The shallow area offDeal produces Whiting with some Ling atnight. Sea Herring are in the Surf at Sharkand Manasquan Rivers. Use gold hooks andsmall Shad darts. The Optimist ShootingStar has been fishing Wrecks in the RedSquare Area for Cod. and some trips havebeen doing well. Capt. John DeRosc reportssome recent high hooks of 4-6 fish withother anglers getting one or two Cod. Lingand Blackfish fill out the catches. The Ja-maica 11 out of Briellc has a similar report,and Capt.

In 1928, Frank Paczkowski Sr., barely outof his teens opened his first store at a vacantA&P. where Dr. Tanchyk's office is pre-sently located, and named it Frank's Mar-ket. Five years later, he purchased property,where he built the present South Amboyestablishment.

In 1946, Frank's Market was one of thefirst members to join Twin County Co-Op.After the store was enlarged in 1966. it be-came offically known as Foodtown. In 1975,the South Amboy Foodtown building ex-panded out to the corner. The Foodtown inSayreville opened in 1982, and in 1986. theowners opened the Manville and Hillsbo-rough Foodtowns.

Foodtown has always been a family ope-ration. Frank Sr. passed away in 1973. Hiswife Helen is still involved in the business.The stores are currently run by sons Ed andStan, and their sister's husband. WarrenEberle. The grandchildren are also valuableassets to the company, as Ed Jr. is the StoreManager in Sayreville. and Frank Jr. is theMeat Manager in South Amboy. All of themany grandchildren have worked part-limein the stores.

The Foodtown slogan passed down th-rough the years is "Where Quality Rules" ismost accurate. One shopping trip to any ofthe Foodtown stores, and you will find alltop quality products, just about anythingyou need, and as a bonus, all of the workersare friendly and congenial. Foodtown al-ways tries their best to satisfy all of theircustomers. A current store motto that sumsup their business philosophy is "Our aim isto please.
