Pre-derby fishing meetup aboard the Marilyn Jean IV sailing out of Sheepshead Bay. See here for more details. $60/person, though, hopefully less if we can get enough people. All gear/bait will be provided by the MJ IV.

Derby opening party at Dream Tackle (673 Manhattan Ave., Greenpoint) from 7-9pm. Register and pickup derby packages, membership cards, T-shirts, buy some plugs from Robert, throw back a few brews, eat some smoked fish, meet us and others. Sounds pretty good to me.

i was actually just talking about trying get a group together to do a pre-derby party boat out of Sheepshead Bay. This will most likely take place in mid-September.

Are there any Fall 2011 Meetup dates?

Once the derby starts we will have weekly meetups on Saturdays for the duration of the contest. We’re also planning on having “unofficial” type derby meetups on Wednesdays or Thursdays during the derby at different locations. Working on getting a pre-derby boat trip out of Sheepshead Bay on the weekend of September 17. More info on that this week…

Sheepshaed party boat sounds great. Anyone want to split a Montauk Tuna charter trip?

I’m an avid fly fisherman but rarely see others throwing flies on the East River.
How many fly fishing entries are there in the derby?
I’d love to have a fly fishing only meet up!

we’ve had a few over the years, but last year I think there were only three guys—John, Preacher, and Shane—to hold it down.
