Battle of the Bays Round 2 more info... - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Saba Slayer · 05-23-2017, 01:00 PM

The Second Round of the Battle of the Bays CCA Kayak Tournament is a little over two weeks away and we’re stuck at 28 sign-ups…Please go to www.battleofthebays.com to get some info or a link to registration.

This King Harbor tournament should produce more and bigger fish than the Mission Bay event as the exit into open water is much closer and it’s quicker to access deep water and structure spots. You can fish inside or outside the harbor and once again live bait will be allowed.

As before will have the bass CPR format for Calico’s, Sandies, and Spotties on the iAngler app.
We will also have a Big Fish Side Pot with a $20 entry fee and an 80% cash payout. You can enter the side pot while registering on the morning of the event for $20 cash.
There is a separate prize and a new division for the heaviest bag of three rockfish and an additional prize from AHI for the largest rockfish caught on an AHI jig or Squirt Rig. You must be in line for the weigh-in by 1pm to be eligible.

I look forward to seeing some of you for the second tournament at the beautiful King Harbor Yacht Club on June 10th.
We will have a Captain’s Meeting on June 3rd at Baja Fish Gear at 24603 Narbonne Avenue in Lomita 90717 from 1pm to 3pm.
THE MEETING IS NOT MANDATORY…!

Since Baja Fish Gear is only a few miles away from Redondo in Lomita…there is an opportunity to pre-fish or at least explore the Redondo/King harbor area on June 3rd.
We will launch at the "hand launch dock" in King Harbor in Redondo before the Captain’s Meeting Saturday at 6:30am and fish or tour for a couple of hours on the water if anyone would like to get familiar with the area. I’ll have my kayak there to assist ANY REGISTERED PARTICIPANTS with a quick overview of the area on Saturday morning….Bring your hawg trough and a pole.
PLEASE CONTACT ME TO GET ON THIS JUNE 3rd PRE-FISH LIST… jim@sabaslayer.com

We will be launching on Saturday the 3rd. at the hand launch dock NOT THE YACHT CLUB at 6:30am and the directions from the 405 fwy are printed below…

FYI…the tournament check-in, launch, raffle, and lunch on June 10th will be at

Thanks Kai
I just got the email confirming your entry.
Any of you guys from SD that can't make the Captain's meeting...I'll save you a Captain's swag bag as long as we don't hit 50 sign-ups... after 50, it's first come first serve at the check-in table.
Good Luck...this one should be interesting!

Jim
