Congrats on your first

Jimmy!!!!!

Prefishing the H.O.W. earlier in the week with optimal tides produced quality toads. Day of tourney was a different story as usual, but still managed to get a solid sixth place finish out of 100+ fellow Kayak anglers..I pitched my trusty Chatterbaits, DieZel MinnowZ & PaddlerZ in Pinfish, Pearl Blue Glimmer & Houdini, Sardine SkirtZ on everything, & Palmetto BugZ in Bluegill lathered in UniButter.

BIG Thanks Matt, Andy, CJ, Adi, Brent, Paul, Squidco, OEX, BWE & KFS! What a great day that was had by all!

Special Thanks to everyone who helped lend a hand making yesterdays event a blast!

Hope to see some of you guys at the next Rady Children Hospital fundraiser / Salt Water Bass Tournament on July 26th, 2014 @ Tidelands.
Heres a few clips from the festivities...

I worked weigh boat Adi (nice ride). Although the fish count wasn't high, the quality was right there, and the 110 anglers who turned out seemed to have a great time. Many thanks to everyone who turned out making this the largest Southern California kayak fishing tournament in years, particularly to Andy Allen, CJ Siebler, the grill crew, Tommy Gomes, OEX / Kayak Fishing Supplies, SoCal HOW, Margarita Mike and Adi and too many others to mention by name.

Here's Richard Wilson's jackpot.

Congrats to all the winners! It was my first tournament and I had a great time. Didn't get to weigh any fish but my numbers were still good. 3 sand bass, 3 spotties, 2 Halibuts and a huge bat ray. Bat ray must have has about a four feet wing span. Thanks to OEX mission bay for a great event. I was using 1/2 oz jig head with 3" gulp swimming mullet and 1/2 oz war bait with 4" sexy shad zman elaztech paddler.
