STILL ROOM FOR 3 MORE

Once again NJFishing.com brings to you the LAB Memorial PUOSU VIII. Alex (MVP) and I will be hosting it and we will have Wilson on hand photographing it. Proceeds with be donated to the Wells family.

If there are any sponsors or individuals out there who would like to donate a door prize, please post it here. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated.

Everyone is on their own for food and drink but if you’d like to bring something for the crowd, post it here so everyone knows who is bringing what.

The Rules:
1) If you have to ask what PUOSU or LAB is, you have either been living under a rock or you’re not a true NJFer.. Stay home you ain’t coming on this trip. If you ask on this thread you are out.

2) If you ask questions already covered in this thread you are out too, SO READ THIS CAREFULLY.

3) Format this year is same as last. If you don’t like it tough! If you have any suggestions keep them to yourself or feel free to run your own trip.

4) Fare for each trip is $125. That includes fair, tip, bait (greens / whiteleggars) and pool. 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 and mail 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.

5) 1st trip is on the Ocean Explorer in Belmar on Saturday 12/12/15 and will be limited to 45 people. This is first come first served so it’s whoever responds to this post first. No wining if you get shut out. We will keep a short waiting list in case someone who reserves a spot drops out or does not pay… When you reply to this thread to reserve a spot please indicate how you intend to make payment.

For those of you who might have rode the short bus to school, this is how your reply might go… “I’m in and will send Pay Pal” (or check)

6) Payment is due to me for the Ocean Explorer trip by 12/7/15 . If it's not paid by then, you are out and your spot will be turned over to the alternate list hacks. Hence the name Put Up Or Shut Up (PUOSU)... We ain’t tawkin post marked here... It's got to be in my hand.

7) Only one registration per person and that person must be a member of this site with a least 25 posts. Don’t even ask if you can register someone else PERIOD!

8) All past PUOSU winners , DROD, JLRotary, Scotty, Rob B, River Rat, Loudsprtfsh1 are automatically granted a spot on the Ocean Explorer. If they want in they must sign up here and make payment by 12/7/15.

9) 2nd trip will be for the people with the 20 heaviest Blackfish on the Ocean Explorer to fish the following Saturday, 12/19/15 on the MIMI and compete for the 2015 PUOSU VIII crown. We will also keep a short waiting list in case a few of the hen pecked winners wives won’t let them fish 2 weekends in a row. So make sure and weigh your fish even if you think you don’t have a shot at the final 20.

10) Boarding order for the Ocean Explorer trip will be the past PUOSU winners first, followed by remaining members in order of their sign ups.

11) Boarding for the MIMI will be by heaviest to lightest fish from the Ocean Explorer trip. Payment for Mimi trip is $125 and will be made at the boat. If you say you’re coming, you better be there.

This ain’t no flag football game, its full contact. You can pick your spot but when we board but while we are fishing, it’s every man for himself. Mugging, skating, bullying are encouraged and to be expected.

All updates with boarding order and payments will be made on this thread so be sure and stay tuned here.

Cancellations for weather will be made at the captain’s discretion and refunds will be issued if we don’t sail. Check back on this post the night before or morning of to get cancellation updates.

42 so we still have room for 3 more

So here is the drill for Saturday for those of you not familiar with how this trip is run:

- Boarding for Ocean Explorer will start at 6:30. You can put your other stuff on board before then, but no rods in any rod holders until your name is called at the dock to board. We will leave as soon as we have everyone on board. Boat leaves no later then 7 no matter who is missing. If you've RSVP to this trip as being in, there will be no refunds if we leave without you.
- Please try and be early so we get can leave and beat the crowds to the grounds.
- When we announce your name you will be permitted to board and put one rod in a pole holder to reserve your spot. Please store your other rods on the upper deck so they don't take up room or interfere at the rail when we are fishing.
- As you are boarding you will be given a tag with a number on it on a zip tie... Don't loose this tag like of lot of knuckle heads have in the past.
- When we are heading back in, choose one fish, wrap your zip tie tag around the base of your fishes tail so it will not fall off and walk your fish back of the boat to be weighed.
- Alex and Cadishackfishing will be officiating the weigh ins and recording the weights.
- Top 20 weights are invited to the final on the Mimi.

One important note here.... If you have a keeper, even if you don't think you are in the top 20, weigh it in... Often times someone who qualifies in the top 20 can't make it for the final on the Mimi, so we work down the list in order of weight.

Please be sure to bring some extra money for 50/50 and a door prize raffles. See Dales on the boat to purchase tickets.

Looking forward to seeing everyone, good luck and thanks for coming out and supporting a great cause and lets have some fun.
