Capt. Bob and the Gambler to host wounded Vets on June 5th!
 
I wanted to take a second to recognize Capt. Bob and the crew of the Gambler for their very generous offering. Capt. Bob saw the Heroes on the Water - New Jersey Chapter booth at the Saltwater Expo and expressed that he felt that we just never do enough for our wounded warriors. I couldn't agree with him more.

He wanted to do something for them. So he, on his dime, is taking a group of about 10 of them, from the Lyons VA Hospital, out for a relaxing afternoon of fluke fishing on his regular trip on June 5 from 2PM to 6:30PM (rain Date June 7th). These vets benefit greatly from activities such as these. You can see it on their faces when they transform to smiles through the day at one of these types of outings.

I, and a few of the NJFishing.com members, will be there being personal mates for these heroes. This is not a private charter. There will be regular fares on board. So, why don't you come out and share the day with us? I would love to see the boat get railed to thank Capt. Bob his generosity.

What a fitting announcement to make on Memorial Day.

Tip of the cap to Jon, Bob and crew of the Gambler for supporing the people who support all of us.

The weather looks stellar for the Wednesday afternoon trip on the Gambler. Please come out and show support for our Hero's.

Here are a couple of pics for the outing we had over the weekend in Wildwood. The one is a group shot with the Hero's and the volunteers. The other is a Hero and his service dog. Great people and a great time.
