Childrens Fishing Clinic Sachuest Point 9/17

[DZ]

Just wanted to touch base with those of you who were interested in helping out at the Children's Fishing Clinic at Sachuest Point on Saturday Sept 17th 9am to 12 noon.
The following members expressed interest in helping out - please let me know if you're still able to attend: Notaro, Clammer, Throwing Timber, Redlite, RIRockhound.

All gear (rods, reels, bait) is provided by Fish & Wildlife. We generally bring some of our own gear for the "plug casting station". I'll provide old popping plugs for the kids to use. The plug casting station will show the kids various types of plugs and explain their uses and what kind of bait fish they imitate. The kids then get a chance to cast and retrieve them.

The second station is the "bait fishing station" - basically a sinker and scup rig baited and cast and then the kids wait for a bite.

Items needed are sand spikes, snelled scup hooks, 1 and 2 ounce sinkers.
A cutting board for bait. For safety all hook barbs should be crushed.

Volunteers can/should bring your own gear but by know means do we expect you to let the kids use it... but this is the fall and there is a real good possibility that some bass/bluefish will be around so you may get a chance to fish before/after the event. Sachuest Point has all sorts of good surf locations and many a cow has come from there.

After we wrap up maybe we can meet at the SWE and grab a pizza from across the street.

So let me know who's still on and your contact number in case of inclement weather cancellation.

Thanks again.
