Special Guest: Oliver Solis

“Fishing Advocate”

Oliver is an outdoorsman at heart and an avid angler. He is a 4th generation angler who grew up on the water and whose only passion is chasing gamefish with light quality gear.
Oliver’s passion for the sport dove him to work with several rod and reel companies over the years, beta-testing products and providing feedback to the developers, designers, and engineers.
In 2017, Oliver took that passion into developing his own quality fishing products as the industry did not satisfy his demand for rods that would have good action, combined with strong backbones, while maintaining the desired overall lightness. Oliver makes subtle, but key adjustments, to the existing tackle so they are able to catch more fish with less effort.
His drive for perfection gave birth to the Fishing Syndicate, ideal rods, tackle and apparel designs that provide what all anglers desire and demand: quality fishing products at affordable prices!
Oliver makes his living in the legal industry where he has built a reputation for helping large corporations with their Legal Technologies needs to litigate matters while mitigating costs and risks. He has worked in the field for 30 years and is currently serving as Vice President of Business Development for Harbor Litigation Solutions, a company he helped build from the ground up.

Membership Renewal Time

It’s that wonderful time of the year for early membership renewal. 

For those who renew in November or December you have an opportunity to win two tickets to the San Diego Anglers awards banquet. Two tickets will be awarded at the November meeting and two at the December meeting. If your name is not drawn at the November meeting then it will be placed into the December drawing where you will still have a chance to win.

Membership dues are $90 for entire family. $90 for single adults, 16 years and older. $90 for juniors, 15 years and under and without a paying adult.

You may have noticed that dues have increased by $10 for each class of membership. These Dues are used to pay for all the extras, such as the meat for the Lake Morena campout, the SDA summer picnic, the Holiday Party, increased insurance costs, and much more. Because of rising costs, the SDA Board voted to increase dues.

Come see the membership gang when you come to those meetings and renew your membership.
