Sorry to hear that Doug. Hope you're back in action soon.

I just wanted to thank you guys for putting this trip together. The fishing could've been better, but it's not always about the fishing. sometimes you need to just enjoy the day. we had some good laughs.. Congrats to all the winners in the drawings. and congrats to my buddy mikey Topaz with the pool fish.... To think, he almost did'nt go :eek: Gotta love those last minute walk on's :)
Thanks again, I'm looking forward to seeing you guys again soon,
Jimmy

What Vinny said, Plus My side of the boat had to fish under the boat ALL day. Would not turn boat to alternate sides...
Other then that, I believe we had a fun day, a little catching , but not much keeping...BIG thanks again to Dave and Capt. Fran and to all those that donated some very nice prizes...

Thanks Dave and Fran for putting together another fun RFA trip. Dave congrats on picking a day that the weather didn't suck even if it took two tries. I had a good time, got lucky and won the raffle rod. Can't wait for the next one.

Re: RFA-NJ 4th Annual Fluke / Seabass Fish A Thon Trip
 

Thanks to Dave, Fran and anyone else who took the time and went thru all the BS to put this trip together...twice. Had a great time, lots of fun, lots of laughs and in spite of the lovely boat ride :rolleyes: we caught a good amount of fish! Just a great freaking day!

PS, I understand the owners of the boat have rules that must be obeyed but before reading the mate the riot act about how playing the radio is offensive it would have been nice if the Capt. found out if anyone was actually offended...I felt terrible for the mate and I really enjoyed having the radio on in the cabin.

Thanks to Dave and Fran for putting this trip together. It was great seeing some old faces bringing back great memories working deck. Vinny i couldnt agree more and thanks to the mates for their great efforts. Congrats to my boy Mikeytopaz for the pool fish and outfishing me again! Was great to make some new fishing companions as well.
