THANK YOU Ceasar Chang at PHENIX RODS :you_rock::you_rock:

Really want to but fly home from vacation late on the 29th. If I'm feeling spunky I may join in but I know better. Can I last minute join the morning of?

Yes...but...
 

Cronus...Yes you can sign up the morning of the event...but... this is a CPR tourney with a hawg trough and photo submissions and utilizing the iAngler app and it's a lot easier to do if you are familiar with the app and submitting photos.

The advantage to signing up early is that you can send in practice photo submissions before the event so that on tourney day you are comfortable with the app and it's use. You also get a few emails with tips and some video links to help you with the app and the submissions.

There is nothing more frustrating than trying to log in and set up an account the morning of the event at 5:30am and it's also tough on the guys signing anglers in at registration if they need to take the time to explain the app and how to register. :eek:

But...the bottom line answer is YES you can register the morning of the event.

THERE IS STILL LOTS OF TIME TO GET A DRAWING TICKET FOR THAT PHENIX ROD...we are still stuck at 11 registered and payed, as of today (Monday 18th).

Thanks for the details. Will install the iAngler Tournament app and play with it this week before my vacation. Will watch a few youtube videos as well just in case. Most tournaments are using this app these days so it wont hurt to get familiar with it now. Thanks again!

Our Captain's meeting for the Battle of the Bays Channel Islands Kayak Tournament is tomorrow…Saturday June 23rd at 10am at the Channel Islands Kayak Center, 3600 Harbor Blvd. Suite 213 Oxnard CA 93035
Ricardo Holden, a local kayak guide and one of our latest Hobie Fishing Team members as well as the winner of the recent Estero Beach Kayak Tourney, will be our speaker to give out some of his local fishing knowledge. We will also discuss some tips on using the iAngler app successfully to win some prizes and some of the other fun side pots or contests. I'll also go over the rules for the tourney.
