Point Pleasant Canal

[Papasown]

Scotty, I was told that, about the dandilions, many years ago, when I was a young man, and the wise old man was very old. He also told me to go to the beach and dig sand crabs, keep them in a pail with ocean water and a lot of sand, and add more salt water when it gets low. His pail was so heavy he just left it at the bulkhead at the Manasquan end when you could go out to the end on the west bank. Sometimes I would bring him some fresh crabs, cause I know a lot of people had their hand in his bucket.................... me included,lol.

The bluefish that come through first are real skinny, and kind of long looking, but they fatten up quickly. When it starts, you could catch 100 in no time there, with tin, only 10 years ago. And don't be too surprised to see a tiderunner weakfish there in May, but I hope you take a picture, and let her swim again. Thank you for that. Papa
