RFA-NJ Fluke trip with Shrimpman Sendoff

[dales529]

In no way is this an RFA-NJ highjack thread for the Shrimpman Sendoff however after talking with Doug, Capt Ron and Gerry the thought process is why not make it a private charter, kill 2 birds if you will by running the annual RFA trip to get more peeps and keep it our own,

Trip will still be Sunday June 26th on Capt Rons Fishermen.
Cost $120.PP based on 40 anglers includes Boat, Crew tip, Food, Soft drinks.
Raffle and 50/50 as usual
1pool for most shorts so Shrimpy has a chance!
Another pool for most rigs lost so (you guessed it) Shrimpy has a chance!

As this is a very short notice trip we need to know your commitment ASAP.
If we cant get 40 price goes up.
Please sign up below and if you do that means you ARE going!


Shrimpman
1) Doug Dirty Chimneyman
2) SaltLife
3) Caddishack
4) Gerry Z
5) Joey Da Fish
6) ALS Mako
7) Dockbuilder
8) Hammer



If we cant make it happen then go back to original "Shrimpman" send off thread

Cool with me

[shrimpman steve]

Listen all of you, I know it is not cheap (like me, said it before Joey or Doug:D) and very short notice, but I have met so many reel friends on this site that I would love to fish with one more time. I think it's a ton of work on the organizers part and it's for two good causes, the RFA and more important, getting rid of me:p.

I for one hope we get the quota we need to do this. I know it is hard to do on short notice. I for one am greatful for all the friends I have met over many years on NJFISHING! I am sailing on the fishermen on the 26th hopefully you can make it to support the RFA (and getting rid of me)!:D

I am very humbled by all of the kind (and not so kind:eek:) words from a lot of you. I hope to see you on the 26th!

Capt Ron, ready or not, Here I come:D

[tropics]

Well Steve Good Bye

[SaltLife1980]

Hate to say it but it doesnt look like we are gonna be able to charter the day. Its gonna be a free for all battle

[shrimpman steve]

Just like old times 😄

[SaltLife1980]

[dales529]

Yeah Jeff with 8 people the cost would be $450 PP so I would say the RFA-NJ / Charter thing isn't going to work. Oh well thought it may but not to be this trip.
I will schedule another RFA-NJ trip in August.
Free for all battle sounds like its what it should be. Hopefully Rons regulars return again after this trip:eek:

Gerry: please remove the sticky. After a short time I will delete this Thread so they can go back to the original?

[SaltLife1980]

Ill be on the August trip as well!

[thehammer]

What???? Remember Boys, it's not a Charter and I'm still running a business...Don't mind some ball busting which (that's what it's all about) but lets not get crazy with this.......

[shrimpman steve]

Ron. Would never do anything to hurt your business! No worries. Just lookin for one last trip on the fishermen before I head south.

See you Sunday.

[Jarhead]

I'll be in Keansburg celebrating a 3 year old's birthday. Wish I could make this trip, I'm sure it'll be a blast. Best wishes for success in your next endeavor Shrimpy

Sunday's weather looking great.

[jlrotary]

Steve good luck in FL. Hope to be there Sunday but no promises right now. The twins turn 2 this weekend and not sure what festivities are planned. Gotta say I enjoyed the trips we fished together, on the dirtyshrimp, fish monger, ocean explorers, Capt cal, miss montauk, Mimi, that Leonardo fluke tourney, etc. Good times with good people. Keep in touch and hope to see you Sunday.

Best of luck to you guys. I am preparing for my second Triatholan this year otherwise I would have tried to make it. Just do the opposite of whatever Shrimpman is doing and you should be fine. Best of luck to the Shrimpman
He will be missed but not forgotten

[shrimpman steve]

Thanks Alex. I will miss everyone on the board. I have made many friends that will last a lifetime

[SaltLife1980]

[shrimpman steve]

Thank you Jeff. I will miss everyone on the board.
