See Life Paulagics is attempting an inshore pelagic for Delaware and Maryland,
similar to the one we ran out of Belmar, NJ recently.  The New Jersey trip was
very successful racking up 4 Thick-billed Murres, Razorbills, Red-necked
Grebes, Black-headed Gull, and Iceland Gull.  Other targets are Black
Guillemot, other gulls, grebes, loons, waterfowl, etc.

Our date is Sunday, February 27, the day after our normally scheduled offshore
trip.  WE NEED A MINIMUM NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS ASAP TO MAKE THIS TRIP HAPPEN.

The probable itinerary is to run an 8 hour trip that would cover the inshore
waters from the Lewes Breakwater, past Indian River Inlet, and hit Ocean City
Inlet.  We might head farther south, depending upon the time and birds, and we
might go a little farther offshore to hit some underwater structure.  Most
likely, though, this will be similar to the Belmar trip where we spent most of
our time just a few hundred yards from the beach, taking the opportunity to
check out jetties and any birds that looks suspiciously good.

The trip is scheduled to run from 8:00 AM to about 4:00 PM, so that anybody also
doing Saturday's offshore trip won't have to get up too early in the morning for
the this trip.  The cost is $80.

If you would like to sign up for this trip, please let us know ASAP.  The boat
owners have given us a little over a week to commit or not.  DO NOT
SEND A CHECK YET!  We will let you know if the trip is a "go".

Here's hoping we can pull this off!
