CLOnj Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Access to the rip area is closed. Ranger told us that they have been dredging and therefore standing at the water's edge is unsafe. Apparently it will be closed for at least two more weeks. See you in the spring gentlemen....

squidlips Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 All I know is that K lot is closed. this has to be the most disrespectful and disgusting thread I've ever seen posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passiton Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Is North Beach still open? The last lot is closed, starting where the pavement ends and the dirt area begins. Is that K lot? You can park just before it in the last paved lot on the right and walk on to North Beach, but canly head so far towards the end before you have to stop. NOBODY here has a pass to blow out someone else's candle in order to make theirs shine brighter. TLDig[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLOnj Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 The Rip or do you mean False Hook ?? Technically, I suppose, its the false hook based on what the ranger said. Silly question, but why is it called a false hook. I tried searching for the meaning of this but nothing really came up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levari Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Simply because it gives you the false impression that this point is the tip of the hook...The rips are the northern point of SH.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budrow Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 I always refered to it as false channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bigdeal Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Nah................the Hook stemming from the bay side.....the Fasle Hook is actually at the bottom of the bend.....on the ocean side would be the Sandy Hook Channel. "Law enforcement’ is not something sovereign citizens seize from police officers. It is a societal function that citizens delegate to civil police. In so doing, we do not abdicate our own sovereignty, nor our duties as citizens. Ultimate responsibility is still ours. When those we hire as our “Protectors” are either unwilling or unable to perform that function at the critical moment, there is no law, nor standard, that says we cannot perform it for ourselves"........

JimmyJam Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I heard the Hook started getting productive later the year, but its was mostly dead from August - October. We fished it hard, and aside from the occasional short, skate, or blue, caught nothing - even during heavy winds when bunker were pressed up at the false rip. We speculated hurricane Irene did some serious underwater restructuring that had a pretty big impact on productivity. That said, I'm guessing the dredging has nothing to do this and this has more to do with something else (like bridge maintenance)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
