The boat is a Defiance 22' pilot house with a Pelican sticker on each side of the wheel house. I will likely spend some time just making bait so if I have some it will be up for grabs. I may just have some other cold beverages on board as well.
Good luck to everyone entered.

Pro status kayak domestique... Can't ask for much more than that!

Are there any further details on the rules of the tournament? Biggest YT, hali, and cbass... and for biggest fish overall are only these three species considered? I'm assuming sharks/rays are not eligible? Taking bait from a motor boat is not grounds for DQ? Sorry if there's a link to the rules somewhere and I didn't see it.

Can't wait, should be a blast! Some how my wife's name was posted and she will go to if we supply hot tub and tottys!

If you paid with her Paypal, I only had her name shoot me a PM.

Chris, thanks for asking for clarification keeping pretty simple rules, Jim offering bait is reminiscent to the Steve Moyer Memorial Tourneys. Taking bait from any boat is allowed..........even if it is live squid!

I did not set up the "other" category this year.

Awarding biggest fish over all as well as biggest yellowtail, white seabass, and halibut. Kids fish for free with an adult, just e mail me their names prior to fishing. andy@oexcalifornia.com
All DFG rules apply, all fish must be unassisted catches, no motorized craft.

You may launch any time after midnight on September 10th from La Jolla Shores, final weigh in will be at Kellogg Park on the lawn near the restrooms 1pm. You must be in line with your fish prior to 1pm. We will be serving lunch starting at noon, invite your family to join in this celebration.
