CCA Coastal Social Tournament 4/30

[Saba Slayer]

SoCal Coastal Social 2022
The second annual Coastal Social Saltwater Bass Series kicks off on April 30th. Are you ready to catch some fish and support Coastal Conservation Association of California?

What is a Coastal Social?
The Coastal Social is a saltwater bass event for Calico Bass, Sand Bass and Spotted Bay Bass with two divisions to fish in. Boater and Kayaker. The boating division consists of 3-angler teams that will have a weigh-in at a specific spot and live release. The KAYAK DIVISION is for individual kayak, or float tube anglers with an aggregate length format for your best three fish. TourneyX is the app where you’ll send your photos of your Bass on your measuring board…It’s a really cool format where you can watch your competition as the tourney goes on during the day. Last year’s winner received a new Okuma Komodo Reel and a bunch of Hobie accessories and wear including a new pair of Hobie Sunglasses. You can fish anywhere on the coast that you like and just submit your photos to Tourney X…for the folks that are new to a tournament this is probably one with the least amount of pressure and low key events of the year and it’s a great way to wet your feet at a kayak Tournament…If you fish the event from Cabrillo Beach you could paddle or drive right over to 22nd St Landing to pick up your Swag Bag…
This event is a lot of fun with some great sponsor giveaways as well.
