Frances fleet charter to George's in May - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

MakoMike · 02-01-2005, 07:31 AM

If any of you guys are interested, I'm trying to put together a charter on one the Fances fleet's big boats to fish George's bank sometime in May. This started off as a trip for members at Noreast.com but I though some of you guys might be interested. Before anyone gets ticked off, I cleared this with John before posting. We're still trying to pick the date, We'll be going (assuming the boat is available) on the date when the most peole can go. Right now it looks like, if we can get 30 guys committed it will run $200 a person, more guys less cost per person. The boat can fish 45, but we really don't want that many. I have 32 guys interested over at noreast.com. You can read the whole thread at http://www.noreast.com/discussion/Vi...topic_ID=30765

Right now the potential dates are May 1,2,3,4,5,6,1014,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22. If you're interested let me know which dates work for you, by either replying to this thread or posting over on Noreast.com.

work or no work Im in

Sorry I left out a few details. The boat will leave the dock at 10PM at night. We have a choice on the return, which will be determined by how many guys sign up. We can either get back to the dock at 10PM the following night or around midnight of the following night. Obviously the later we come back the more the boat costs. Since I'm trying to limit the cost to $200 per person, the number of people who sign up will determine how much fishing time we get. But at a minumum we should be fishing from first light until about 3 in the afternoon. Targets are cod and haddock. The dates I posted above are for the Date of departure, the return will be the next day.

Mr. Macey,
Any of the posted dates that you can't make it?

Guys,
Well we couldn't put enough guys together for the charter, so we are going on one of their regularly scheduled trips. We're going on the "george's special" departing the night of May 17th and returning the night of May 18th. If you would like to join us, call the Frances fleet office and make your reservation. They take credit cards over the phone. Hope to see some of you onboard!
BTW Frances Fleet phone (401) 783-4988.

Stripin,
Huh? The firm date is leaving on May 17th and returning on May 18th. We should be on George's for close to 12 hours. I'm in spot #104 in the pulpit.
