Fishy Bucks Auction

What are Fishy Bucks? Well, Fishy Bucks are points given out to MASI members over the course of the year for participation, like submitting to BAP and HAP programs, volunteering, writing for the Darter, etc. Everyone gets some, because you also get them just for coming to meetings (including coming to this auction). So, show up, hang out with friends, enjoy some laughs, get some fish.
