Hey There Fellow Barners,

It's that time of the year to start preparing for the upcoming fishing seasons. What i have to ask you guys is whether there is enough interest in doing the "Take A Soldier fishing" program that we did in the past. I have had quite a bit of interest here on base at McGuire AFB, with multiple people coming up to me and asking if we are running the program this year. So how about it guys?? its up to y'all if we do this... if your interested let it be known on here. if there is enough interest I'll set it up.

I'll need your names-
phone numbers-
type of fishing-
# of guys or gals that you would like to be joining you-
and the time frame you want to go fishing-


My email is [email protected] As soon as i get together enough guys for a list to post up. I will get it around base.

I also have this posted up over in dry dock but it keeps getting lost in the mix. I figured it might have a chance over here where it was before,

Thanks in advance

Hey Murph....great meeting you last night:thumbsup: The knucklebster sounds like a great time!! I'd be honored to attend and present another trip to the winner:thumbsup:

The soldier that won last year's trip emailed me back, he's returning in august and we're gonna go then.

Looking forward to getting some big catties with ya in the delaware!! And you WILL be on board with me this year a few times:thumbsup:

This is a great idea, I run a 31 pursuit.

So, how does this work? Do we communicate directly with the soldiers? If they are inexperienced I want to wait for a blue bird day. I can take 2 or 3.

Happy to help those who protect us.
Thank you Merf!

Merf, just wanted to say thanks to you and all the boat Captains out there willing to hook a soldier up with a fishing trip, good on you! I am an Airman stationed at McGuire AFB and I've been on the receiving end of one of these trips and can't begin to tell you how much they mean to us!

Great Idea!

I only saw it posted on the offshore section. I have a 25cc and don't have the gear for any big palagic's offshore, but I'd be glad to take 3-4 with me on a day trip to one of the reefs for flounder/sea bass. Any weekend starting 6/26.

Brother, I'd love to fish w/you, or anyone else willing to honor our active servicemembers/vets. What would you think about taking out a couple of the "heroes of Haiti"? I was one of the team leads that helped to sustain the airbridge after the earthquake.

I also have some vertical jigging gear so if you want to give some BFT a try I have no problem shareing my gear:).
