Spent the weekend looking to acquire some gear to resell at Hi-Mar show. Raritan Bay anglers on sat and another one in NY on Sunday. One of the first guys I see on Sat at RBA is Richie Tropics. Tells me he has something for me. Head over to his table and he hands me 2 brand new Fin-Nor surf combo's. These were really nice. Must be 300 bucks worth of gear if I bought it at store. Tells me to sell them at show and donate all the money raised. Class Act. I also ran into to Jerry from OMT Tackle and he donates nice bag of his custom buck tails. Met member TomKat who I never met before who was selling some nice rods. He recognized me and sold me nice cod rod, Blackfish rod and customer spinner at ridiculously low price to help the cause. Bumped into Eric Mortgageman who tells me will be donating pair of brand new boots.
I am always amazed put not surprised how people seem to step up to the plate whenever someone is in need.

Personally I have budgeted 1000 dollars to cause. Have spent about 600 bucks worth of gear so far. Have 400 bucks left to spend so if you have some fishing related stuff to sell that I can turn over for a profit let me know. Will be open to any donations as well . My goal is to raise at least $2000 dollars so I can give at least 1000 dollars to each of the recipients
