Thank you NJ surfcasters and Striper Surf Day at CT March 22nd

My mind is a little blurry and I think I might be growing a mullet….but let me try to remember it all because it all seems like a blur now at midnight as I am writing this. Four consecutive weekends in NJ, first an awesome Surf Day, followed by Berkley and Asbury shows. Then this weekend my son and I were at Somerset where Tommy and Ray joined us today. I just got home but Tom and Ray are there at booth #10, so if you guys need to renew or subscribe, they have your free shirt and some other goodies.

First of all, I want to thank ALL OF YOU for your kind words via email and particularly at shows. When people say “this issue is the best yet” it just makes our day. We all try incredibly hard to make next one better than previous one and credit for this goes to Dave Anderson who has amazing skills of working with writers, all contributors and of course our creative genius Tom who designs the best darn publication ever dedicated to the surf. And I cant believe how many of you stopped by and told us how much you love our You Tube channel and FB page. And I thought that was only for cool kids

Yes, the shows take a toll on you. I mean, you guys know I have a unique ability to misspell every single word in the English language. But did you know we had Free SH*T at show this weekend? You didn’t? Neither did I until my (obviously) much smarter son pointed out just how low my IQ is by pointing at the sign that was hanging in our booth. And then you guys ask why do I always dumb myself down? There is a reason..haha

can I say I KVIT?

Continuing in our never-see-wife-and-kids tradition, SJ crew will be at Surf Day next Saturday, March 22nd at River’s End Tackle in Old Saybrook, CT. They will have new Tools of the Trade t-shirts for you guys attending. If you never been to the Surf Day at Rivers End you owe yourself to stop by and cheek it out. Not only is the shop one of the nicest shops I’ve ever been in but its a surfcasters dream ,carrying everything from soup to nuts to eels. The food is awesome, the crowd is great and friendly, and seminars are off the hook, and this year, the line up is truly fantastic. And its all free

    The “Free T-Sh*t” was just great! Sorry I missed that. Wanted to make the show, but had to much to get finished. Keep up the great work and putting out the best fishing magazine there is!

    I really have to get some weekends off. I’m missing everything show wise. I’m hoping you guys are going to film (video) some of these lectures for the Mag/ youtube/ blog. I really have to talk to the boss….
