We have a nice list of prizes, raffle goodies and auction items for this Saturday's La Jolla benefit tournament. If you haven't already, sign up! Every competitor will get a raffle ticket. More will be available at the event. Funds raised will go directly to the Partnership for Sustainable Oceans and Watermans Alliance to keep our precious kayak and spear fish sites open. Sign up here: http://www.diamond-safety.com/signup-form.htm

First the special prizes:
- Catch of the Day, something good for the best sporting feat
- 75 Hobie duffle bags for the first to come through sign-in
- Bugz Baits, 20 for early Bass Division entries from Kerry Peeler
- A bonus tackle pack for the Big Bass courtesy Andy Wright
- Prize pack for trash from Corey - bring it to weigh in for collection, best effort wins
- An iPod Shuffle for something special from the Loco Pescadores crew

We have two fishing kayaks for auction. Bid now right here in this thread, or contact me via PM. Bidding will end 1 hour after the awards ceremony starts, expected to be around 1 pm but could be as late as 2pm.

A Malibu X-Factor w/ 4 rod holders from OEX Oceanside. This proven fishing machine is a minor blem, but that just means you can take it home for less. Openning bid $600 please. That's about a $200 discount. (not as pictured, no rudder)

Also for bid, a Pelican Strike Elite 130 fishing kayak - complete with rudder! This is a lower-capacity but nimble craft, a barely used demo model. Yours for as little as $400!

Perfect for 6-9 year olds...it's all the rage, maybe get him to put a bag together of them...trust me, give a kid a bag of them, he will be stoked...

For the anglers in the big bass division, there will be cash glory MBF for the big fish overall...and two more ways to win. I will be manning the weighboat with Duane Mellor who is a good stick for sure - and we will track our single biggest bass each. There will be two 'bonus' prize packs for the anglers who weigh bass closest to each of our best of the day. Anyone can win, so be sure to weigh a fish even if you think it's too small (13" minimum however for 'surely legal' purposes).

Each prize will include a very limited (two) http://www.plasticnavy.com/forum/ima...on_biggrin.gif tourney t-shirt, some great lures & a gift certificate to Bay Park Fish Company... http://www.bayparkfishco.com/ ...if you don't know now you know, hands down some of the best food around!

The single biggest bass is eligible to win one of the prize packs should Duane or I stick a toad that's comparable, but one angler cannot win both prize packs.

Remember to join everyone outside the reserve line at 11am to see the calico that takes it & get in all the pictures. As I mentioned before we will monitor a VHF channel (71) for anyone that wants to weigh their bass early or just stop by for some refreshments. If any of y'all big fishers need to stop by for a cool one you're more than welcome to as well. :cheers1:Looking forward to Saturday!!
