As you guys already know sadly due to the current circumstances we had to cancel our spring tournament. Our friend Scott Motto over at Bergen Bay Dock reached out to me about doing a one day charity tournament this year only. We talked about the logistics and how we could make it work.
Here is how it will be.

We hope you are all well and safe during these challenging times. Suffolk Marine is open for business, including the tackle shop. The shop is currently allowing a limited number of customers inside - hopefully that will change soon. There is a buzzer outside the door which can be used to alert to staff of your arrival. The phone number to the tackle shop is 631-669-2222.

The May Club Meeting has been canceled; no decision yet regarding the June meeting. The derbies  have not been canceled, and the tackle shop is available for weigh-ins.

Sadly, we have decided to cancel the Spring Tournament, but we are considering a members only BBQ. Please leave feedback regarding that option.

Finally, at our last meeting, Jim Glimore from the DEC showed us the official smartphone app from NYS. In typical government fashion, the regs on the app are not updated for 2020 (currently reflect last year's regs). I wonder what this cost us tax payers? Be safe, and get out on the water.
