i do a couple different salt bass tourneys and usually theres a pot luck afterwords. i would join in.

sdfishman thats one helluva BBQ.

By the way there is a OEX tourney coming up . heres the details

""Kayak Fishing Addicts have partnered up with Oceanside Dive & Kayak to host the next KFA trail event, the launching point will be the Oceanside harbor boat ramp. The date of this tournament is Saturday July 14th. Here are the rules. Start time is 7:00 a.m. and ending at 1:00 p.m.
Pay parking. ( Must launch and land at ramp ) Shot-gun start near mouth of harbor @ 7 sharp.
3 bass event, the usual Sand bass, Calico or Spotties.
Pot luck/Awards ceremony following the end of the weigh in.
DFG and Coast Guard rules apply.
Bass must be 12" minimum and live when weighed. We just might have a weigh boat for this one.
This is a peddle or paddle event only.
All kayaks must have a working life preserver on board, and it would also be a good idea to have a marine radio or cell phone on board too.
Buy in is $25, with a $5 side bet for big bass.
Weigh in begins at boat ramp at noon, must be in line to weigh fish by 1:00.
Artificial baits only, scents/Gulp O.K.
Top 5 payout.
Your points from this event will go towards your over all standing in each Pro/Amateur angler of the year category.
Should be fun.

The first 50 to signup will get a Hobie Tote Bag with some Hobie stickers and a Hobie can coozie,some Oside Dive & Kayak stickers, and some Reebs plastics to use for the Tourney.

Pretty good response fellow yakers.My first thought was Fiesta Island across from Sea World because of easy parking, easy launch.However there is no grass.Shelter Island sounds good too.What's your thoughts?

O.K. yakers the Yakfest is going to be @ Shelter Island the 1st Saturday in August Which is 8-4-12.
I'll have the big white step van that looks like a plumbers truck.
I'll have a 10x10 canopy,2 tables,microwave and hopefully a generator.
SDfishman can use some charcoal/wood for that nice BBQ.
Bring what you can, such as food,cups,napkins etc.This will be more of a social gathering than a tourney but I'am sure we can figure something out on that day if needed.
I'll be there between 0600-0700 hrs. neer the launch ramp.Hope you can make it.

Thanks,Finyak

I'll grab the charcoal, More then happy to. How much do you need?

sdfishman

06-30-2012, 10:52 AM

Depending on how much we cook. They have a special right now 2 bags for 6.88 kingsford.. Maybe 3 packs . http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-203244486/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&keyword=kingsford&storeId=10051

Done! I'll get it. When you say 3 packs is that six bags since they come wrapped in twos or just three bags?

sdfishman

06-30-2012, 11:33 AM

That should be fine.. I have a few big pieces of oak to throw in too..

sdfishman

07-09-2012, 03:01 PM

What kind of meat are you guys bringing? Need a heads up.. Hot links/ribs/jalapenos/Chicken?

Jimmyz123

07-09-2012, 03:08 PM

What kind of meat are you guys bringing? Need a heads up.. Hot links/ribs/jalapenos/Chicken?

Should we each bring our own meat? If someone wants to bring burgers great, but without a true head count how do we know what to bring. At least if we did a BYOM you could share what you brought, and if you did something different with it.

finyak

07-09-2012, 03:16 PM

finyak

07-09-2012, 03:27 PM

Ha!! I did it.Well we can only go by what people say on this thread.At last count I think it was about 16+ friends and family.I think it's going to be kinda hard to get an accurate count but I don't mind bringing a large portion of the meat if we can just have other people bring the sides.
sdfishman what would you like to cook up?

Finyak

And a list of what each person is bringing.

sdfishman

07-09-2012, 06:59 PM

I'm down to cook anything.. If we want to keep it simple I would say ribs/chicken/and links.. Also we can cook corn/jalapenos or?? What we really need is a head count and list of what everyone is bringing..
