Maine Striper Fishing Report: Orvis Ultimate Fly Fishing the Surf Outfit Auction

Stripers Forever Silent Auction for the benefit of Stripers Forever’s Game Fish Initiatives

Many of the best known companies in the outdoor world embrace the concept of designating striped bass as game fish as a way of protecting a quality public fishery. Standing tall in the front ranks is the Orvis Company of Manchester, Vermont. Over the years, Orvis has given generously to many conservation-minded organizations, and their generosity has allowed us to offer another exciting auction opportunity to our members. These auctions provide us with the funds needed to carry on our efforts to reach our game fish goal.
This past Spring we offered a "fly fishing the surf" outfit, a combination of the finest gear from Orvis that is simply the best you can buy anywhere. The auction was so popular we've brought it back just in time for Christmas. Follow this link to the "Stripers Forever" website, then click open the attached Word document, and read all about this exciting offering. We look forward to receiving your bid. Complete bidding instructions are included in the Word document bid sheet attachment.
