Mike Kaufmann 40th

[PSH]

Mike, congratulations and thank you for 40 years of great service with the PAF&B Commission. That must be a very old photo of you in PA Angler & Boater magazine. You do not seem to age with the rest of us.

Thank-you Mike for your dedication to the resource. Congratulations on your long tenure on a job you clearly enjoy (for the most part at least).

Congratulations to Mike K.!
Many years and dedication in caring for, and looking out for, our beloved fisheries across the state, but especially in SEPA (a tough neighborhood for fisheries).

While we may not always agree on best management policies (which ARE debateable) for trout streams... Mike has brought decades of first hand experience to our forum with streams and their fish populations and his willingness to share that wealth of knowledge has been immensly beneficial to our PAFF community.

And, all that fish handling has kept him young - after all, it couldn't have been all the paperwork.

So, kudos to you Mike. Forty years is a milestone.

Mike,
Congrats! I remember hearing rumors a few years back that you were going to retire that year. I was really glad to find out it wasn't true. Fake news I guess!

Thank you to all for the congrats, compliments, and comments. I have been very fortunate to have such a diverse and interesting career.

As for PSH's comment about the photo in this month's issue of the Pa Angler and Boater magazine, it was taken at age 64 during the 2016 summer along the Susquehanna River following a boat electrofishing run.
