Moyer Tournament Advice - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

tylerdurden · 09-05-2007, 09:13 AM

I would say noon might even cut it close depending on the crowds and the tides. If it is anything like last year it will be a mess. 180+ fishing kayaks + rentals and tourists was a pain in the ass. Sammons site should have directions to Kate sessions. There are two routes, one over soledad and the other down the freeway. Driving there with a fish at the last minute would suck, especially if you don't know the area. Time constraints and crowds kind of make make tournament fishing not so fun for me, I like to fish on my own time.

Bring wheels, you may need them.

Lately I have avoided the whole beach thing anyway.

I would guess from point to truck to park is 90 minutes.

If you wheel your yak back to the truck you can rinse off the WSB slime from your clothes at the shower. Check out some bootay, dress and cool ride it to the park.

I was thinking the check-in was at Kellog Park. That would have been a drag...
...Kate Sessions a a bit of a ways off from the launch.

Crowds suck...I plan to catch my winning fish EARLY, load up and leave before the beach / launch gets crowded, get some breakfast, read the paper, catch some rays and wait for everyone else to show up at Kate Sessions Park.
Did I mention Rock Star Parking?

Game on.

The first time we did this tournament the weighin was at the beach and it was a big hassle, we had to get the kayaks off of the beach so once you loaded up you lost your parking space, so we moved to Kate Sessions and it has gone much smoother. Sorry if you think this "sucks" but everyone is playing by the same rules, so just plan accordingly.

The on line registration is still up so if you want to avoid paying the additional $10 register on line no later than tonight. IT is Pay Pal but you do not need to have a pay pal account just a credit card.

The drive from the launch to the park is tops 15 minutes
