Took a ride to the boat today...
« on: March 12, 2012, 02:57:55 PM »
Johnny Oz and I took a ride to the boat today to get a few odds n ends done. After completion we went to the Belmar Municipal Marina.

Checked out the fuel dock.  :P
The gasoline was posted at $4.10 a gallon. Mind you, this is 89 octane not 87 (regular gas) but still, that's a big chunk of change. I don't even want to know what it will be come the summer months.   cfzd

Drove down to the south end of the marina to check out the progress on redoing of the boat ramp. It is coming along great. Was told by the job foreman that they will be done in plenty of time for it to be used when the fishing season gets underway.

Saw a dozen guys on the dock fishing for winter flounder. Watched four flounder get caught (and released) in the very short time we were there.

Only a few things need to be done to the Irish Ayes before it will be ready for the season. With the weather the way it has been it should be a great year for fishing.

Best of luck to all this year.  chrz

 TT^Started on mine today too. Looking forward to a good season.
A good day of fishing is better than a bad day of fishing. A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. That means work sucks!

Ugh is right! Looks like I will be investing in a few 10gal gas cans and taking advantage of the $0.10 discount I get at Crystal Point.

Hauling gas around to save a few bucks is alot of work, I gave up on it.

Yeah Fred, be careful.  Sam at Brown's Point told  me that's just about the only rule that he has zero tolerance on.
