Dr. Melanie Stassainy is the scientist that scientist report to. She is regarded as the most learned ichthyoligist in the world today. It is a special honor to have her because with her schedule and area of expertise, she just doesn't lecture clubs. She's more akin to scientific lectures to other scientists. Having her is HUGE!!!! You might have seen her exploits on the Congo River in a recent National Geographic special.

The final speaker needs no intro. Ad Konings!! This is going to be an event that you wont wanna pass up. ..USA Fishbox is going be sponsoring Ad Konings!!!
