Hi All,

I just wanted to share a little about NJAS' 2016 Fish Farm Tour to Florida.

A group of 11 of us recently toured just a few of the many fish farms, wholesale operations, and grow-out / transhipper facilities located in southern Florida. Our host, NJAS' own Chuck Davis put together a jam-packed 3 day itinerary taking us from the most basic of operations all the way through to a private tour of Segrest Farms given by Segrest President Sandy Moore. I just want to point out that one of the benefits of belonging to a fish club are knowing the right people. Chuck was able to get access to this facility because the folks attending the tour were coming under the NJAS group.

Enjoy some of these pics at https://www.flickr.com/gp/141882492@N06/01G400. If you want to see more pictures from the trip, or get in on some of the group buys we're putting together from the places we visited, you'll have to come out to an NJAS meeting (bet you saw that one coming!). Details for the next meeting:
