and bass. Many fish were caught and the neven had to be used to pull in the biggest fish of the dcaught by Keith Eddy. A special honorary mention to Lu

McConnell who was named the “Bait Master” as she kefishing lines baited for Team Member Alison Lunn aCommunity Member Merton Glenn.

Community Members can look forward to more boatand fishing trips on Patterson Lake as the Friends of SpFishing have asked us to return again soon!
