OQUOSSOC –The Rangeley Region Guides & Sportsmen’s Association will hold its monthly membership meeting Thursday, Feb. 15, at the clubhouse on Old Skiway Road.
A potluck dinner will start at 5:30 p.m., followed by a brief business meeting. This month, RRG&SA will welcome David Howatt, the new DIFW regional fisheries biologist for the Rangeley Lakes Region.
Although new to the position, Howatt is no stranger to the area.
Born and raised in Farmington, he graduated from the University of Maine in 1986. He has worked as a full time biology specialist for DIFW since 1992, before assuming his current position in November, 2017. Howatt will talk about current fishery management strategies for the state’s large lakes and small ponds. He is looking forward to hearing questions and concerns from those in attendance. As always, the public is invited to attend these meetings and educational programs.
