This video was taken on Singer Island, Florida yesterday 11/19/2014. There were many fish being caught, and a good time was had by all. The Cold snap of the evening brought the bait fish in and they were trapped against the shore by a large school of larger fish. Most every fisherman left with their share of fish.
One of the most rewarding times a man can have fishing is when he catches a fish with a lure that he has created himself. Design your own fishing lures.
Have you heard of our new shop local campaign, #ilovelocalPBN?
Spending money at your favorite local business may lead to more money in your pocket. In a partnership with the PGA Corridor Association and Palm Beach North municipalities, #ilovelocalPBN is a month-long shop local campaign that encourages consumers to support the Palm Beach North businesses that have been affected most by the COVID-19 crisis.
Here’s how it works: spend $100 or more at a local Palm Beach North business within the retail, hospitality or personal care services industries, send a photo of the receipt to info@ilovelocalpbn.com, and you will be entered into a random drawing on July 31 where one lucky winner will win $1500.
We need our Chamber supporters to help us SHARE the LOVE!
Show your love for local businesses through social media by sharing a photo with the business’s sign, logo or handle; use the hashtag #ilovelocalPBN and tag @pbnchamber.
