The month of May... - Page 4 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

All this intrigue and mystery and Josh's Grand Slam will likely not qualify for the WCW. Last month Adi helped out the ultimate fisherman with his posting challenges to get his April sub on the proper venue. Not so sure Adi can help-out this time? The rules are the rules and the professional fisherman really does not even need this grand slam to win the 2012 WCW. Last year I wasted my 3 for 3 in March 60 lb. WSB submittal by not getting it in before the end of the month deadline but we will see how The King is treated by this great forum organizers.

Well, at least everyone seemed to enjoy the long Grand Slam story and Josh's extended typing skills. I certianly apprecaite his ethics in releasing all the WSB he referenced and passing on all the Yellowtail for us to enjoy.

Personally, I am still searching for my first WSB of 2011. I have misplaced my WSB mojo but have enjoyed much hamachi so far this year. My efforts on behave of our local WSB with Hubbs and the Bill Poole Memorial Angling Tournament set for July 30-31st are paying off. OEX has joined our efforts with a generous donation of a kayak for our silent auction and The Fishery on Cass Street made a very generous donation of dining certificates as well. Bob Fletcher, Rick Maxa, and Carl Schmidt have secured a wide variety of rods, reels and sport fishing certificates for our silent auction as well.

I hope we will see many of you participate in this great cause as well. Josh asked me about prize money for this contest and sorry the answer is no $ but a nice trophy and a good piece of mind for helping the WSB replenishment program to continue on beyond 2 million fish back in our SoCal waters. All proceeds from the silent auction and entry fees go directly to the Hubbs WSB program. So far we have no costs for the contest with all the great donations form the local community and corporations going to the WSB. Even the food for the great bbq and sushi is being donated by local chefs that have offered their services once again. I am still working on getting a beer donated as well. Hopefully, Moyer will be able to exert some pressure on Ballast Point for me to reel in a keg of Yellowtail.

I am still on the fence about fishing in the kayak or sport boat division as the Excel is on-line for a one-day trip for the Bill Poole Memorial. Ingrid Poole changed the boat's schedule to accommodate this special fundraiser. The cost of the trip is $350 for almost a day and half with a 5pm departure set for 7/29, contest entry included in ticket price. If I can't figure out how to see these suspended WSB on my HSP I may have to go after tuna on the Excel. Call Fiherman's Landing if you have an interest in fishing on the best sport boat in the fleet for a very unique one-day run with only 35 other lucky soles.

See you in July, Kurtfish

5th Place 2010 WCW

Damn......Damn......Damn......congratulations, very well done, again.
Thanks for the Pacifico out there, I do not remember any of those girls anywhere near the launch when you landed. They came out of nowhere. Next time I am personally checking your fish bag, you slow-playing SOB.

Thanks, Greg. I'm trying to talk Hobie into putting a R.S.W. (frozen salt water brine compartment) into the next version of the Pro Angler. Not only will multi-day trips become possible, but fish this size will be sushi-grade for days.

My submissions for June are looking strong. Here's a little preview; good luck to all! __________________
