Matt I may need a surf pole. 

I may need one too...I haven't fished in so long, I am not sure where it is !

 

[Mbailey33]

I have 2 extra 10footers if theyre needed.....not a StCroix by any means, but they work well.

I have extra equipment I will bring as long as it fits in the holders.

I haven't seriously fished the surf in twenty + years.

If my busy schedule allows me to pull myself away from, ummmm, ummmm, whatever it is I do, I can either be in for fishing or as an official weigh master. Will see when a date is picked.

The date is chosen, Be There!
I can feel the love, there will be BBQ, Breakfast, lunch, dogs burgers, etc. Come on everybody, lets do this. It's all about fun and fishing, it's what NJSWF is all about! If you've never surf fished before, this is the time to try!

I'm Impressed

  Big John requested this post so here it is.
suggested site ( Sandy Hook ) Everyone knows where it is and might of fished there, It has many beaches to chose from from the entrance to the tip.this time of year all the beaches are open to fishing. Some more popular then others. Plenty of Parking, Open at Sun Rise typ. 5am. closed at sun down, Easy access to all beaches. Tides   There are 2 covered Picnic Pavilions Called Guaddian Park with Tables and BBQ grills. first come first served. might be able to reserve it. But since this is a informal group ( RIGHT ) Just one happy family outing.   there is no group fees involved as with a organized Group outing.   Called rangers station earlier no fire on the beaches or BBQs I would suggest if this is the site picked that the The Pavilions be head quarters, Fish where you may HONOR system  
it can be all set up and all the stuff can be set up and in place very early. with coffee and scrapple going  . This also is a great family place also  there are many things to see and do. a search of Sandy Hook Gateway National Park will show and tell of it all. I might also suggest a meeting of the minds maybe at the Hook Pavilion, like advance registration, Payed in Advance, Food costs. BYOB    is allowed in The National Park not in state parks   Prizes if any for the first time. I would ask the local bait shops for a sponsorship or prize. these are just my suggestions. And if anyone wants a full tour of The park it can be arranged for that day. From Gun emplacements and working historical Light House and Museum.  Have to check the date if any other events or festivals are on that date At Fort Hancock . they would just add to the day.
Hope this is what you asked for BigJohn.
Photo is one of the Big guns being restored by a Militia they hold tours on weekends. it is Battery Gunnison just one of many places of interest . May of you probably have passed it all not knowing the history and its Mission From WW 1 to the Nike era  Cold war. how the Sate took over and then turned it over to The Nation Parks. There is even Overnight Camping now do not know much about that yet TENT   CAMPERS   one thing would be cert en In the summer The Plague of the usual insects. think its called DEETVILLE    Almost forgot ( Poison Ivy ) Skunks Fox Raccoon's bird watching

IBSP.. central

[overbite]

SHNP.. Central also 

[ped579]

I vote for IBSP, like Rod said it is central to the guys south as well.  Plus the access to the beach is much better as their are parking areas 23 of them to be exact.  Pick your beach that is close to a parking area and go for it.

We have used A10 before for NJSWF events and it worked out great.  From there anglers can fan out either by foot or by beach buggie and fish tons of holes and cuts.  A10, is one of the better holes as it has been very productive for years now especially at night.

As for me I have a walking problem (2 artificial hips) if Sandy Hook is chosen I will have to bow out.  But,IBSP with its many lots I like a few others will have a better time getting around.  Besides I have a beach buggie permit to drive on the beach.  If any one wants I can ferry those in my situation back and forth from a lot to the surf.

Happy Catching

Paul

[Ms Fish]

I will go where ever and when ever to fish with you guys and if needed I'll carry Paul if I have to so he can fish with us! Nuff said!!!!
