Skolmann, same deal work gets in the way sometimes. Catch with you next time.

Anyone on the fence for whatever reason be advised that as important it is to support the groups that fight for our fishing rights and for me the RFA-NJ Chapter we understand that not everyone can make it for whatever reason. For those that can these trips have really turned into a fun time on the water with great people, super captains and sometimes even a fish or two. The fundraiser, raffles etc add an extra mantra to the day and we certainly appreciate everyone who makes the attempt.

Donation made a few days ago! Have a great trip guys!!

Jeff,
This isn't a $500 a plate political fundraiser, it is a $100 fishing trip that has been very successful in the past. GREAT PEOPLE, GREAT TIME.

Everyone who participates does so of their own free will.
You fish every week for $65, if that is your budget Great, but please don't piss in the cheerios if you think it's too much....

I gotta tell you I'm a little surprised at this, especially coming from you who has been kicking ass lately...I would think you'd be more supportive?:confused:

IT"S A FUNDRAISER, TOO MAKE MONEY FOR A VERY GOOD CAUSE, The RFA. That's were all the money goes. Thank God for guys like Dave who have the passion to continue things like this, without these men we are doomed.
Capt. Ron Santee/FISHERMEN/ RFA Member and proud of it.:)

Bite was tough. Bluefish were a pain, but a few stripers were caught. Capt. Ron and crew were great as always. Thanks to all those who set this trip up and can't wait till the next one.

A GIANT THANK YOU to all whom attended, to Capt. Ron and crew, to all the supporters whom donated to the trip, to Dave for putting so much of his time into the trip. THANK YOU!!

Re: RFA-NJ 4th Annual Striper A Thon Trip
 
As Capt Adam said a huge THANKS to all that attended. Cant say enough about the effort given by Capt Ron, Chris, Robbie and mike on a day where fishing was tough to say the least. We traveled the bay, NY side, NJ side and inbetween trying to get a bait bite going but it wasnt meant to be. A long ride Ocean side to the"rocks" found some bird life and scattered schools of blues with some bass. As soon as Ron got us in place we got a few hook-ups but then the "Armada" of boats followed and put the fish down. Every boat from MI North to the Hook were there so you knew it was the only game in town.


Congratulations to the prize winners and Jeff (Saltlife) on the pool and high hook honors. Guy was on fire at the pulpit when we did get on the fish!

The Hatfield's I mean Greg Heiser clan made their usual strong showing of support and took the 50/50 along with some bucktails. Well deserved. Vinntastic took the Rod/ reel combo (this guy just is lucky no matter what) and the Criswells won their share as well. Some great open trips were awarded and everyone on board got a Jersey Jay Croc.

I really want to thank our sponsers who donated prizes. Jersey Jay, Bucktail Boys, Mike @Sharkbites, Max @ PrideFishing, Pete@ Atlantic Bait and Tackle, Chad from Tagged Fish Charters, Chris from K-Kat Sportfishing, Jack from the BINGO. This really took the edge off from the tough fishing and everyone had a great time.

Also Jeff Shirtguy who once again provided the RFA-Nj Boat Banner and printed Hand towels for all.

Thanks again, I will find a better way to pick a date that the fish recognize next time. hope you all had a great time.

Next up Fluke! Keep you posted
