A few Updates as trip date approaches:
As per rules on page 1 date to get paid up and secure your spot is 12/1/13.

Enclosed are payment details:
Fare for each trip is $125. That includes fair, tip, bait (greens/whiteleggars) and pool. Any money's left over will be donated to the family. Pay Pal is preferred for the Ocean Explorer trip but if you have to be a pain in the a$$ and can’t figure out Pay Pal, go ahead and write a check.
Paypal address is njfishing@aol.com send it as a gift not payment for services. Make sure to include your screen name in the comments section. Mailing address if you want to send a check is NJfishing.com 17 Montview Road Edison NJ 08837. Make sure and put your screen name on the check.

As per Charter masters rules if you back out of trip and a replacement is not found you are responsible to either find replacement or pay your fare.
Your Fare will include you into the pool. Separate pool is being run by M-Rod for high hook 2 man team competition. He will be collecting the separate pool monies for this side bet. With that being said when money gets involved people sometimes do not act appropriately. I am sure nothing like that is going to happen with this group. Any kind of cheating will not be permitted. No giving buddy fish to help them make the cut or sharing fish with members in team competition to help win pool. Any violators observed doing anything unethical will be automatically disqualified.
Remember what this trip is really all about. Helping a family in need, keeping the memory of our friend LAB alive and having a great time.

For sponsors and members of the site who want to contribute to the raffle please post so we can add your name to list of prizes. Free trip, gift certificates etc.. For those who can not make trip but still want to donate we will make your donation eligible for chance to win raffle prizes. Dec 8th is right around the corner so do not wait till the last minute to contribute to the cause.

If you are planning to bring some food or whatever please post so we can keep list updated.

All we need now is for mother nature to bless us with some good conditions and some hungry tog. Wishing the best to everyone and their families.
In one way or another we all have a lot to be grateful for.

Happy Thanksgiving.

OK Guys – Here is the drill for PUOSU on Sunday 12/8 on the Ocean Explorer in Belmar.

Boarding time is 6:30 and the boat leaves at 7:00… You can put your stuff on the boat when the Captain Bobby arrives but at 6:30 we will ask everyone to get off the boat with their poles and will reboard in order. If you miss the boarding call then you go to the back of the boarding order… If you miss the boat, well, you missed the boat and no refunds will be issued.

When your name is called you can re board and set up any place you’d like. As you board you will be given a tag for your heaviest fish which you will give to the weigh in team at the end of the trip.

You can only weigh in 1 fish of your choice and it must be a fish that you personally caught. For this reason each person must have their own bucket or cooler for their fish so no comingling fish. The fish must also be a minimum of 15 inches. All judges’ decisions are final.


Bring and use whatever bait you'd like. Green and Whitelegger Crabs will be provided.

The top 20 heaviest fish will be granted a spot on the Mimi the following Sunday to compete for the PUOSU crown. If for some reason there are not enough keeper fish caught to fill out 20 spots, the remaining spots will be filled in order of the original boarding list.

My suggestion is as long as you have a keeper, you should give it to the weigh team since some people who qualify with a heavier fish may not be able to make the Mimi trip and you could sneak in.

As far as bait goes, can we bring our own own or are we just allowed to fish boat bait

OK here is the ruling on bait. Fish with whatever you want.

Discussed this with my co chair MVP. They way we figure it is part of being a top Blackfisherman is choosing the type of bait you think the fish want. Limiting it to boat bait takes that important element out of it.

Also, we are still hunting down White Leggers... Don't have them yet but will hopefully know soon. We had a couple people from the trip looking that have so far come up empty, the main guy apparently hurt his back, so now Captain Bobby is looking too.

If anyone can get their hands on 4 busshels, please let me know ASAP and I will make arrangements for payment and or pick up.
