BATTLE OF THE BAYS! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

ful-rac · 05-01-2018, 05:39 PM

Only Military Veterans Need Apply

So inspired by Rossman's generosity in sponsoring our great veterans....

I'm deciding to pay it forward! For those of you that don't know. The Coastal Conservation Association the CCA Battle of the bays Mission Bay is this weekend. I will not be attending but I have paid for 1 entry. To any military veteran that wants to fish this event sponsored by ME, let me know, I will gladly let you take my spot.

Your gonna have to buy your own raffle tickets though!!!! It's for a good cause and...I think they might even have free beer...at least they did last year...

So to everyone else, consider joining in on the tournament if you haven't already and support an organization that is working for US the Fisherman!

Tony.

WOW...what a class act

...THANKS Tony for paying it forward and hopefully making a veterans day!

If you don't have a kayak...I'll arrange for you to have one for the event....and I'll transfer Tony's registration to cover you. Please PM Tony and/or myself with your contact info and I'll get you a free code for the iAngler registration.

Hopefully Tony's tournament good luck will transfer over as well...LOL...!

I don't think I would be competitive in the tournament, but if anyone wants to take a vet out fishing I'm in.

I'm here for a few weeks from Mayport Fl doing some training at the Naval base.

I brought a couple spinning reels with me but I don't have any rods.

If someone wants to gear him out...I'll get Ryanjax a kayak...

Amish Ed · 05-01-2018, 08:05 PM

I'm going to fish and you're welcome to join me and i'll supply some baits and dheads. But, I won't be paddling out until 9 or 10.

Saba Slayer · 05-01-2018, 08:17 PM

Thanks Ed
It looks like he'll need a couple of rods for his spinning reels too...

Amish Ed · 05-01-2018, 08:23 PM

Ryan, if you can use a baitcaster, then you can borrow one of mine.

Saba Slayer · 05-01-2018, 08:54 PM

Looks like you started something Tony...We have another donor that has offered to sponsor a second Veteran...Thanks Don Bell...

Just email or PM me and we'll get you registered for the Mission Bay Tournament. jim@sabaslayer.com

Sweet Ryan thank you for your service! I hope you catch some fish! If Ed is going to help you out....your a lucky man! He’s a good fisherman!

HAVE FUN!

Ryanjax · 05-02-2018, 11:58 AM

Y'all are great. Just sent the email. I've fished the bait barges here in SD and taken a 1/2 and 3 day trip out of Point Loma. Hopefully I can figure out fishing Mission Bay.

If you need a spinning rod I have one kicking around the garage I never use - just give me a PM and I'll bring it with me.

Ryanjax · 05-02-2018, 01:14 PM

Jim just got me the info and I'm all registered. He also arranged a kayak.

Great community of fisherman you have here!

If you know freshwater bass fishing, you can pattern a bay. It's a lot more similar than one would typically think....

Saba Slayer · 05-03-2018, 08:06 AM

Are you fishing any of the events...?

I was planning on it but unpredictable business travel is keeping me from any commitments like BoB.

Such a bummer too, I've never been more prepared and "on 'em" like I have been recently. Maybe next year.....
