Shootout for Steven Green Tournament, Dana Pt, Dec 5 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PAL · 11-13-2015, 02:03 PM

Anyone here remember Baytubers? For that group it was as much about the potluck grub as it was about the fishing, and they were damn good anglers. Please consider bringing a dish to share. Let's make this more than a fishing tourney. It's a celebration of our good friend Steve.

Nov 21 Update:

Yanni of Fisherman's Belly, an epic cook as we've all seen in his videos, has offered to cook up a fish main course for everyone. It means a lot to him to support Steve. He asked to take over for the South Coast Chapter of Heroes on the Water cooking team, which graciously agreed. Thank you HOW for your willingness to help our, the work you do, and your generous spirits.

I'm sure this will be a successful event for a great cause!

Amish Ed · 11-13-2015, 06:00 PM

In the spirit of the day and taking Rossman's lead, my Dad would like to sponsor up to 4 veterans for this event. If you are interested please pm me your full name and the branch you served with and my Dad will pay your fee.

Very exciting! Charles Belñavis, tattooist and epic fishing artist, is donating an original illustration for auction - something like this. We'll also have a print or two on offer at the event. Much love Charles, thank you!

Iceman · 11-14-2015, 08:49 AM

I will be taking this one home

I'd like to see a Tattuna interpretation of a Landwhale

Sight unseen, I will start the bidding at $250.00 for Charle's piece of art. Should I win it will be hung on the wall at OUR place in Gonzaga.

I knew you were good for it. Think how great it would have looked hanging in OEX Sunset Beach. I was just looking out for a friend - it came framed!

ROFL, Kurt! Great to see you, Holy Mack, Rhyno, Hook1, Tman, Nancy and several other longtime friends.

T-Rex · 11-15-2015, 01:40 PM

I'm signed up. My father-in-law beat esophageal cancer about 20 years ago and I'm honored in joining everyone in helping our good friend Steve win the same fight!

Amish Ed · 11-16-2015, 08:39 AM

I haven't received any interest from veterans, so if you are a vet or are active duty send me a pm. We have 4 spots available for sponsorship from my dad.

PAL · 11-16-2015, 11:05 AM

See this map of Marine Protected Areas down around Dana Pt? The blue is cool - fish it up! The city of Dana Pt sided with us as we fought to keep the area open during the MLPA process. If you've been wondering if MPAs will get in the way (of this event - the kayak fishing and free diving community staunchly opposed this politically derived and not scientifically supported closure), now you know they won't. Sign up and support our friend Steve.

Edit to clarify my opinion of the closures.

Unless you happened to fish/live there. F MPAs and the whole MLPA process! Thats weak NIMBY shit Paul. It was the purported best bite of a forcefed shit sandwich and it certainly is in the way. You can not yet put lipstick on that pig. But no its not in the way of a Baby Beach launch though, youre right about that.

Anyway Steve youve got my support.

Iceman · 12-02-2015, 03:45 PM

66 paid entries and counting, a lot of guys paying knowing they can not attend and a couple of these paid multiple times for $100 donations. I anticipate 35-40 people fishing right now.........maybe more. $1320 raised to help out Steve with these entries and more the day of with some cool donated prizes!

ful-rac · 12-02-2015, 03:56 PM

That's good news!!!

I got fish at the ready!

I'm planning on bringing my firepit also, anybody know if we are ok to light a fire at baby beach?....so we don't freeze our asses off in the morning?

Amish Ed · 12-02-2015, 05:09 PM

Tony, I had the same idea, but my firepit is on it's last leg. Not sure if it's allowed either. Seems to me if it's contained, it should be ok. I have plenty of wood should you choose to bring the pit.

T-Rex · 12-02-2015, 07:12 PM

The closest fire rings are at Doheny. Baby Beach has BBQs but no fire pits. Maybe just use one of the BBQs for a fire?
