Windy day for Hackensack Children’s Fishing Contest

  The wind was ripe for wake board sailing, but we were trying to fish.  We never even set up the canopies because the wind was so fierce.  Not enough to make everyone stop catching fish and having fun though. Families still came out to drop a line, and many a small fish were found. Unfortunately this week, we have no photos. Technology failed us and all the images were lost. We will however list the winners for all to see their names.  Apologies to all the winners and the families as I know it is fun to see the pictures and tag them for family to see.
