Nov 14th, Meet and Great at Beverly Triton Beach Park

Well, there are only two Meet and Greets left. The next Meet and Greet will be at Beverly Triton Beach. It is located on the Western shoreline of the Chesapeake Bay sandwiched between the Rhode River to the south and the South River to the north. It is a short beach launch. There are breakers made of rubble that helps make the launch and easy one. At that time of year, Rockfish will be the targeted species. The park opens the gates by 7am. So we will meet at 7:00am and launch no later than 8am. SurfDog recommends the Green Turtle for the lunch at 1pm. This is a car top only launch and it is free. The address is:

Thanks for taking the lead on this. Last year in Oct or Nov, there was an informal meet and greet there. I showed up late -- about 9:30 am. There were no more parking spaces either inside or outside the fence in areas that were not already marked with No Parking signs. I ended up going home without launching. In part because of that, I have not been back since. Are you aware of any ability to open up more parking for that day?

I have not been this year, but every time that I have gone, I have always gotten a parking space. I know the lot can hold at least a dozen cars. I will stop by there before the Meet and Greet and get a more eyeball information on the parking. If I can pre-fish there, then I will report that results too.

I seem to recall that when this place opened up there was talk of surplus parking being available outside the gate across the street or something. Seem to remember some going down to check out the park without going through the gate. It's been a while and I could be wrong, I was just following the threads on the opening of the park, do a search and you may find some info.

Put me down for both.

[PigPen]

Count me in for fishing. I've had some great fishing this year on the south river. Hopefully it'll extend to the main channel now that its colder.

Thanks for everyone signing up. I know some of you were not thinking of lunch, but you may want to stop by at least for a drink, before making your trip home. Why you ask? Well, it turns out that Bass Pro Shop was able to donate some prizes to hand out at lunch. The prizes will be for the biggest fish caught. Only a picture of the whole fish on your ruler is all you need for your camera or cell phone to take. This is very informal and it was nice of Bass Pro Shop to do this. I will be taking pictures of the winners with their prizes to pass on to Bass Pro Shop as a thank you. Depending on how many prizes are given, there will be first, second, and third place prizes also. All prizes will be awarded at the Green Turtle. We will try to award the prizes early, so those who are not staying for lunch can leave if they choose to.

So far we have 9 kayakers signed up in this early time frame. I suspect we will have more as the date approaches. A week before the meet and great the long range daytime temperatures are expected to hit 77degrees!

[Rockchaser]

I'm in for both.
