NEXT MEETING
MARCH 14, 2023
SPEAKER
Steve "Herbie" Herbeck
In a recent poll by his peers, Steve was voted one of the top ten muskie anglers of modern times. This living legend has been obsessed with muskie fishing since he was 12 years old. Steve became a muskie guide in the Madison chain in the 1980s, then moved to Boulder Junction in Vilas County Wisconsin for a few years. He bought Andy Myers Lodge in 1993, working seven days a week for 20 years to build Andy Myers Lodge into one of the premier fishing destinations in northwest Ontario.
In 2013 Steve "retired" back to full-time guiding with summers at Andy Myers in addition to spending some time at his old stomping grounds of Vilas County and the Madison Chain. Always interesting and opinionated, come meet the living legend, Steve Herbeck.
We will be meeting in person at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Bloomington and will also Zoom the meeting.
