That's great you have an interest in getting a line. I will pm you with the Presidents phone number to join the Rocky Local of the ATA. There is a meeting tonight (April 15th) at 7 pm in the Leslieville Elks Hall. Then you can get a membership to the ATA. Have you guys taken the ATA Trappers Course? If not this is a must before you get a line. If you go on the ATA website there are course dates and there is also a course schedule for the Dave Unger College which runs a more intense condensed version of the week long one. Contact Jim Mitchell 780-349-6626.
Once a member you can place an ad in the Trappers mag. to see if any lines are available. Also networking at the Local meeting may produce something. Hope to see you tonight at the meeting!!!
