My wife grew up In Netcong. I know the Italian American club is still going strong.
I remember my dad and my uncle hitting the pier in long branch and coming home with coolers full of whiting. The would spend 2 days smoking
Them and then give out many to people in the neighborhood and the guys at the firehouse and American legion. Man do I wish I could catch some whiting and smoke me up the pop did in the old days.
