NJFishing.com Celebrates 20 Years!!!

Congrats on the 20 years, Gerry. Not an easy thing to do these days with all the other "stuff" than can so easily influence a forum.

Rock on, Captain.

Gerry,

Congratulations on the 20 year anniversary of the site, an amazing milestone. While most fishing sites have come and gone, NJF has not only grown it's evolved into a community. I remember way back when the site went down, I think everyone was going through withdrawals not getting their daily dose of NJF. Your vision, hard work, perseverance and diligence has changed and in many cases touched lives which there is no greater accomplishment in life. Aside from the information and reports which initially attracts people to the site, the feeling of community is what keeps us here. And that's more of a cultural challenge which is borderline impossible to cultivate especially in the form of a web site but you've managed to do just that. NJF has really become the GOLD STANDARD for all fishing web sites to emulate. Like everyone else on this thread, I'd like to thank you for enriching our lives with NJF and thank the many members who contribute in a variety of ways to make this so much more than a fishing site. Every now and then people get it right and Gerry my hats off to you my friend, you nailed it! Look forward to the next twenty years being as great as the last!

Gerry,

Having been here since the very beginning I can honestly say that this site has become the only site I go to and post on now.

When this site started in 1997 I was in college and I needed a fix while I was up in CT for the fishing in NJ. This site did that. Reports, updates, etc were there regularly and by the time I moved back home little more than a year later, the site was growing. We had a great time with the CEO/NJF Flukeoffs on the sea hunter and sea pigeon, best memory was LAB wearing his pink bikini bottom OUTSIDE his shorts lmao

Fast forward to 2004, and the start of the charter business - this site was the first I became a "sponsor" on and to be honest, every penny I've spent here has been worth it as I've gotten countless charters and open boat fares from my posts here.

So keep up the good work Gerry, I wish you nothing but the best!
