I might take my skeeter out their im not sure yet we might be going on my friends yellowfin 36 footer all depends on if i take out my boat or not i might have a charter so things depend on that. What kind of boat will you be in? You cant miss us if its my boat or his yellowfin. The YF has a big tuna wrap on it and my boat you cant miss because you can see all my dang electronics lol theirs a lot on her for a bass boat.

Right now the stripers are going back and fourth down and up the beach from The barnaget inlet to north as sea grit,nj aroudn brielle area. Just troll along those beaches youll hook up. Their was a monster blitz the other day at the seaside peir all 30+ pounds and up
I will be there... 10 year vet of the whole deal... missed last year & I am ready to get after it!
I will get there friday around noon.
26' John Allmand Express Hartop (old ugly pos.)
I will have pleny o beer & plenty o beads (70 dozen with 10 dozen big ones for some real fun)
Feel free to raft up or come aboard.
Do you raelly get to see hooters? lol if so...Propbenders boat would of been great for this day! he just sold his 38ft fountain quad 300 engine boat the wrap on the boat was a HOOTERS wrap with a hot lady on it
hahaha, yeah, well i'll just say that in life i find it rare that my grandmothers belief that I 'will be beating the girls off with a stick' is accurate, but this weekend I actually have to say no more hot girls on my boat...ready to buy a raft at toys'rus and put someone in it!
Mike, shoot me that PM, I will actually be out on the boat tomor, I will give the area to the north a shot...
the article has me a bit worried or confused...is it just saying that only certain boats with that pass are allowed in the area, or can you simply tie up to other boats like I was told by a friend?
I plan on showing up sat(stuck working till 2 on sat) with some friends with my newly repaired boat. I was thinking of launching from elk neck, I don't know of anywhere else to launch into/near the canal(I'm in Newark). This will be my first time at canal day, so I'm unsure what to expect.
OK already, I have never been to canal days, but after reading about it before hand, I thought someone who was there would report back regarding the debauchery. There must be some stories with 70 dozen beads.
very late updating this but that was an awesome day!
We went through a great many beads, next year need more water baloons, and better water guns.
Heres a terrible quality pic but it gives you an idea of what was going on...atleast on my boat.
Huh, how 'bout that, were you cooking hamburgers and had a bossy asian chick demand some from you? Some of that group was also from our boat, though the above mentioned chick was just a friend of a friend.
I assume you got to watch the spectacle when the boat to our North was taking on water and the CG had to set up a pump and then tow them out.
Maryland/Del Canal Day!!!!! This weekend!!
