Cod trips, Lazy Man Taug Trips and Golden Tile trips for April!
Unfortunately, we did not make our 1st scheduled trip for offshore cod and wreck fishing, for early tomorrow, due to a poor weather report. Offshore report showed 6 to 10 foot seas, which would be very uncomfortable. The mighty crew of the Gambler is disappointed as are the patrons who had signed up for the trip. But weather is something that we have to contend with this time of year. Thankfully, most of the folks were able to switch over to next Friday's scheduled trip --now we just have to hope for fair seas. There is still plenty of room on these upcoming trips, but don't wait too long to sign up.
