This, our 7th year with some changes and twists so please pay attention.
The entry fee is $50 and will include your meal and an event T-shirt. We are capping the event at 200 people this year as camping space will be limited. Again, this is not a tournament. This is a kayak fishing event to promote camaraderie and grow our sport. We create awareness for and generate funds for NJ Heroes on the Water.
The Kayak Fishing Store and Dad's Place Marina have offered their property for us to camp on. This will allow us all to launch and fish freely as we do at JBay and Salem. This will minimize setup and transport over the weekend!!! Dad's Place has offered their large building to host our dinner and raffles as well. Carry in, carry out is the rule here.
Pay Attention. If you have a question, post it on this forum or on our FB page. If you call the store or my cell, this is the only advice you will receive.
