Good Luck Point

It's survey season and I'm back on the Black Rail survey for NJAS. I've picked up a new location, Ocean Gate in Ocean County, aka Good Luck Point. It's an interesting place with almost wall to wall marsh land. I need to research if it's all salt (preferable to BLRA) or if some is fresh, maybe on the west side of Bayview Ave. It's lush.
