I sincerely hope that you are not in any way affiliated with the CCA aside from being a member. I absolutely wouldn't contribute to anyone going around calling other members an embarrassment to the community. The fact that you resort to degrading other members of the community is a poor example of the community should do to newer anglers like myself.

Its also very pretentious of you assuming everyone has $ to throw around for every cause that you believe in. The fact of the matter is I don't have to, even if I do have the money because there are other positive ways to contribute to the community outside of monetary support.

You may want to follow Saba's lead. He seems to understand that you get more support by encouraging people and allowing people to sign up at their financial availability.

The $30 for the membership works out to $.082 per day for the year to protect your fishing.

Easy Guys...
 

Easy Guys...this is meant to be an all inclusive event promoted as a CCA CAL fundraiser...As I said, I can understand not having 90 bucks to get in a tournament...fundraiser or not...That's why we dropped the membership requirement.
Hell... if I could afford to make it free I would do that...We want people to come and have fun and enjoy Yanni's delicious lunch and sample some Division 23 beer and win a few prizes from our generous sponsors and see what CCA CAL is all about...and if you want to join or volunteer for future Coastal Conservation Association events then so much the better.:cheers1:...and if we make some money for the CCA CAL coffers then I've accomplished my goal :luxhello:
...and thanks to all that support us...in any way you can:notworthy::notworthy:

I'm in for Mission Bay
 

Jim,

Finally after many challenges with the app, I'm in for the Mission Bay event. Hopefully I got one of the last spots for the rod drawing. Let me know if you need some help with the event. Thanks for putting this on.

Hey Jim, After catching 1 small bass last Saturday I think I have Mission Bay figured out....I'm in!

It starts with a GF-301 Floating Telescopic Gaff (28” to 45”).
The second prize is a kayak net from their Premier Angler Series Landing Nets. The LN-901B is light and easy to handle with one hand and it's made with HookResist anti-snag netting.
To finish off the package is a RSB – 700 Sabiki Stick – Bait Rod and 6 Sabikis.
This is a package worth $140.

The second group of twenty anglers that sign-up for the Mission Bay event will be entered in a separate drawing for this Promar/AHI package.

Is there a place to sleep there overnight? I'm seeing if my work schedule will allow another tourney.
