Babcock Dam Public Information Meeting
gengberg December 10th, 2009
Hi everyone,
I talked to Chris James from Dane County Parks on this issue and this meeting is important because shore fishing on or around the dam may no longer be allowed. We need Fishing voices there to hear our side.
Thanks,
Jim Pankratz Yahara Fishing Club
