OEX HOW Tournament - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

PAL · 05-04-2014, 10:18 AM

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.
