YNN is coming to Point Breeze tomorrow Tuesday, April 30 to do an on camera interview.  Keep your fingers crossed, right now we are still in 3rd place:  Cape Hatteras 11,998, Grand Lake CO 10,042, and Point Breeze with 9,511. 

 

Mike Waterhouse, our county's sportsfishing coordinator will be meeting the YNN reporter, Rose, here at that time and I'm sure they'll travel up to the Point and shoot some video. I don't know if she'll want to talk with any Charter Captains but she will be at Captain's Cove at 11:30 am so if you're interested feel free to come "hang out"!
