[roadx]

sounds interesting

can you tell us more about winners advancing? how many tourneys? and whats is the ultimate goal for the series??


By the way there is a night time sand bass tourney being held by JeffB on the same day/night

[Toromike]

Are these all going to be in San Diego?

[steveooo]

I'm always down for a tourney. The 2013 SD Anglers Open Bay Bass Tourney is on January 26th. That may cause a few schedule conflicts with your date on the 27th?

http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/showthread.php?t=16234

[Iceman]

Cool format, can't wait for the details. :luxhello:

Wade, are you hosting this from Shelter Island? if so I'd suggest the earlier date as SD Bay gets tons of fishing pressure with the SD Anglers tourney the day prior to the latter date and prefishing. You also may get more people to fish the earlier date as they may fish this while prefishing for the 26th.

[wade]

_______________________________________________

Are these all going to be in San Diego?

A few will be here in San Diego. I would also like to host a few,..
maybe even one in Santa Cruz and some other lakes & various spots, Islands, Mexico ect?..
The more Pre-Registrations are completed, the further the full potential & progression of this Kayak Tournament can take on..

[MrPatrick]

My vote goes to tidelands park. Lots of parking, picnic tables, bathroom, fresh water rinse area, less crazy boat traffic than other parts of the bay and you can get to many areas in the time allotted.

[Baja_Traveler]

This sounds like alot of fun! I especially like the idea of shifting around to different areas each time - I'm all in for doing road trips. Maybe a halibut tourney out of the Old Mill in San Quintin later in the year? ;)

After lunch & everyone fed, I really tightened the screws and went to town..:reel:Rippin' and a tearin' Spottys all over Coronado with a great bunch of guys and girls.

I landed a pile of Spottys for this prestigious event held specifically in their honor. Meeting Big Ben hands down was my greatest highlight of the day. He is only three, but describing this amazing gifted young man is beyond words.
(It was great meeting his Ben's Dad too, thanks for the spare loaner!):you_rock:

So is it based on weight or length for the halibut for this one, I may be in...

Bottom of the rules state "You may Upgrade your fish as many times as you want" - so I take that to mean that in the end, biggest (heaviest) single fish wins, which is nice in that it promotes the release of your smaller catches.

[erinoo]

I'll play.

You can upgrade a length which is more accurate in a tournament of this nature due to scales being different. Is why I asked the question. Getting an accurate weight on a 36inch Hali while on the water for a release is going to pretty difficult but getting a length would not be. either way I am down.

[jorluivil]

Perhaps we can use this as a weight reference for any hali's that are released.

Masaharu Tsuida clearly broke fifty last week:yt::notworthy:...
Now its your turn...:paddleersmilie::reel:
http://i41.tinypic.com/72d11j.jpg

RE: (http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/showthread.php?t=18198&highlight=ckfs)











"Masaharu Tsuida this week caught a 58-pound yellowtail while on on the New Seaforth, a half-day boat out of San Diego. That's an impressive catch for anyone, but Tsuida is 90. And yellowtail are prized not only for their flesh, but for their fight. In other words, this is a remarkable catch.
But the story gets better. After I posted a photo of Tsuida and his catch on Facebook on Monday, it was shown to Linda Canada of the the Japanese American Historical Society of San Diego. She recognized the name and told me that Masaharu "Fatty" Tsuida was serving as a cook as part of the U.S. occupation forces in Germany in 1946. He received a Soldier's medal for exemplary service as a non-combatant, and a letter from Harry Truman.
A stove had exploded in the mess tent and Tsuida was severely burned while carrying the flaming appliance outside the tent to prevent a major fire.
"He picked it up and threw it outside, saving a lot of people from serious burns--although he himself was severely hurt," Canada said.
In San Diego, Tsuida and his family lived on Pacific Highway in fish camp-style housing built by canneries for their workers. His father was a boat captain for Westgate Cannery and Canada said the president of Westgate, Wade Ambrose, helped Tsuida's father and other Japanese investors in building the tuna boat, Westgate. So fishing was in Tsuida's blood and, apparently, 90 years of living has not changed that.
