Mark Martin
By Scott Hunt
All of us at the Lake Saint Clair Walleye Association are thrilled
to announce that our February guest speaker is none other
than Michigan’s own Mark Martin. Mark is arguably the most
successful and most renowned professional Walleye fisherman
from the entire state of Michigan.
Mark is going to conduct a seminar that should last
approximately one hour. His seminar is going to be on trolling
Lake Saint Clair. Specifically, he is going to touch on the
effectiveness of trolling body baits on Lake St. Clair. And even
more specifically than that, he is going to spend a considerable
amount of time speaking about the fishing success that can be
had while trolling body baits on Lake Saint Clair at night time.
Here in our great state of Michigan many regard Mark Martin as
Mr. Walleye at night. He has earned this nickname by averaging
more than 600 Walleye per year in the 6 to 12 pound range. The
key to Marks success is a history of walleye fishing developed
over three generations of Martins. He intends to share some of
his expertise and nighttime tactics to all of those in attendance.
Some of Mark Martins career achievements include the
following:
-Qualified for 18 Professional Walleye Trail Championships
-World Champion of the first PWT championship held in 1990.
-Currently 43 top 10 finishes in AIM, PWT, MWC, tournaments
and Governor Cups.
-Over 24 years of professional tournament fishing.
-The most PWT championships since its inception in 1990
-Has fished in over 200 major tournaments.
-Currently is the 8th highest money earner among those
fishing the professional Walleye circuit.
These are just a few of the seemingly never-ending list of
career highlights owned by Mark Martin. Quite frankly, there
are just simply too many to list them all.
Mark Martin has also accumulated a rather fine list of
extraordinary sponsors. Some of these sponsors are illustrious
companies such as Navionics, Church Tackle, Abu Garcia,
Berkley, Plano, Fenwick, Northland, Daiichi, Motorguide,
Lowrance, Rapala, Lund, Mercury and Optima just to name a
few.
By now, you get the idea. This is an
excellent guest speaker. Not the type
that everyone can sit and listen to
on just any ole day of the week. This
is going to be a special meeting, so
please do not miss it. And take this
advice; if you want to make sure you
get a seat, make sure you get there
early. There is a good chance that
this will probably be a standing room
only type of crowd. Our meetings get
called to order at 7:30 so don’t be late.
I cannot wait to see you all there!

PRESIDENTS CORNER
by Dave Marcelewski
This month, I was thinking about what
subject to write my article about. It took
a little bit of thinking. But finally I made up my mind.
I would like to challenge every member in our club, to
make it a point to fish at least one of our monthly derbies.
Win or lose? Who cares! It really doesn’t matter. I fish
these derbies mostly just to put fish in my freezer. And
talking fishing with the other club members is always
welcomed.
When I fish a derby, I come home very relaxed and the
bonus is fish in my freezer. It is one of the most pleasant
ways to spend a weekend.
And then there is the weigh in. Again, win or lose?
Who cares? But it is nice to win once in a while.
If you are lucky enough to catch a fish, than bring it to
the weigh in. If you do not catch any fish but still show up
at the weigh in, then the real fun starts.
All you have to do is show up. We always have food.
Maybe pizza? Or hot dogs and freedom fries? Or broasted
chicken? It is always a welcomed surprise.
And then there is the comradery of being around people
that share the same interests. You will definitely walk
away with the freshest fishing reports around. Maybe
find out about a new technique? A new fishing lure? Who
knows? The opportunities are endless.
We have five monthly derbies starting out in April and
ending at the August picnic. Please put these events
on your calendar and make it a point to fish them. Or
just show up to chit-chat a little bit about fishing. That is
always welcomed.
This past weekend I figured
that I would have the lake to myself for a change.
And what to my eyes do I catch with my gaze,
a small little flat bottom with trollers plugging away.
When I saw them flip a fish I knew right away
these two bundled anglers were Masters at play.
They plucked the fish so fast and with ease,
I knew that my company must be on the fishy’s.
This is the spot that they dredged for their gold.
They worked so adeptly that they did not look too cold.
Once they bagged their limit they packed up in a flash,
started the primary and were off with a dash.
The little flat bottom and anglers swept away,
with wishes of “good luck” to me in my sleigh.
It is visions like this that make winter so sweet,
to know that the spring will soon be at our feet.
So Fish away, fish away, fish away all.
And thank goodness for this January thaw!
YEARS PAST- 1981-1985
By Dave Wilemski
In June of 1982 our club collected back
issues of the outdoor magazines that members
brought to the meetings and distributed them to
local area hospital waiting rooms.
Homer “Mr. Muskie” LeBlanca was our guest
speaker at the March 1985 General Membership
meeting.
On 5-5-1985, young Brian Lamphier caught
a 15” walleye with a red crawler harness while
fishing on Lake St. Clair.
February Merchandise RAFFLE
By Richard and Marialaina Benson
Professional walleye angler Mark Martin is going to
be our guest this month and we’re featuring some
of the tools he has used to make his career so
successful. We will have some Church planer boards,
lures he recommends and what would a fishing raffle
be without at least 1 or 2 rod and reel combos? A
few other boating items will also be on hand as we
gear up for spring from our winter (or non-winter) of
discontent!
My wife, Marialanina, and I would like to thank
everyone for their continued support at the
merchandise raffle table. We’d love to hear your
suggestions or comments. If there is an addition
item, fishing or not necessarily fishing related, you
think club members would desire to see on the table,
please feel free to let us know.
Thank you, Rich and Marialaina
This photo was taken Sunday morning January
8. We ended our morning with 7 nice eater
walleye. Six males and 1 nice 23” female.
The two photographed had a nice mess of fish
with one going over 8#. Think spring!

Thank you Denny Lantzy
By Scott Hunt
The night of January 18th was our General Membership
meeting, and our guest speaker was none other than Denny
Lantzy. Denny gave an informative and
educational seminar in which he spoke
for about an hour, and the audience of
over 200 members and guests gave
Denny their undivided attention.
His seminar covered ice fishing on Lake
Saint Clair and Lake Simcoe. Denny
was extremely thorough and touched
on every aspect of ice fishing from first
ice until last ice. He spoke about all of the equipment and
tackle he uses, as well as the importance of attention to
detail.
Afterwards, Denny hung around for a little while and
answered questions from the inquisitive members off to the
side of the meeting hall. Denny stayed until it was very late
in the evening, and took the time to answer each and every
question
in a very professional manner.
I can honestly say that it was my pleasure to work with
Denny and schedule him as our guest speaker. And I hope
that I am given the opportunity to work with him again one
day. I would be honored to see him as our guest speaker
again
in the future.
In short, the January meeting was an outstanding meeting.
And Mr. Lantzy played a huge part in making that possible.
So on behalf of the Lake St. Clair Walleye Association, I
would like to say Thank you Denny Lantzy.

ULTIMATE FISHING SHOW WAS A
GREAT SUCCESS
By Ron Sharp
I want to thank everyone who helped to make the show a
great success again this year. We added a lot of new things
to the booth and all the pictures on the display board were
last year events. We sold 300 motor raffle tickets and got 6
new members and that’s what we are trying to do. We gave
every boy and girl a crawler harness and asked them to
drop us a line to let us know what they caught with them and
it should be interesting to see the responses. Thanks again
for the help and please give Bob Barnes the same support
for the Texas Holdem events he has coming up.

WHEN I FIRST MET BOB GALVIN
By Rich Benson
I attended my first LSCWA Christmas party in 2008, we were at Gino’s then
and the dinner was excellent. It was a packed house and it seemed like every
member had brought their favorite dish or dessert, including us. We had
brought some homemade oatmeal cookies, and Bob liked them so much he
hung out by the table until I came to retrieve the platter. He told me he had
been standing there for nearly 30 minutes waiting for the owner of the platter
to come forward just so he could get that recipe! We chatted for a few minutes
and had a laugh or two, he was such a nice guy I knew I had to share the
recipe with him, he wouldn’t let me not!
Bob Galvin Born: January 26, 1938
Place of Birth: Detroit, Michigan
Death: January 14, 2012
Place of Death: Royal Oak, Michigan
Rest in peace Bob
Here is the recipe for the
cookies Bob enjoyed:
1/2 cup butter, room temp
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs, room temp
2 teaspoons Kahlua (vanilla works,
but who doesn’t like Kahlua?)
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups oatmeal (quick cooking kind
or old-fashioned)
1 package Nestle cinnamon chips
1 6 oz. package of dried cranberries
1/2 to 1 cup chopped walnuts,
optional
Beat butter and sugars till creamy,
add Kahlua and eggs, beat well.
Add flour, baking soda cinnamon,
mix well. Add oats, cranberries and
cinnamon chips, mix well. If mixture
is too dry, add 1 more egg.
Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10
minutes, or golden brown.
