I have a couple friends that run a charter out of Brielle, NJ. Anyone want to do a late May trip for striped bass? These guys are GOOD!!! They'll put us on fish and keep us on 'em. They run a six pack, so it would work out to about $100 - $125 a piece.

Here's a link to their site:

No, you're not the only one. I thought it might be a misspelling but no, it's another thread about fish. :lmao:

Man I wish I could move vacation around and crash on the couch at one of the crazy people I know out east....that would be a trip I could get into!

You know...that's not the first time folks have made that mistake! From now on, they're "STRIPED BASS"!!!!!

And Jeff, I've got couches! C'mon out!!!

If I could switch around vacation I would believe me :cheers:

When, exactly in May? I have one week of vacation (May 15th-21st) and might be interested in flying East for a few of those days! :yes:

I've never been ocean fishing.

I thought the same Sara!

I don't have an exact date, but that should be peak time for the big'uns!!! 4 more will fill the boat, and I can give them a call and set something up.

Cool! I'm not sure what else I need to do that week...I know Kare wants a garden this year, so a bunch of yard work is in order....if the snow's gone...lol.

I would love to get in on this but.... I ahve a stupid school I have to go to in May in lovely Fort McCoy, WI.... :mad:

Damn, I wish I was in Philly already...Mike, go ahead and book me for may 2012

GO! GO! GO! I can get things done with you out of the way. (and I'd like some nice fresh filets!)

I am in. Went to Asbury Show today. Catching in the park already too. Small guys 10-15 pounds on clams. I am also thinking some tuna is in order this year.

Sounds like a great trip.

Can anyone do Tuesday, May 31st, or Tuesday, June 21st? Let me know asap!

Ooooops!!! Tuesday, May 17 is also available, and look what was going on at that time last year!!! C'mon, Scott....you can make it!!!!

I'd be on this trip for sure if I wasn't starting a new job about the same time...Maybe next year it will work out for me to go :cheers:

Remind the boss that your services were contingent upon getting that day off....must have slipped his mind! :lmao:

I'm in for the 17th!!!

Ok.....I just talked to Capt. Jerry, and we have a tentative booking for 5/17. I told him I'd confirm the date asap, so if anyone else wants in, let me know. So far, there's 4 definite, 1 likely, and 1 possible (C'mon, SCOTT!!!). It takes 6 total to fill the boat.

Lets fill the boat with fish, not lies!
NO :wamma::wamma::wamma::wamma: ON THE BOAT!!!

Cool! I DO have that week off as vacation, so 5/17 is doable. Let me check the airfares as I'd have to fly out on Monday to be there Tuesday. Where's the nearest big airport? This charter supplies all the rods, reels, and fishing equipment, right?

They supply everything....unless you have a particular rod you'd like to use, which I doubt....ya landlubber!

I just locked in the date with Jerry, and May 17 it is. Although a tip isn't required, these guys do this for a living, and it would be nice if we could throw them a few bucks. I was thinking that if everyone wants to chip in $25 a piece, I'll buy lunch for the trip. If that sounds cool, let me know, if there's any other ideas, I'm open to suggestions as well.

What time? I might come up monday night.

Mike I've been readin' this string and droolin'. As much as I'd like to do this I'm afraid my arm won't be ready for the hook set I'd be throwin' just to be sure I didn't lose one. I set the hook on a 4 pound bass as if it were a 40 pound salmon LOL

Cool....I was just talking to Jason, and thought that we may all be able to get together for dinner at my place Monday evening, and you, him, and Scott may be able to split a room to save some $$. We've got about a month to get everything worked out, though.

Yeah....and I'm not sure the rest of us would be ready for the flying bunker snags either! :eek:
