SCHNEIDER SEES GREEN at GREENWOOD CONLEY ON FIRE!
The third New Jersey Bass Federation point event of the season was held at Greenwood Lake on August 29, 2010. Greenwood Lake, which is on the border of New Jersey and New York, was once considered one of the premier fisheries in the area. However, consistent eradication of the abundant submergent vegetation in the Lake has made fishing significantly more difficult. Regardless, and as always, the Federations best anglers found a way to unlock the puzzle and bring quality fish to the scales. When it was all said and done, familiar faces took the prizes in both the Boater and Co-Angler Divisions.

The New Jersey Bass Federation is an organization of chapters dedicated to the sport of bass fishing. Over the years, the Federation has progressed in scope from a bass fishing club to the voice of concerned anglers throughout the state.
Local chapters within the organization work with civic groups and communities to inform, educate and assist in environmental and localized issues.
The Federation produces an annual magazine, The Reel to Reel which serves to act as an annual recap of chapter contributions, events and tournament statistics. Other statistical information from the Federation record books is also included for reference.
The Federation has formed Junior Chapters for youngsters under the age of eighteen. These chapters are scattered from north to south and are mushrooming in membership. The goals of a junior chapter are to teach children the value of the outdoors and how to maintain an ecologically sound environment, as well as how to fish for bass.

Ethanol Issues - Highly important for boaters to read !
How this affects boaters:
There are two issues – one is a safety issue for those boats equipped with fiberglass gas tanks, generally those made before the mid-80’s. Ethanol tends to dissolve certain resins, which then find their way through the engine intake and coat intake valves, which makes them stick causing bent pushrods or worse. More important is the possibility of a gas tank degrading to the point of leaking. As anyone knows, gas is the bilge is an explosion waiting to happen....Read More
