Ryan Hope your there!!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Well this whole bit about being 3 hrs away with no car makes it a little hard..... I'll see if I can make it work out though.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Just signed up,you will see 2 email addresses,one for confirming and one that is linked to my pay pal

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

I know where you live anyway. LOL not a problem


Thanks for coming.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Well we have hit the 40 mark:D Decision has been made to keep the sign up open for awhile longer. Gambler is 90 ft and we can squeeze on a few more and all still have a comfortable space to fish.

RFA-NJ thanks each and every one of you for caring and understanding what is at stake for our fisheries. Quite a turnout AGAIN.

Part of the door prize raffle will include these great items:
- Aquaskinz Jacket
- Aquaskinz Bibs
- Kevin Bogan Fish Poision MH E-glass Rod w/ RFA-NJ 2011, striped bass and American Flag Decals
- Reel and Rod (w Seat) Combo from NS Tackle shop in Brielle.
Actual specs on these to follow.

Lets hope the weather is on our side and again THANKS to all for participating and Fishing Industry Donators. IT MATTERS!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Dale I sort of have an issue with adding more peeps! It was supposed to be 40 and now you want to" sqeeze" a few more in!! I don't think thats very fair for all who commited early
and where expecting to fish on a fairly uncrowded boat!! 40 is more than enough on a 10 hr. trip!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Codbuster: PM sent. Give me a call. Thanks, Dave

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Just 6 days to go... I'm Stoked for this trip... Great boat, great crew, and fellow NJF'rs!!!! :eek: LOL....Dusting off the poles and making rigs :D

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Weather isn't looking that bad I think!!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

vikings only...

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Sorry for the lack of communication lately. Been without power both work and home since Sat afternoon.

Updates: Trip is officially SOLD OUT with 40 Anglers. THANKS to all involved, you make our life easier running these trips and RFA-NJ appreciates the support.

As of right now this trip is totally a GO. Looks like some good seabass and general bottomfishing and looking forward to whatever Capt Bob has up his sleeve.

If anyone is in the Point Pleasant area today or tomorrow and could pick up some of the raffle Rods, reels from two local PP tackle shops please send me a PM. Fran and I have both been pretty tied up and it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and I will update further as required.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Awesome news! Looking forward to the trip. See you Friday.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

I hope the bottom dwellers are biting tomorrow!!! See everyone in the AM!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

good luck guys, will not be there unfortunately but catch em up!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

I know trip leaves at 6this and boarding is based on signup.

Can someone explain boarding / rail position choice procedure?

Thanks. See you all tomorrow.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Yes, based on the sign up and once you board you pick your spot. A little friendly advice to all, bring some dramamine. Read from another thread conditions were pretty rough, lots of casualties but fishing was good. Don't want to miss out!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Jay, It better be like the last trip, 100 degrees, no wind and flat as a pancake or I'm in trouble.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Should be a rocking trip. :D :D

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Good one, Capt. Fran!! LOL!! :D

Sam, just start drinking with Chris and Steven and I, you'll be fine. :D

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Jay has it right but to add to it here is boarding procedure:
I hope to start the boarding call no later than 5:15 to 5:30. If everyone is there we can start earlier but please dont show up at 4AM, 5 to 5:15 is plenty of time.

Do NOT put anything and I mean anything on the boat before your name is called. that goes for coolers, clothes bags, extra rods etc.
Couple of helpful hints:
1) Dont overload with gear, inside or outside the cabin. We are providing food and soft drinks so you shouldnt need bulky food coolers. Weather may be a tad sporty so extra breathing space in the cabin is essential. Bunks will NOT be open.
2)Be patient and polite in the parking lot. It can be tight so dont drag all your stuff out to the back of the boat. Bring a rod for your deck spot and a bag for your cabin spot. You can get the rest later.
3) You know your spot in the order so dont crowd the back of the boat if you are a higher boarding #.


Once I call your name you can put one rod in the holder on deck of your choice. Please know your rough spot before hand to speed things up. Then find your spot in the cabin.
No reason it can't go smooth and quick. Once everyone has boarded we will start selling raffle and 50/50 tickets. Boat will handle the pool, boat rules.

See you in the AM. THANKS

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Just so picky, See ya at 4:00:)

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

When I show up I will need help with two very large coolers. One will be the drinks the other will be the food.

thanks to anyone who helps.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Capt. Fran I will be down early with Dave, I am meeting him at the rest area on the Parkway.

Will do what I can. Thank You and Dave again for all yous are doing.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Ok Guys How much weight will I need to get to the bottom? :confused: 3oz, 4oz, 6oz, 0r 8oz or am I going to need more.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

I am starting with 8 and hoping I don't work up to 20 :D

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Also If anyone has green crabs I would be glad to chip in. I forgot to get them today and the bait shop. :D

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Shit 8 is the largest I got. :)

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

That will work fine since you were not planning on leaving the cabin anyway.:eek: If you do venture outside though you may want some 8,10 and 12's maybe even a 16. I have an order in with The one and only SINKERMAN so we can share.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

Well, I have not landed a fish yet so you might be right about me being in the cabin.

I do not think my arms can lift that kind of weight.

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

I have a few extra 16 oz sinkers if needed!!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

!6b ozs should be fine I hope!!

Re: RFA-NJ Fall Fish A Thon Sign up
 

come on Fran!!!! We are going wreck fishing,bring some weight.
