2017 BD Yellowtail Shootout Kayak Division! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 04-26-2017, 08:51 AM

KAYAK Division Cancelled!

OEX is the lead sponsor for the newly added kayak division. I think we kayak fishermen in So Cal, some of the biggest pioneers of big game kayak fishing, deserve to be represented in the kayak fishing realm with a "Big League" kayak fishing tournament.

In trying to launch this and make it successful and special, I have secured sites for camping for out of towners or locals who want to join in a weekend of camaraderie, kayak fishing and camp fires, the camping is FREE Friday-Sunday to anyone who signs up for the tournament and contacts me

I need to ask a most important question...

does the 75 kayak fee include the lunch meal for $25?

Or is the lunch meal with the tournament price =$100

Will this kayak tournament have a kayak motor ban?

Iceman · 04-27-2017, 12:23 PM

No motors Frank! the $25 would be if you bring a guest, you are covered for the dinner with your $75 entry...........some crazy good raffle prizes and everybody only has one ticket each............good odds!

I think I know the answer to this but just want to double check. Are individuals in the kayak division required to attend the captains meeting the Friday before? I would be coming in from LA so need either leave work early, or skip out..

Yes all entered must attend Captain's meeting, hope you can make it!

PAL · 05-24-2017, 05:48 PM

Andy, can you please clarify the rules? It seems like it's okay to launch in the dark. Lines in is at 5, bait fishing is permitted before that, right?

What do you know about the cameras they give out, the ones you use to take the picture before you launch? It's a little different than what I'm used to. Really think I'm going to sign up.

Iceman · 05-25-2017, 10:01 AM

Yes bait making is ok prior to 5AM lines in. I will find out about the cameras. Pretty sure we will get identifiers at the Captains meeting that need to be in a photo. Hope you can make it!

Bait making rules

Quote:

4. Tournament kayak may depart from La Jolla Beach Launch, Mission Bay, San Diego Bay, Oceanside Harbor, Dana Point Harbor or Newport Harbor. Beach Launch only.
5. Start of Tournament – Lines-in shall be Saturday, June 24, 2017 at 5:00AM PDT.
6. Making Bait – Bait fishing is allowed before lines-in. No other lure, jig, or line specifically rigged for any gamefish is allowed in the water before lines-in. Any yellowtail or jackpot fish by-catch must be released.
