Maine Moose!
F
loyd Stever, member of Local 195, Syracuse, NY, has
been entering the lottery for a Maine Moose Permit
for 32 years and he finally got picked in 2015. Brother Stever
and his buddies took 12 hours to pack out. He bagged a
moose that was determined to be 5½ years old and 945 lbs.
with a 46” spread and 13 points. Brother Stever is a 45-year
union member who has served as shop steward and Executive
Board member of his local.
After 32 years of waiting, Floyd Stever gets his moose
with a 270-130 grain Franks bullet.
Father’s Day
Catch and Release
E
arly retiree Luis R. Caballero had a great Father’s Day fishing with his
family in the Gulf of Mexico in Tampa, FL. Brother Caballero, member
of Local 10, Paterson, NJ, caught and released a 20 lb. common snook. It was
his first time fishing in Florida and he hopes to do it again soon—preferably
during snook season so they can take some home.
