Sorry I got delayed stating this post, a litle sore the past few days :-/
I'm not sure the time or distance some of you guys are from Jersey Shore area but I would like to start a list of guys that are within striking distance and see about putting something together for this fall, I would do earlier but I don't think I can handle a boat until then.
So you snaggers that are in the area post here and we can get a list together, see how many boats on trailers we got and plan something. I know there are a bunch of V20 guys in Jersey alone, not many are active on this site though, maybe we can change that.
And Tin and Phes I think this is close enough for you guys to, to do something in Raritan Bay area even if you launch from the Staten Island side, if not let me know

Willy, I'm 2 hours east of NYC, about 1.25 hrs. east of Phester. I consider it more New England than NY out here. I'm a lot closer to RI than NYC.

It's quite a ways to Jersey Shore , but hey. maybe phes and I can make the trip some time.............................................. .................................................. .............some SM's would surely entice us :) ;)

Two hrs ain't to bad Tin, how long would it take you to tow to Staten Island, I'm fishing along there all the time from where I launch at Atlantic Highlands, I can be at the Island in about 25 minutes. If you cross the island and go over the outer bridge crossing it puts you about 20 minutes from the Highlands. If we are going to do a weekend thing might not be too bad, I was thinking also about the opposite tow your way.

willy count ,e in i launch at atl highlands also but that 23 dollar fee is pissing me off i think there is another ramp down there but i have to find it and im not talking about leonardo

Theres one at Keyport, it's smaller but if you are fishing that end of the bay it's a quicker run to Staten Island and the rest of that northern bay area, Leonardo is just for small boats and the guys there are mostly the tin boat crowd fishing shallow and near the Driscoll Bridge etc. It has a short ramp area and a very steep drop off, low tide unusable except as previouly mentioned by small boats. Where are you towing from?

Sign me up. I don't know if I'd trust my trailer to NJ from MD, but I have in-laws in Cliffwood Beach, so I get up that way a few times a year. The wife and I both grew up in Matawan so for me to drive up is no big deal.
