At least 1st through 10th places will receive desirable kayakfishing related gear. All participants will receive a schwag bag with a t-shirt and some nice goodies.
When: Saturday, May 18, 2013 - the north coast opener for rockfish and lingcod is Wednesday the 15th this year. Register by getting post-marked by April 15th, 2013. Many will arrive days before the event and/or stay for days afterward. A safety seminar and tournament check-in will take place at the launch ramp Friday the 17th from 5 to 6PM. A tournament-sponsored Gyotaku gathering will occur at a time and place to be announced. Other tournament related activities to be announced.
Where: Shelter Cove, California. Awards and potluck to be held at The Tides Inn. Group camping or private spots available through Shelter Cove Campground and Deli - (707) 986-7474. Many hotels, inns and vacation rentals available - educate yourself with Google.
Why: Read last year's welcome post for background information: http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php?topic=35334.0 (http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php?topic=35334.0)
Sponsorship as a means of registering: if you've attended a past GS event then you are free to register for GS7 if you are an NCKA member. If you have not attended a past event then you must be an NCKA member AND you must seek the sponsorship of a club member who has attended a past GS event. By sponsoring a newcomer to the event you are vouching for that person's character, and you agree to make yourself available to mediate any disputes or help with any undesirable situations that may arise involving your sponsoree. Examples of undesirable situations include but are not limited to: fighting, inappropriate intoxication, endangering others, vandalism, criminal behavior, actions that reflect poorly on the club as determined by the tournament director and tournament committee...etc. The idea here is that by using this basic control we will be that much more likely to achieve success for the event by not having any undesirable situations caused by participants.
Changes this year:
- Human powered kayaks only - no Torques, no sails.
- Catch and release bonus this year is only allowed for VIDEOS showing length AND release of your longest fish of that species. A set amount will be awarded for released fish that reach a threshhold size:
- lingcod over 30" measured and released on video will be awarded 30 bonus points;
- rockfish over 20" measured and released on video will be awarded 20 bonus points;
- cabezon over 20" measured and released on video will be awarded 20 bonus points;
- greenling over 14" measured and released on video will be awarded 10 bonus points.
- Check-in at the launch will be "self check-in", and only scores reaching a threshhold to be announced and posted at the check-in station will be verified by tournament staff. A priority must be maintained for only bringing your best fish to check-in. Clogging up self check-in by sorting your fish there may result in disqualification. Bringing anything but your best fish to the verification table may result in disqualification and ridicule!
This event is not just a fishing tournament. It's a gathering of people who share a love of Nature, respect for each other and the communities that we touch, and a focus on safely and conscientiously enjoying the sport of kayakfishing. While we encourage newcomers to experience GS, we are not looking for first-time ocean goers or those who do not have the generally agreed upon capabilities and gear to be on the open water in a kayak. If you are unsure of whether you have what it takes, by all means seek the training, gear and advice that is commonly discussed on the NCKA forums, find a sponsor, and bring the best of yourself to Shelter Cove. All are welcome within some basic requirements, and all are expected to display a very high degree of sportsmanship, friendship and promotion of the success of the event and the club.
I'll update this thread with a current list of registered participants as well as updates on prizes and other tournament details.
If you don't have some degree of the Madness, maybe you don't belong. :smt001

Looks great Eric! I'm in!

Can't wait. Daviator and I are renting the same house as we had last year and plan to arrive on Thursday for a little pre-tournament fishing and maybe a Loose Screws potluck at the house one evening. Gimme Shelter is always a FIRST CLASS event and I look forward to attending it for the fourth time. The "Screws" will be there in full force!

Nice work Eric! The new video release aspect is very cool.

How does one go about finding a sponsor that has been to GS?

Who wants to sponsor me?
-Allen
-
I'm looking for a sponsor too...
-
Ill sponsor anyone who wants to go and needs a sponsor.
Eric, can the vid for the release be as simple as a video on my digital camera that you can see at the weigh-in? The whole go pro thing might not work for me. Thanks dood.

-Allen

I'll sponsor anybody I personally know who isn't a cheater and acts responsibly.
-
If you haven't attended a past GS event but you are someone I know please just PM me about it, and I'll sponsor you. Craig's offer to sponsor anyone is a kind gesture, but what we're looking out for is people who don't know about safety or the culture of the club - so watch out for being too eager to help just anyone into the tournament. If someone shows the initiative to join NCKA and get to know us well enough to clearly deserve sponsoring, which should not be hard, then "getting in" to the tournament will be easy enough while also providing some level of assurance that we don't have people to babysit or people who don't espouse the values of the club. :smt001
Eric, can the vid for the release be as simple as a video on my digital camera that you can see at the weigh-in?
That's exactly it, Craig. I am considering planning to have the ability to download videos to a laptop at the launch, but just viewing them on your camera will be sufficient. There will be an element required, and I'll announce that Friday evening. (Like yelling "Banzai!" on the video, or something... :smt003)
-
Thanks Eric. This looks to be another norcal EPIC event. Thanks Headwaters and Jackson for kickin' it down.
-
Narisa and I had such a great time last year. We are looking forward to another great GS. Thanks Eric for all the work you put in.
-
I'll hold off for a few pages before putting up enticing photos of the best of the Cove. For now, here's some pics from a week ago. I had to go down there for a business contact, so I swung through the launch area and saw how hammered it can be in the dead of winter on a stormy day! We'll hope for better. :smt001

I think so, but everyone better double-check. Last I heard it was all full but one small room downstairs.

Still need a sponsor, skipro3, but it shouldn't be a challenge if you've attended other events.

OlySpec - your clubmates at NWKA who are NCKA can sponsor you, or you can appeal to any other NCKA members who have attended past GS events.
Like the sponsorship idea!
Is that going to be the norm for events from now on?
Good question! I think it's a good thing and it doesn't make it too difficult to attend. Just looking for a little assurance that we don't end up with people on the water or at the party who don't know about safety, the culture of the club, how to conduct themselves around families and a diverse group of respectful people...etc. :smt001
-
The important question is whos running the taco stand!?!?!??

In.

OlySpec,
I'll be happy to sponsor you and I'm sure my fellow Loose Screws who fished the ORC with me last year will sponsor any of the other NWKA guys who attend this year's GS.

I love shelter cove !! I am very excited already. Skipro, I would gladly sponsor you. It is the least i can do for all your help with Heroes on the water. Plus you are a fun guy to be around. I would also be happy to set up the taco shack again. I just need a few people to help run it. Hopefully the guys from NWKA and that microbrewery will be able to bring their unidentified frying object and cook the tortillas again.

Welcome back, all returning participants, and a warm welcome to all newcomers who are seeking sponsors. Looking forward to starting the annual cycle of loving the anticipation of going to pickup the mail each afternoon. :smt007
HOODIES:
I have on the entry form that the hoodies will be black, but I won't decide for sure on that for several weeks. I'm now thinking dark blue may be better. The ink on the shirts and hoodies this year will be purple. Something in the lighter range maybe a bit lighter than this:

Just curious,
How many new anglers can one sponsor?
I have pledged to sponsor Delbeck, and have another friend +1 that was intrested in joining. Can I also sponsor the friend +1 or is it one angler per sponsor?
Friend +1 has been on the salt many times, but all in So-Cal. (new to Nor-Cal)

If you're only allowed one Eric, by all means, sponsor your buddy. I can find somebody else to sponsor me whereas you're probably the only one who'd sponsor your friend.
-
You can sponsor as many people as you'd like. The only burden of sponsoring someone is if they're involved in an undesirable situation then you will be called upon to answer for their behavior or at least to mediate a dispute. So it should become a non-issue when all your cool friends have a great time. :smt001
It's like this: if someone were to, let's say, get really drunk, act out in someone else's camp, pick a fight with someone...etc., then we'd call upon the sponsor to help diffuse the situation. My intention is that even if we do end up with a potential hot-head/drunk/inappropriate character, he/she will be less likely to act out due to the realization that he/she will be direclty endangering the reputation of his/her sponsor with inappropriate behavior.
Don't sponsor someone unless you're confident that they understand that relationship and that the group, the club, supports such cooperation for the sake of all.

Can I now consider myself sponsored? :smt003
I'll be basing valid sponsorship on PM's I receive from those who are sponsoring others. Like if you are sponsored by Yakhopper then I should get a PM from Yakhopper saying he's sponsoring you.
In your case, Michael, you can list me as your sponsor when you send in your form. :smt001
Thanks for the comments - I enjoyed making that movie as it brought back fresh memories of GS6. After last year's tournament I didn't feel like I got any spectacular footage, so I shelved the project to make a movie of it. I'm glad I blew the dust off and put this together, but Windows Movie Maker is a total POS!! I need a new editing program...

I'll be there. Not sure about Polygamist Al. After GS6, I want a big butt. Big Bertha Butt, one of the Butt sisters.........
Oh yeah, I can sponsor one of the brothers. Just let me know. See you all there.

Ruben, There's trailer camping at the Shelter Cove Campground. I have a house rented and won't be camping but the campground is pretty big and should have lots of space available. The only issue is the dangerous road. I have seen more than one guy burn up his brakes but it can be done. Take it slow and use the gears to slow your speed and save the brakes.

***Regarding Surf to Summit. Their donated prize package last year was the most generous of any company I've worked with. This year they were good enough to get back to me to say they just couldn't swing a donation for GS7 due to the tight economy, but they'd be glad to get me some gear at a discount for the tournament. Anticipating the tough economy and already deciding I can buy prizes if needed, I'd offered to pay for part of a package to each of the potential sponsors I contacted - which weren't many... Anyway, I was especially stoked to get some S2S gear at a good deal and offer it as prizes for GS because I really do love their gear. I'm not a gearhead. I'm a layman who maxes out my opportunities, and, by extension, I max out my gear for all I can get out of it. I've gone through sets of some other kids of gear, but my Surf To Summit seats have lasted me for over 10 years of heavy use. I also have two of their paddle leashes which have seen the same heavy use, and they're equally as reliable. I'm happy to promote Surf To Summit even though they're unable to make a donation this year, and I'm stoked to make a big purchase of their gear to offer quality choices deep into the prize pool. :smt001

No problem at all, Paul. One can sponsor as many others as one chooses. Sponsorship is simply a means of providing some basic level of qualification for new people to the tournament. If you have friends who you know to be honorable people who will not end up in an undesirable situation such as fighting, drunkeness, criminal behavior...etc. then one should feel comfortable sponsoring as many people as possible. The simple existence of the sponsorship program should actually be enough to minimize the potential for any bad trips. :smt001
And don't forget that all participants must be NCKA members. Thanks.

I saw alot of drunkeness an minor criminal activity (unless is medical) ha an it was all good (no i dont medicate)!!! Fightings the only no no an medical around peoples families if theyve brought youngins

CAMPGROUND INFO UPDATE:
The Shelter Cove Campground and Deli is telling people on the phone that no reservations are needed to be in the group area for GS7. I'm not sure when they start that or when they end it (Friday to Monday?), and I've not heard the price, but the last couple years it's been $20 per person per night in the group area. The advantages are that there's lots of space in there, it's all NCKA for a couple acres...etc. People are also able to reserve spots outside the group area, and many with trailers, RV's...etc. will do that. The advantages to having a site outside the group area aren't clear - the sites are really small and expensive. So unless you have a trailer, camper or RV you should probably stay in the group area and enjoy more space than if you reserve a spot outside of the group area.
I saw alot of drunkeness an minor criminal activity (unless is medical) ha an it was all good (no i dont medicate)!!! Fightings the only no no an medical around peoples families if theyve brought youngins
I'm not saying that any drinking is frowned on. It's "drunkeness" on a level that will more likely lead to altercations that I'm referring to. I like to have a few brews like most of us do - we're watching out for people who may go off the deep end and get blackout / obnoxious / dangerous drunk. As for "medical", GS is a family friendly event, but any campground in Humboldt County has a potential pot smell in the air... I'm counting on people to be respectful of others, and I'm counting on families to realize that there may be a pot smell at times. The bottom line: be respectful of others.
-
Jack has the corner by the airstrip set aside for me and this corner is the quieter side. The party is usually by the road corner as you come in so the campground is sort of broken into two group sites for us. If you want to be able to get away from the party and be more in a family atmosphere tell them you want to be in the corner by Greg. I like to visit the party group but am getting to old to hang with the crew :beer3

Id recomend the greg cornor if you like sleeping at night, an the party cornor if u wanna watch for whale tail with Andy while were all fishin the tourny haha :smt005

Thanks dude!
I dove out by the red can (or the green can, I cant remember which, the one closer to shore) last year with Batt, Brandi and abman and cnew83 and was able to harvest a few urchins out there aorund 40+ feet but didn't see any fish. :smt012
I remember quite a few pinnacles between the hotels and abalone point that I saw on the FF last year come up to 30-40 feet. And I caught a lot of nice fish around them. :smt007
If I can see anything, I know I can get down to those depths, so no reason I can't find something.
My FF is dead, but I enlisted baitnbeer to come with me and he has one that works. :smt003

The catching of Pacific Halibut has proven to be one of the big highlights of our time at Shelter Cove. We never expected going into this that nearly every year we'd catch these fish. The more we focus on it and prepare for it, the more we'll see landed. I can see half a dozen coming in over the tournament weekend, and eventually half a dozen coming in on tournament day.
-
Say it with me: "Reee - AL - itT - tyyyyyyyy!"
-
Of course, it was Domenic that got us started on the yak-caught Pacific Halibut at GS weekend - or at all, for that matter. I don't know of anyone in California who caught a Pac Hali from a kayak prior to Domenic in mid May of 2009 at GS3. Not saying it couldn't have happened, but if it did it's not part of NCKA history.
Dom caught a 39 incher in around 60 FOW I think, on the leadhead that came with the goodybag, and the potential of the GS experience multiplied from there. :smt001
-
I didn't get pics of Derrick's Hali last year, and I didn't get any good pics of Terry's 48 incher the year before, but Randall's from two days after GS6 - the largest caught so far by kayak in California at 51 inches and around 60 pounds I think - got a little more press, and it's shown here:
It was a beast! :smt007
-
I couldn't get that into the yak too heavy for me. If I could lift it out of the water I'd flip over. So did he need help to get that thing into the yak? :smt001
-
Ya lol an cool thing about GS is Eric is ok with assist on landing large fish they wont be Dq'd from tourny so dont be scared to ask for help
-
Ya lol an cool thing about GS is Eric is ok with assist on landing large fish they wont be Dq'd from tourny so dont be scared to ask for help
I have a 44 inch Riffe Cannon with a slip tip on it that I will be happy to deploy and blast any halibut floating yakside.
I can jump in with the gopro filming and blast that puppy... :smt005
Or I guess we could just shoot it while sitting in the yak...but that wouldn't be as much fun.

That's correct - no penalties for assisting someone to land a fish.

I'd like to offer some salmon enticements over the coming days... The ocean salmon season at Shelter Cove used to start on the second Saturday in February - that would've been last Saturday! I caught plenty of early season kings at the Cove in the early 2000's... Now we wait until they announce an opener, and it'll likely be in April - I'm betting on 4/13/13 right now. This could be another banner salmon season, and future seasons are dependent on many factors - ocean conditions likely being foremost.
This tends to be the case: Salmon congregate at Shelter Cove where the reef juts out across a normal migration route, and the reef also represents a source of feed in that the habitat around it becomes part of the salmon migration. Keep that in mind...
I'll share some photos of Shelter Cove Kings. It's the primary target for me at Shelter Cove. Consider it. :smt001
-
My biggest salmon ever. 38 pounds. :smt001
I grew up fishing with my Dad on his powerboats out of Humboldt Bay and Shelter Cove. He taught me how to catch salmon without a downrigger, and in later years when he did have the DR, he was the one who always took that rod! I am a DeepSix guy. :smt004
In all the years fishing the powerboats off Humboldt Bay mostly and a fair amount off Shelter Cove, we never brought more than a near thirty pounder to the boat. So when I caught a 38 pounder on my kayak it was a whole new world! I was thrilled to achieve it, but the heavy relevance to this thread is that this occurred in a small window of opportunity. You NEVER know when a big fish will bite at the Cove. Be Ready. :smt001
-
I'm bringing a BIG net!
-
Your torturing me Eric... That's a bad ass salmon.
I wish I lived closer to the cove I would be out there all the time.
-
Everytime I see a pic of you on that beach I smile.
:smt001
So excited to get back up there!!!!!

Jim

I gotta brush up on salmon tactics. Would love to actually land one from my SOT kayak. Salmon was my second ever yak-caught fish, a 16+ pounder in AK. In fact I think that was the last time I landed one, in 1998 :smt010

Looking forward to more tips on how you fish for salmon
Right on, Bro. I'm always stoked to get people on the salmon.
For me, this is what everyone should consider at the Cove: when salmon season is open you should always run gear that's legal to catch a salmon. This would be a mooching rig with fixed circle hooks no more than 5" apart I think. Pin a herring or anchovy on there and run it just off the bottom or even troll it - this will catch all species at the Cove - from greenling to big halibut and salmon.
My main gig is to troll for salmon, and, ironically, that catches all the other species too! I've even had a big halibut on while trolling only a couple dozen pulls in 60' of water or so.
Trolling Rig: DeepSix diving plane, two and a half to three feet to a Herring Dodger or other dodger/flasher, then 2.5 to 3 feet to your hooks. The best hooks to use for trolling is a "mooching rig" - get the slip variety instead of the fixed, and don't confuse the fixed "mooching rig" you buy for a legal mooching rig for mooching!
I've never seen legal mooching rigs sold pre-tied - that would be two circle hooks fixed no more than 5" apart. The "mooching rigs" you buy in packages are either fixed or moving(slip) j hooks.
Mooching Rig: two circle hooks hard tied no more than 5" apart about 3' from a banana weight of 6 to 8 ounces.
It's confusing, but once you have it down you're set. Read it a few more times. :smt001
How to Catch a Salmon - Volume 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O6aqTsFpi0#)
The other trick to catching a salmon at Shelter Cove: stick with it! Even last summer's awesome season required lots of hours/miles trolling per fish caught.
Here are some pics of a nice 22.25 pounder I caught in 2010 at the Cove.

The goodybags for each participant (guaranteed up to the first 150) will again this year include a Hawg Trough Extension and connector. I'm going back to handing out a nicer alternative - upholstery connector that works better than the screw and nut.

You're not the only one, Jack! Let's catch some salmon this year, People! :smt007
I'm not sure how many we caught last year - maybe half a dozen on tourney day, but I'm not sure how many others may have been caught over the weekend.
I know I lost one at the net two days after GS6 and lost one of the only salmon of the weekend the day before GS5 at the net! I'll get my redemption this year! :smt003
-
Yes, I am definitely looking forward in catching a ocean salmon. I still need to learn how to drop the bait with paddling and how much line to let out. I'm sure I can find some older post to educate myself.

It's all about keeping your gear lined up while you're moving and letting out line in increments while continuing to move.

Hey folks! This is an event I would really (REALLY) like to make. I've been on this board for awhile and posted a few times. Have never been to any NCKA event. I've been saving up to buy a kayak and I finally pulled the trigger and got one yesterday (Oh yeah baby!)
Would really like someone to sponsor me...since nobody here knows me, I thought I'd throw out a little about myself to possibly win over and get a sponsor.
So lets see...if I had to blame anyone for getting into this hobby/lifestyle, it would be from watching everyone of Eric's videos on YouTube. Totally inspiring, totally incredible. What can I say...wow. I love to fish, and grew up sailing the Channel Islands as a kid. I love the outdoors, I respect the outdoors, like I say....this is almost a lifestyle...something you feel to your core...something you're drawn back to when you're away for too long.
I've never owned my own boat, except for the canoe I take my kids fishing in (they're still small, but even still I can only manage to squeeze 2 kids in with me at a time) so this kayak is a big deal to me.
I'm an ICU RN at Oroville hospital (so you guys will have a nurse on site at the event...never hurts to have a nurse or two around at a big event). In a previous life I used to make video games - I was the producer for Rock'em Sock'em Robots on the Playstation when I worked for Mattel Toy company (check it out on YouTube...my small claim to fame) Lets see...I have a wonderful wife and 4 kids. I live in Chico (5 hours from the ocean...damn that's too far away!), but take the family to the beach every chance I get. I'll be doing mainly lake fishing, but only because of the distance...I hope to fish the ocean at least once a month.
Safety is very important for me. I have a PFD, dry pants, NRS wet boots, Standard Horizon VHF, all Coast Guard requirements, a light pole, manual bilge pump (soon to install 12 volt pump...keep the manual as backup), first aid kit, pool noodles galore (still need to stick em in the boat though), etc., etc. (Am I missing anything important?)
I promise NOT to get drunk, take my clothes off and streak, or pick any fights with Hells Angels...
I DO promise to contribute to the event in anyway I can - where help is need or required, to add to the event as a true sportsman, gentleman, and to add to the all-around 'good vibe' this event has....and if I have to and get desperate, I guess I could bribe someone for sponsorship (PM me and we'll arrange a Paypal transaction... ;)
Thanks for your attention, tanks for this wonderful group, and hope someone will tip their hat to me to get into this event.
Now back to rigging up my new yak...I want to hit Almanor Sunday, but heard its still pretty frozen up there...anyone have any news?

I have a PFD, dry pants, NRS wet boots, Standard Horizon VHF, all Coast Guard requirements, a light pole, manual bilge pump (soon to install 12 volt pump...keep the manual as backup), first aid kit, pool noodles galore (still need to stick em in the boat though), etc., etc. (Am I missing anything important?)
The only thing I'd say your missing is time on your new ride - congrats (again) by the way. You'll want to be uber familiar with it and practice your self rescue. The ocean is NO joke!
You sound like a stand-up guy and if I didn't need to be sponsored, I'd do it for you but alas I can't. I know that wasn't helpful, just thinking out loud.

Hey sorry if this has already been answered. I am like brand new to the sport, but I would love the chance to get up there and learn from others.
So, my question is, if I am by no means ready to compete, is there a way to come and just hang out and learn? I mean it is a free country, but I don't want to mooch... er... I mean take without paying :)
-
Murfman - Welcome to the tournament! You are good to go - register at will. :smt001
This is not arbitrary. Anyone who wants to come to this thread, or to the open forums of NCKA in general, is free to bare their soul in this way and appeal for an at large sponsorship. I'm all about this kind of communication - nicely done, Murf. I look forward to receiving your registration, and I look forward to meeting you at Shelter Cove.
One of the coolest parts of having put on the events is the new people that it brings into the fold - The Madness is what we call it. :smt004

DrO - well-timed question! I like your approach, and I want you to know that you are totally welcome to participate without registering - come see how it goes down and get familiar and comfortable with your open ocean abilities. If you get some ocean time prior to the close of registration and do decide to get a sponsor and join in the tournament I'm sure you can make that happen. Even if you don't register for the tournament you are totally welcome to join us at the potluck and camp in the group area on the same terms as those members who are registered in the tournament. :smt001

Shelter cove was my first taste of the salt an it was awesome very protected launch just remember to have a radio, stay close to the plastic fleet, and if the wind starts blowing pay close attention an paddle into it not with it because the farther u get from the launch the harder it is to get back lol

TEAM COMPETITION UPDATE:
I found out the other day that Tad probably can't make it this year, and he's headed up the team organization and compilation of scores the past two years+. I'm hoping someone else will want to step up and take the reigns on this. The job entails:
- get a team name for each registered angler
- help identify teamless anglers and get them hooked up
- confirm the composition of teams prior to the event
- compile team scores (total scores of individuals divided by number of teammates, regardless of how many ended up fishing the tourney)
- provide official results
- provide a prize or prizes (optional, and I'm willing to pitch in some tourney dough for something we agree on)
Although teams are required for the tournament (fish in teams of at least two), I don't ask for a team name on the registration, and it's really not part of my process. So getting everyone's team name will likely entail PM'ing each registered participant and keeping an updated list on this thread. Setting people up with teams can be as easy as providing a list here on the thread and updating it as people chime in that they've hooked up with someone else on the list. If you'd like the job I'll throw in a hoody, but don't come asking for too much help or guidance, or I'll fire your ass! :smt002 :smt005
Seriously, I'd appreciate someone doing this, and you could get some tips from Tad about how he wants it to go (because I think he'll administer it again in the future), but I don't have room on my plate for it. Thanks for the consideration. :smt001

Yeah, Buddy! I'd forgotten about that video - very nice job, Bro. Catching halibut is one of the most exciting and unique things about GS. Can't wait to see and hear who hooks up this year. About 51" is the score to beat. :smt007

Good Man! Thank you! :smt003
As an opportunity to remind everyone of the rules, if you bring a fish ashore it will not count in the tournament unless you get it measured at the check-in! And it's especially true that if you have a notable catch like a halibut, salmon, exotic, or big ling/cab/rockfish, I would really appreciate getting pics of it on a Trophy Trough so we have record of it for the sake of future tournament media content.
When I heard during GS6 that Derrick had caught a pacific halibut I was stoked, but I did get a bit upset when I found out he fileted it prior to check-in! Sorry, Buddy! Thanks for your understanding. :smt001

It's in the mail, I can't wait for the cove and another season!

Decided to not go, since it's the weekend before my finals. Maybe next year, good luck to you guys! Is this tournament usually around the same time every year?

Too bad, Jack - maybe next year. Yes, the tournament is held in conjunction with the rockfish/lingcod opener in mid May. There's always the chance it would change in the coming years, and the most likely change would be to move it to early summer for better chances of fishable and diveable water, warmer beach weather, bigger salmon...etc., but the opener holds alot of allure for all of us hard-up boaters who've waited all or most of the winter to be allowed to target the bottomfish species again.

Okay, thanks.

I hate this time of year!

Hi Eric,
Ooter1, Angler Fish, and Dry Bones can't wait to join the fun. Thanks Roger for the sponsorship. Can you explain how the team points are calculated or averaged. Thanks.
Hey! Steve - I'm glad you and your bro and crew are coming to GS. :smt001 Adam/ATD is in charge of the team scoring and has a separate thread where he's keeping track of who's with who, and he's identified how he'll score. I believe it's all teammates' scores added and then divided by the number of teammates, regardless of whether they fished that day or not.
If your question is how the scoring for the tournament works, which is common, there's a requirement to fish in at least teams of two (for safety reasons), but scoring is individual. The team scoring is only a side statistic. The Angler of the Day / AOTD is the top individual angler.
Last year's winner was Salty. He scored a lingcod, greenling, cabezon, rockfish and salmon. There were plenty of 4 species competitors, but Salty was the only one who got the 4 bottomfish species and a salmon. There was one pacific halibut brought in.
This year's check-in will have self-scoring where people can fill out their own scorecard, and only those reaching a threshhold score potentially placing them in the top ten will go to the official check-in. It'll be very important, at either self check-in or at the official check-in, to ONLY MEASURE YOUR BEST FISH! Last year there were so many people to check in, and so many of them sorted through their fish right at check-in. It was NOT OK!!!
Anyway, I'm trying to get the word out early that we need to keep things moving for all competitors at check-in, so measuring any more than one fish per species will not be tolerated and can lead to DQ!
I'm so harsh. :smt003

Are we there yet! I need a salt fix!! Will May ever get Here!!!!

Nice work Eric. Thanks for all you do to make GS such a great event. I can't wait! Fresh water fishing just doesn't do it for me, like the big blue.

I spoke with the proprietors earlier, and can report that The Inn of the Lost Coast, located on the north end of town about a mile from the Tides Inn, launch and campground, has open availability for that weekend. They also have a jacuzzi. Good people, and they would love to host some of our group that weekend.

Thanks Jimbo. If the stupid A-Hulls are kicking me off just might have to take you up on that!
:smt002 :smt005 :smt044
I'm serious though...if viz and conditions are doable I very well may dive at least part of tourney day, so may not contribute a ton of points to the team score...not that it really matters.
:smt004
Looking forward to seeing you up there dude!
:smt006
Sincerely,
Jim
-
Sounds good , hopefully we finally get some good diving conditions since it seems I have never had a good dive up there yet. Seems to never get the vis and always a day late. This year plan on getting up there earlier so might find a day to enjoy some good diving.

Question about C&R Video;
I will have a Go-Pro for this event, but being new with this, I'm not sure how to edit it (download etc ) and will not have a laptop to download to. Will you be downloading the video, or are we responsable for that? I hate to think I will need to buy a new laptop just so I can release my catch ... wife is already not happy that I got the Go-Pro :smt003

Glad to hear you're coming, Eric. I'm considering loosening up the C&R requirement to allow photos, but as it stands now you'd have to have the means of showing your video somehow.

Salmon season officially opens at Shelter Cove on Saturday, April 6th. By the time we meet at GS7 the powers that be will have met and confirmed the rest of the season, and odds are overwhelming that the season will be open for fish over 20" - 2 a day, chinook only. This year is supposed to have more 4 year old fish in the ocean, so catching a 30 to 50 pound fish isn't out of the question. I encourage all participants at GS to run gear that can legally catch a salmon - fixed barbless circle hooks while mooching. You can hang this rig just off the bottom anywhere outside at the Cove and have a chance at a salmon, halibut, lingcod, rockfish, greenling, cab... If you're stationary and working on gear or whatever, just put that mooching rig down (banana weight) and you'll greatly increase your odds of catching something incredible. :smt001
If we keep our hooks in the water and have the right gear, as a group we should catch one or more pacific halibut, some nice salmon, lingcod to 20+ pounds, cabs to 10 pounds, rockfish to 7 or 8, some AOTY leading greenling... Be ready to maximize your chances and to deal with potentially hot action! :smt007 (and an anomally like a 15 pound cab, 30+ pound ling, 15 pound rocky...etc. is never impossible!)

17 days left to get your registration in the mail. If you lag and then beg me to be in the event I will have to deny you - it's very unfair to those who did sign up on time to allow anyone in late.
So get it in if you're wanting to be a part of GS. Thanks. :smt001

Hello everyone,..... :smt006
Is anyone willing to sponsor me. Sound like a lot of fun that I shouldn't miss.
-
Hey all,
my NCKA messaging/PM is apparently not working. Trying to get in touch with Brad "Zilla" and when I look in my "sent" messages que, nothing appears in the "sent" column. Maybe one of you fine folks could PM Zilla for me and see if he can PM me. Thanks in advance,
Shannon- SRJ
-
Shannon, there is a little toggle switch below the message that you have to click in order for it to be saved in your PM sent folder. Or you can go into your settings and set it to permanently to save every message.
Don't sweat it, Chances are that your PM was sent. Just sit back and wait for a response.
-
Got it,
thanks for the information. Shannon
-
Hey - I was just wondering if we might have an SRJ sighting - not to mention a Zilla sighting! Hope you both are coming. :smt001
-
Hey hey, I can't miss out on this. Been out of the loop for awhile moving to Arizona and all. Haven't been on the site for awhile because I didn't want to torment myself seeing what I have been missing out on.
GS6 was a blast and can't wait to be there for GS7. Just got to get final approval from the boss. Can't wait to see everyone again. NCKA has the best group of people by far!!!
-
Ah hell, my brother registered before me! I gotta get on this thing tomorrow.
-
Roger that Eric,
I will be there. Zack cannot attend so I'm gonna try the next person with a Z name to try and reteain the team championship title. So, Zilla, if you are out there, get in touch with me. Stoked to hang with everyone.

Ah hell, my brother registered before me! I gotta get on this thing tomorrow.

Hello guys and gals,
I'm looking to participate in my first GS tournement this year and am looking for a sponser. Little tidbits about me, Im originally from fremont ca but now reside in humboldt county. I almost exclusively fish out of Trinidad since its so close to me but looking to explore new areas. Met a lot of good folks out on the water. I've been kayak fishing for a year now and still looking for the salmon that got away : ) thanks- Cam

Hey I finally found a stamp! :smt044 Registration is en route to Loleta, CA!
At 102 right now - last year at this time there were 79 registrations received. Could be looking at around 175 to 185...
At some point there could be a maximum number of registrations accepted. What's really cool though - at 141 yaks on the water out of the 153 registered, it didn't seem at all crowded out there!

Hello all,
I am looking for a fishing partner and would be willing to sponsor someone who might also need a teammate. Fished GS6 which was my first time kayak fishing for me. What a blast, even though I did not catch many fish. As the summer progressed so did my kayak fishing skills. So look out GS7
-

Thank you Jonathan. :smt001 I accept your offer. I haven't been asked to be on a team.

I'm going to leave it at "be very careful."

Not trying to be a downer, but your intimation that heavy consumption of alcohol is a big part of Gimme Shelter is off base. It's a kayakfishing tournament and a family weekend. I enjoy a few beers, and I don't object to others enjoying some alchohol, but I'd say that if consuming alcohol is part of your focus for attending then please stay home. Don't want to single you out either - anyone who plans to "get drunk" at the event is included in this advisory.
Thanks for understanding, and I do hope to meet you there while sober. :smt001
-
PNWKA - I will sponsor you.
Martin

PNWKA - I will sponsor you.
Martin
Thanks Martin. I was at GS-6. I was asking if Allen wanted to be on the NWKA team. See you at 7! :smt006
-
Hope I wasn't too hard on you there, Jstafft - I know you're just kidding around. :smt008
I really just want people to know that, while I'm all about having a good time and do enjoy a few brews myself, I want to make it crystal clear that the event is not about drinking! Alcohol is really just part of what goes on outside of the kayakfishing, and as the guy who organizes it I think it's important to be vocal about not supporting an agenda of drunkeness or other kinds of insensitivity to families and others - this includes swearing, aggressive behavior, farting...etc.! :smt003
Bring your Good Times Mojo, don't be surprised to see others with different or more extreme modes of partying, and treat others like you'd want you and your family to be treated. Thanks. :smt001
-
Well said Eric...I know you're a little sensitive about this, and I think we all are after what happened last year, and some of the conversations/threads over the past year.........
I know you have everybody's best interest at heart, and I am optimistically confident that we are all going to have a GREAT time all weekend regardless of weather, fishing success, preferred method of relaxation etc.
I think your statement below sums up my experience , beliefs, and expectation of my times at Shelter Cove and at all NCKA gatherings.
Bring your Good Times Mojo, don't be surprised to see others with different or more extreme modes of partying, and treat others like you'd want you and your family to be treated. Thanks. :smt001
Oh yeah...and if anyone steps out of line...me and baitnbeer are in charge of "campground relations" this year...so play nice and be respectful. :smt004

What? No farting... oh man I better not bring my pregnant wife. Watch out Jim, she might be pregnant but this chicks a black belt and it could get crazy. You could always use the excuse, "it's was 2 against one man". :smt044
All jokes aside, Eric my reg was sent out today. I have 4 solid dudes attending the event for the first time. I look forward to hanging out with all you good folks on and off the water. Mike

Stayed up late considering the Cove run for the salmon opener today and had the truck all loaded. But when I crashed out around 1AM the buoy at Pt. Arena had just gone over 10'. I scrapped it. Got up at 615 to check the buoys, and although it had improved, I decided to wait for calmer seas in the weeks ahead.
The Humboldt Tuna Club's mad reporter, Louis / Birdchaser III, has been updating a thread over there all morning. Powerboats did go out and hammer 7 to 8 pound average "footballs" out by the Whistle I believe. It was torture to be at home thinking I could be there trolling, but realistically those 8'+ swells on a 17 second period are nothing to mess with - especially when the SCA was set to pop up and the south wind could rip through any time. Still torture!
GREAT sign of the season to come. :smt007

Please let me apologize for hitting a nerve with my sarcasm.
As this will be my first GS event I was not aware of previous issues and have no intention of being " That Guy" would be way out of character for me to so and will not happen! I was merely trying to show my excitement to be a part of such an awesome event! I see now that it I could have simply said that. I do understand the challenges of hosting such a large event usually lead to the liability of being forced into playing the behavior police to those who choose to act in poor taste. I'm only interested in meeting all you guys that make this kind of awesome event happen and catching some fish!
and maybe a beer or two :smt059

Just talked to Zilla and he is swamped with work and doubts he can make it. :smt009
If anything changes and he can come up just to hang out he will, but he can't committ.
SRJ, you may need to twist zack's arm and get him to come back up so you can keep the JZ team name. :smt002
:smt006
Sincerely,
Jim

Thanks for the update Jim, I wonder if we need a new team name in honor of his absence...

Get to salmon gear ready if you want one. It was a lil rough today, but I did manage to get one. You read the details and porn in the reports section soon.
I will post pictures of my setup here soon with tips.
Tip #1. If you know you have holes in your net or if you havnt checked your net for holes, find em and fix em. Don't learn the hard way like I did today.
-
Hope you didn't loose 1 because of the hole in your net!
-
It made it to my lap...
You will have to read the report. Lol :smt001

Any prize for the last to register?
I've considered making some red shirts for those who can't play with the team but still want to practice along with us... :smt003
The prize for being late registering is it gives you extra motivation to get signed up on time the following year.
To miss a deadline that's been made obvious for months means you must wait until next year, and not empathizing with those who signed up on time is a sign to me that you may not understand the culture of the club. We actually expect accountability! :smt001
As for a prize for the latest to register - I'd never want to encourage being last minute, but fair's fair - if you sign up in time you're in. That's the prize.

Cove this morning went from beautiful to rodeo in seconds flat at 8:20am. Slow bite but good to get out.
-
Thanks for the report, Doug - way to give it a go. I saw on Humboldt Tuna that there was one PB fish by 9AM on the radio. I was almost regretting not going down there, but the buoys have been showing some bad stuff. It's hard enough to function on nasty water like that - let alone in a slow bite. We'll have our days. :smt001
-
In other news... I just got the mail for the day. We've eclipsed last year's number at 155 people registered so far, and I received about three dozen over the last several days last year (right AFTER Tax Day). So this could get interesting! :smt003

Count down less then thirty days till I get there!!!! Getting all my gear ready. Big hammer swim bait, diamond jigs , salmon trolling gear. Woo hoo it is getting close!

The record attendance for a kayak fishing tournament on the west coast was 200 for the Steve Moyer in 2006. Since then attendance has declined and in 2012 it was cancelled. This makes GS the largest kayak tourney on the west coast and maybe the US. What is truly remarkable is that the participants drive on average probably 5 hours to get there unlike La Jolla. However, even with sky high gas prices, way cheaper than Alaska. A real tribute to Eric and NCkA. It is going to be EPIC!

they better they are bringing the kayak! :smt044

Team Jackson will be there - the "Pros",
Jim Sammons and Drew Gregory, have elected to accept a sponsor's exemption / free entry in the tournament, but they can't win any prizes. Other team members Dan Arbuckle, whose Headwaters Kayak Shop is sponsoring along with Jackson, and Sean White are entering the good old fashioned way and are eligible for all but the grand prize.
EDIT: See page 33 - no late entries will be accepted, and all valid entries are eligible for all prizes.

Wow we got the "Legend" Jim Sammons to come up to our gathering! Been a fan of his for a long time and always wanted to meet him in person, should be great. Watch out we may end up on the Kayak Fishing show then everyone will be coming up to Shelter Cove which would bring a lot more money to the area! Can't wait!
-
Amazing! Will everyone fit on that strip of concrete in front of the Tides? I sure hope we don't get rain at the potluck. We could break the world record for the number of people in a garage.

lol thats crazy eric any idea if hes gonna do footage of the event?

Good question Jim. Eric, is he bringing the film crew?
-
You know what, I just corresponded with Jim for the first time about the tournament yesterday, and, obviously, he's not here in this thread. Right now I feel that he will need to fit into the culture of the tournament. Ironically, I am pretty involved with some level of video production myself... :smt003 When GS was gaining steam and I was also building some level of volume in my own video adventures, there was a time when I would meet people at the tournament and I could feel the potential apprehension or maybe just a general awareness, and sometimes even an eagerness, of being around me and that I might pull out a camera at any time! I have always done my very best to respect that and have actually filmed less during GS events than I would usually. Long story short, I feel that Jim is a guest - a special guest - who we should be glad to welcome to our gathering, and I intend on doing that. I will appreciate the communty's support in making sure that we impart the message that this gathering is so far from a commercial event that we have no time for such things! Filming a show requires much planning, and the most important part of that planning is engaging the people who you want to film with, so I hope Jim will at least warn me if he plans on capturing footage for his show. Jim, you out there? Welcome to GS - glad to have you. :smt001
-
Well said and makes sense to me. Thanks Eric!
-
Oh boy! This IS going to be fun.

"Page 33 info..."
This map shows our primary fishing area at the Cove. It's a very good idea to locate such a map online, study it, and obtain a copy if possible. This map could easily make the difference between a good day or a bad one, and it could at least factor in to how NOT to lose salmon gear around the reef. The green Bell buoy is about a mile SSE of the launch, and the red Whistle buoy is about a mile WSW of the Bell. My old man fished there commercially out of a dory for a short stint in the 70's. Being pre-electronics, he said they always used to score whatever they were after "between the Bell and the Whistle." Words to fish by. :smt001
I've used a 'spraypaint' swath of yellow to show typical routes for those who seek rockfish and lingcod. Opportunities for nice fish start right after leaving the harbor. Farther north of the area shown on this map there are more nice reef structures, but most of the fishing does take place within the area shown here.
I used a blue spray to show areas where I've caught salmon while trolling. The typical powerboat trolling area is just outside the red Whistle buoy - that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of salmon inside on the reef - it's just easier to lose gear in there.
I've used red to show where I do NOT want people to fish. It seems that every year someone fishes in too close in front and gets tossed by a set wave. Most would agree that the bite and the potential for more and bigger fish is better outside the shallows anyway... Please don't be this year's statistic by getting thrown off your yak due to fishing in too close.
As for halibut, there have been plenty of halibut hooked inside the area shown here - that's Pacific Halibut. Mine came from a bit farther west of the Whistle than is shown here, but the biggest GS weekend halibut to date came inside the Whistle a ways... Dream about it, consider what you need in order to have a chance at it, visualize it, seek out chances at it, and prepare yourself to experience it. :smt001
Mine came on barbless hooks, 25 pound mono, and no problem in the big salmon net. Dream About It. :smt001

Thanks Eric for the priceless information.

OK, I'm having a little trouble sleeping over some issues. I am learning as I go here, so please bear with me...
I made a couple of mistakes in the past 36 hours based on my immediate reactions to a situation I've not deal with before. I've got people requesting that I make special exceptions for them, and, while I really want to accomodate it, I really need to stick to the rules as announced and reinforced here for months now. I will not be extending any entry or gear purchases to anyone who signs up late.
You needed to have your entry postmarked by 4/15/13.
Second issue, I announced that some Jackson Kayak Team members would get a sponsor's exemption, while some others wouldn't, but those who did pay the entry fee would be eligible for all but the grand prize. I'm going with this:
- tournament director is not eligible to win prizes;
- all other paid entries postmarked by 4/15/13 are eligible for any prize;
- if a Jackson or Headwaters team member were to win the grand prize it would be up to that person to decline it if that feels right;
- late requests for gear will not be granted.
This is really hard for me to do because I'm going to have to hurt some feelings of people who I know and consider friends, as well as possibly irking some who I don't yet know and who I hope to be friends with. People really need to understand my process here. I get lots of comments about how busy I must be and what a challenge it must be to run an event like this mostly by myself. I am really not THAT busy, and it's not a HUGE challenge to pull off what I plan. The big challenge becomes figuring out how to either accomodate people who want me to change my process just for them (like signing up or wanting gear late...), or, if I choose not to accomodate such a request, the challenge becomes how do I tell someone "NO".
I'm going to practice right here:
Club member by PM, email, FB message, telephone...etc. - "Eric: I know I didn't follow the rules as announced here for months, but will you make an exception for me?"
Eric - "Sorry, but I can't do that - what you're asking is not fair to those who signed up on time, and it's also not fair to me."
What some people do not seem to understand is that the reason I'm not too busy and overwhelmed with administering this event is that I follow a plan! I stick to my process. If someone wants to grab me AT the event and say, "come over here, do this..." I likely have to tell them "No - I can't change my process for you because it may get me off track!" And that person needs to understand what I'm saying! The same goes for BEFORE the event - I'm on a schedule, and I have a process. If you want me to put your name on the roster (even just for gear) then you needed to get postmarked by 4/15/13. I can definitely sense when someone doesn't understand this - most people are like, "what's the big deal?" and thinking that I'm being uptight. The reality of it is that those who try to have me accomodate special requests are really messing it up for all those who are counting on me to follow through with my plan. I don't have a second list of people who can pay late or have me collect money from someone at the event. The way I pull this off is to stick to my plan and have people follow rules. If I veer away from that m.o. I'm risking the success of the entire event. So, I'm asking everyone:
Do not ask me to alter my plan for you!
Thank you. :smt001
-
For those of you that didn't make the deadline, I suggest you come up and fish and chill anyway. Sure, you won't get to enter the tournament, but I doubt that there is a single person here who entered just for a chance at one the great prizes Eric has gathered.
I had a GREAT time at GS5 and I didn't fish all weekend.
-
Ill second that. Even if ur not in the prize pool doesnt mean u wont have a good time, the fishings awesome and so are the people. Enjoy a weekend of fishing and company.
-
you still have to follow the rules, having a vhf, pfd, pair up with somebody, don't consume alcohol or anything else that would turn you into an idiot, etc.
what about attending the safety meeting and potluck?
-
I think many will back you on this Big E, I know I will.
It's not about the prizes anyway, heck I never accepted any of the prizes (other than the seat I owed my wife) that I won. Just show up and forget about the prizes and enjoy the best weekend of the year with a great group of people.
See Ya There,
Eric / Yakhopper
-
Wow, there's gonna be prizes!
Sweet!
seriously though, it has been months. Gotta draw the line somewhere.
Thanks for the basic intel Eric, that is "money" right there. printed, hilighted & ziploc'd. I feel like I am close to thinking about having a plan.
-
OK ..I have only been around for about a year and this will be my 1st NCKA tournament ...I am very excited and have been looking forward to it ,dreaming about 100# Halibuts for months now
Funny thing is I know nothing about Shelter cove ,, my sleeping arrangement's,,if I will be on a team,,who I ill partner up with ,,what I will eat ,,,etc..etc..etc...
The only fact I had was SEND IN $ AND FORMS BY the 15th or I was not fishing in the tournament....

You know you are addicted to Gimmie Shelter Events when you start looking at this link almost every six hours for at least a month before the event just to see if the conditions are going to be nice! :smt005

Eric-
I say no all the time, piss off half the people I come across on any given day due to the nature of my job, and ref high school football in the HDNL so I know quite well how to be unpopular and take heat.
If you need a NO man, I'm your guy. Just let me know who to say NO to.
-
if your money and registration was not sent... there is always next year or Albion.
-

I had a GREAT time at GS5 and I didn't fish all weekend.
+1.
GS and Albion for me are FAMILY REUNIONS and hanging with bros I don't see on a regular basis AND eat good all weekend... and hopefully catch big fish!
You can participate 100% same registered or non-registered. The only difference is you don't get a t-shirt and goodie bag.

Thank you, Guys, for your support. :smt008

Oh man!!!!! Just go for the food!!!!! Every year! I can't make this event :smt010 If you have the opportunity to go... GO! paid or not!!!!! Just the info on the water, watching some of the BEST yak fisherman in the world :smt005 go at the Pacific to Win! To be learning for free is priceless!!! Seeing everyone and living the Lifestyle even for just a few days is refreshing to body and mind! Y'all have fun and stay safe. Wish'en I was fish'en with ya!!! :smt006
Since some seem to have never fished a bass tourney, There is no bending the rules... It is what it is... Eric, Amazing system you have developed to do a 200+- participant event without a staff is awesome. All that come (most) are there to have a great time and it happens! You do you, and if they get bent, It's them not you having the problem. Thanks for putting this event together and one of these years, I'm gonna make it there :smt005

Going to try to make up for friends/food!

Having run a few big (Snow Skiing) events I know that it's impossible to make everyone happy. One has to follow fixed guidelines or it screws up the event for almost everyone except those that never feel that the rules apply to them. Eric, you gave everyone plenty of advanced warning. You were very clear and we support you. As for Team Jackson, welcome guys. We really appreciate your sponsor's support. I can't see them wanting or needing the grand prize as they are already sponsored. I don't have a heartache with them getting an Ab for best team cuss it won't hurt my ego. Anyway, I've got a team of awesome anglers and we're going to kick team Jacksons ass :smt005
As Dustin and Eric (yakhopper) said, ultimately it's not about the the prize, but about our extended NCKA family (WWMD ?)
If you don't have a team, just speak up in a post and you'll get invitations. Cuss that's how we roll.
Please, Please, Please, come prepared. Support your teammates. Don't ignore Eric's safety warnings! The last thing most of us want is yet another Northern tournament thread saying thanks to all my NCKA bros for saving my foolish ass!
-
Well said Eric. As usual, a well thought and practical response to what could be a very difficult issue. I always look forward to GS and the way you make it happen. I'm a little concerned that it is getting so big that keeping that "something special" kind of feel is going to be difficult but if anyone can pull it off, it's you. I'm a long way from the "Cove" but if there's anything I can do to assist, please don't hesitate to call on me.

Attention All Salmon Anglers
Section 8226. Relinquishment of salmon head for recovery of coded-wire tag.
(a) Notwithstanding any measurement requirements under this code, and to implement the Department’s salmon tagging program, any person in possession of a salmon with a missing adipose fin, the small, fleshy fin on the back of the fish between the back fin and the tail, upon request by an authorized agent or employee of the Department, shall immediately relinquish the head of the salmon to the state, at no charge, for recovery of any coded-wire tag. The head may be removed by the fish owner or, if removed by the official Department representative, the head shall be removed in a manner to minimize loss of salmon flesh and the salmon shall im¬mediately be returned to the rightful owner.
(b) It is unlawful to intentionally conceal, cull, or release into the waters, a salmon with a missing adipose fin that it is otherwise legal to possess.
size if such sinker or weight is suspended by a separate line and the fishing line is released automati¬cally by a mechanical device from the sinker or weight when any fish is hooked. See sections 28.65 and 28.70.
(2) Barbless Hooks. No more than two (2) single point, single shank barbless hooks shall be used in the ocean north of Point Conception (34° 27’00” N. lat.) when salmon fishing or fishing from any boat or floating device with salmon on board.
(3) Other Hook Restrictions. When fishing with bait in the ocean between Horse Mountain (40°05’00” N. lat.) and Point Conception, if angling by any means other than trolling, then no more than two (2) single point, single shank, barbless circle hooks shall be used. The distance between the two hooks must not exceed five inches when measured from the top of the eye of the top hook to the inner base of the curve of the lower hook, and both hooks must be permanently tied in place (hard tied). A circle hook is defined as a hook with a generally circular shape, and a point which turns inwards, pointing directly to the shank at a 90 degree angle. Trolling is defined as angling from a boat or floating device that is making way by means of a source of power, other than drifting by means of the prevailing water current or weather conditions. See Section 28.65(g).
(4) One Rod Restriction north of Point Conception. Salmon may be taken by angling with no more than one rod in ocean waters north of Point Conception. See Section 28.65(e).

The tournament has been on the Saturday opener for rockfish and lingcod the past 3 or 4 years. This year the opener is on Wednesday the 15th. The tournament is on the 18th, so there are a few days of potential pre-fishing. Mother's Day is on the 12th.
Maybe we'll see you there. :smt001

Just curious. Is this now the largest kayak fishing tournament on the West Coast?

I believe it was last year at 153, and should be again this year at 192.

9 more entrees and it would be a record

Would that be the Moyer Invitational a few years back at 200 entries? Please put up a link if there are actual details available on that and other events and their numbers.
Personally, I think GS is in a different league than any one day tournament in more accessible fishing areas. Registration closes a full month before the event, the location is remote/a long trip for most, and people show up for multiple days and nights with more activities in mind than just the tournament.
I'll keep trying for best vs biggest. :smt001
-
For the record, I think we should count nonpaying kayak anglers too since they're going to participate in the event.

You are by far the best Eric thats why we drive 9-10 hrs for the event!

I have to agree with this, GS is something I look forward to all year!

At this point GS is more of a pilgrimage for most of us.

GS is all about quality time! Quantity is a non issue! This applies to the participants and the catch.

Any side bet? I'll guess 173 :smt003
I will bet you (a shinny new penny) Sonny, 201
I owe you a "shinny new penny" Allen. Will pay you at GS7 :smt001
Sonny, I believe it's closest without going over (typical bet) so I owe you a grubby old penny I found in a parking lot.... :smt004
-
The shiny new pennies look good and are great for showing off but the grubby old ones are a lot more fun. That's a sweet deal. I'd jump on that one Sonny.

Holy Schmokes. We'll need air support for a fleet like that. If anyone has a quad copter an overhead photo would be pretty cool.
I may have to come up a little earlier, stay later. I'll need a vacation from my vacation when I get home.

I will bet you (a shinny new penny) Sonny, 201
I owe you a "shinny new penny" Allen. Will pay you at GS7 :smt001
Sonny, I believe it's closest without going over (typical bet) so I owe you a grubby old penny I found in a parking lot.... :smt004
Sonny, I wouldn't trust this guy if I were you. You better bite that penny to make sure it's real :smt003

We may never reach the number of pages for this event as past years but that does not mean we don't think about any less.

Just going to throw this out there so you all can prep.
After I win a new Jackson Cuda 14 at GS-7, I will raffle it off to the highest bidder and write a check for my brother Mooch. This will be the year, so bring your "A" game ;0)
I will also have a few items from my collection up for sale between now and GS-7 to help a brother out.

I saw on another board, or maybe YouTube, a prize for the biggest fish caught on a little Barbie fishing pole (one of those little kiddie poles that are only like 2' long)...that might be a fun contest...

NWKA has a Barbie Rod contest at the ORC every year. It looks like a lot of fun and it's amazing what get caught and landed on those things. Could be a lot of fun!

We could even do it the day before the tourney so we don't interrupt the serious fishing. I think we could even make it a Loose Screws event. I would be happy to handle the details if you guys really want to do it and Eric approves.
Martin
-
I approve! :smt001
-
But... There is a real potential to hook some very special fish - like big salmon and halibut. I'd rather see a side competition with standard gear instead of Barbie poles. The fact is, if you hook a big, hot fish on a kiddie pole you'll have very little chance of landing it. I'd rather see fishing skill and readiness celebrated vs just luck. :smt001
-
I was thinking this is the antithesis of skill; the absolute opposite of a skill based competition. Understanding that up front really puts it in perspective. There's no way, this would take away from the skills demonstrated to win the real event. A winner of this kind of contest would never be able to view this as skill. Just fun! Let's see if there's much interest before adding another event to event. I'm Ok with or without it.

How now finese is skill! An it would take alot of it to land a big fish on barbies back

Side bet on tourney day. I don't think should be any other option.

20 days to go...are you packing yet? :smt003

Side bet on the big day!! You guys can decide what you want to do... I would say biggest Rockfish it would be the easier thing to do. And whoever is collecting money dont take no for an answer... another idea is to do a 50/30/20 split if the pot gets real big. If 150 guys buy in it could be nice for day for a few or one.... :smt044

Just my thought exactly, since we arent going to target specific. Rockfish everyone gets fair share on catching. Will this be same format as Annual Albion side bet?

Only 17 days left, I'm excited, are you???

Had a gentleman in the store today said he trolled from 10 am to 4:30 pm at the cove and stopped counting after landing 26 lingcod on an apex! Only 3 were under 22 inches and he trolled from 20 feet down to 70 feet and said he got some huge lings! Never hooked a ling on an apex before!
-
Ab diver picked this guy at shelter cove! Nice Dungee! They say it could be close to 11 pounds!!
-
I'm really skeptical of that pic that's been circulating this weekend. Fish sniffer pose and all. Still, looking at his fingers the crab is huge in comparison, but 11 lbs? I dunno about that. I'd love to see independent confirmation/verification and a measurement of the shell.

Exactly. The first thing to acknowledge, IMO, is that he's holding it way out front. Let's see a scale or AT LEAST a measure across the back - an 8" dungie would be HUGE, so was this a 9"?...
:smt001

Side bet. I vote for longest rockfish entered in the tourney, on tourney day.
I want to see a 26" verm win!
I'm in and will be looking for Kayote and Al to give them my $.

I think that would be the state record. If I'm not mistaken the record verm is around 13 & 1/2 lbs!

Im not sure either, but the crab we got from the commercial guy there were bigger than any crabs I have seen or caught in Trinidad or Eureka.

OK, check this out: Over the past several years I've noted a trend that sometimes occurs with the ocean swells and wind. At times (no guarantees here...), a flat spell will be followed by another one a week later - it often occurs 2 to 4 weeks in a row, with about a week gap between flatnesses. Let's hope for that! By the end of next week (5/10) we should be getting some good views of how the water and wind may be... On pins and needles here! :smt010 :smt007 :smt009 :smt004 :smt003 :smt005 :smt006 :smt044 :smt001

I will be there with the kids, not competing, just being with the gang, and time with the kids. I will have the Busted Out Comedy DVD ready next week, NCKA gets first crack at buying them, I will honor the show price of $10/copy. Also I know there were some people that wanted posters from the tour, I will make sure to bring some and sign them. This will most likely be my only time to fish the ocean this summer, so I am hoping the Shelter Cove God is good to me and mine OTW. I can't wait to see everyone, and just relax and enjoy life as only NCKA does! Can't wait to see everyone!

Yes, tapatalk pages don't correlate with the website pages. To answer your question, it is post 616, but Eric is not talking about fishing gear, but rather clothing gear that arrived.

2 Barbless circle hooks hard tied < 5" from the eye of the top hook to the bottom of the lower hook is legal for anything you will catch at Shelter Cove.

Damn , watching the swell report is going to kill me the next week! Now it looks like a big swell is starting to come in on MOnday! :smt009 Let's just hope the shit changes otherwise it might be a bumpy ride!

9 more days to go...I'm soooo excited!

It's at this point it all starts to become reality. The pile of gear is growing, the constant trips to pick up random tackle that I'll probably never use. Staying up late online researching what bait worked where, studying underwater topo maps of the cove. And of corse checking every weather and swell report I can find. This is when we all become amature meteorologists so post 'em up when you find 'em
From what I found Monday looks like 4ft seas at 6 seconds

Only 8 more days to hit the road...

Sleep is starting to get challenging... :smt003
The long term swell forecasts from Stormsurf are getting closer to the opener. Here are shots of today (it's EXTREMELY flat right now) and a shot of next Tuesday at 11AM. Jimbo was saying a swell is kicking up, but as long as we don't see pinkish and red hues we should be good.
I'll keep updating with new screenshots, and keep your fingers crossed for Saturday the 18th's shot...

A few thoughts regarding GMS7:
Shelter Cove is the only place I have gone on a fishing trip where the fishing was at least as good as home!
I am so distracted, I do not know how I am getting through the rest of today, Mon and Tue at work.
Just a small fishing trip with about 200 friends.
After driving that far the wx has to really suck to not go out. We proved that a couple of years ago.
Going to blow off fishing this Sat to get ready. Sun is committed to building up WAF. I can make up for Sat by thawing some Seabass.
Very very distracted by the prospects for next week.
Go Sharks and Warriors

Friday around midnight Stormsurf forecasts are out: Swell looks sweet, wind doesn't... My advice: fish early, paddle upwind, prepare to get back to port vs being blown to Bear Harbor.
It's been my experience that the Cove can either be very protected from wind or blown out right to the beach. We'll hope for the former. :smt001
-
6am Saturday wind looks a little better. It will improve as the week goes...
-
Woooooooooohooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! The forecasts are looking favorable!!!! :smt007
Bring your best - could be epic! :smt001
Swell looks low. Wind looks very manageable. Where you see 14 knot gradient near shore south of Punta Gorda I would expect very light winds around the Cove until midday, and it could be flat and glassy through the day. There's never guarantees, but this looks very good! This is great news, but we'll see what may change over the coming days.

Looks to me like the swell will be great - it'll be flat alongshore - good ab diving conditions - hope for clear water. The wind will likely be a factor, but the forecast could be way worse. It's looking like we'll have some nice mornings and possibly light winds through the day. Definitely doesn't look like it'll be blown out, and with the very low swell the wind waves are less dangerous.
It's getting close, and it's looking good. :smt001

I simply cannot get enough of talking about fishing, reading about GS7, outfitting my kayak,and helpful tips. Everyone I've spoken to has been so helpful. One guy even volunteered to lend me a paddle and pfd yesterday because I didn't have any. I don't know this guy from Adam, yet he was willing to do that! That's the good stuff right there...I roll like that too! The enthusiasm here is so palpable. GS7 is looking awesome! I'm excited for all participants. Everything is so well organized. Eric, you gave me the kayak fishing bug three months ago, watching those YouTube videos of yours. I'm on fire and down for this endeavor 100%! I got my hands on a Eddyline Caribbean 12' couple weeks ago and in the process of getting outfitted. I hope to be year and GS8 and meet you, maybe even fish with you. My best to you all! :smt006

Just because you are not in the Tournament, doesnt mean you have to not go; that's only half the experience of GS events. Come down, enjoy the festivities and test you new ride while scouting out the water... The experience will pay great dividends for you at GS8.
BTW: Welcome to the insanity!!!! There are more events to come...

There will likely be significant law enforcement presence in the cove as the manhunt for Shane Miller expands. This could involve roadblocks and vehicle searches, which are already going on in the Mattole Valley. Shane Miller is wanted for a triple homicide in Shasta county. The Kings Range remains closed.

Lets be conscious and respectful and try to stay out of the way. Obviously if you see this guy report it immediately.
2 days to the cove, can't wait! Anticipation building, weather looks reasonable, should be epic. Epic.

There are no roadblocks going to Shelter Cove and the police presence will still be minimal. The truck is there for improving communications and it is highly unlikely that he would be headed for the Cove. Hopefully they find his body soon though.

Slammed at work right now, but I need to say something about this issue.
This fugitive killed his wife and two little girls in Oregon and then came back to where he grew up in SoHum. He's on the loose and it's a big deal. Everyone needs to be aware of it. Hopefully it'll be over by the time people are hitting the road for the Cove. Please educate yourself a bit and be mindful of it. I'm very surprised it hasn't been on the national news - or maybe I missed it.
This is ANOTHER reason to be very careful on the road. Once we're at the Cove we will be a strong group, and safe travels along the way need to be a focus.
Thanks.
-
Well said Eric. I have been following the story for a couple of days and wondered if he could be near the "Cove". My Norcal geography knowledge isn't real strong but it sounded to me like they were looking in the areas some of us may travel through on our way to the cove. Doors locked and eyes wide open!
-
I was down there the day the search started. The dude has serious ground to cover before reaching the Cove and it is more likely that he would be seen by law enforcement or someone else before making it. The guy is probably dead or just hiding deep in the woods.
-
I've gone from mouth of the mattole to shelter cove on foot in 30 hours. Serious ground, sure, but its only 25 miles or so. Even cutting up into the hills it can easily be done in 2 days. That said, that guy could be anywhere and it is unlikely that he will come near whitethorn road or the cove. Still, it is a low probability high impact situation and pays to be vigilant.
Anyone know is the Miller cabin at Big Flat the same family? The one with the airstrip?

It's going to be epic. All PETA should stay away from the fish cleaning station or it will be a Prozac moment for you. The wind will be quartering and the bluff should provide protection so I don't think getting back to the launch will be an issue. The wind will making jigging more difficult so bring the big guns and be ready to lose some stuff. I hate drift chutes but will bringing one.
-
Eric,
Do you have a copy of the conditions during GS6 for comparison?
I don't, Antonio, but I know it was low 40's with rain. The ocean wasn't bad that day - just the cold and wet!
I think it'll be similar to last year.

Jigging is gonna be tough in wind like that, unless your pedaling a Hobie. Just sayin.

Of course, keep in mind there may be DFW wardens around too but their inquiries about your catch will not be for data collecting. Know your regulations!!

Yes, Josh. I constantly use the mooching slip rigs for trolling. Constantly.

When trolling they don't have to be circle nor fixed, but fixed is better.

I'm sorry you won't be able to join us this year, Bill, but I'm glad we're on your radar. You're a quality guy, and I hope to see you next year. :smt001

With 192 anglers I wouldn't count on much being available, supply is pretty limited at the Cove and it's a long drive back to the next store. BYOB! :smt001

According to NOAA, it's not that bad. Just a mixed-up short period swell that makes it borderline sketchy.

Easy, Guys and Gals - the forecast looks good for tourney day. I wasn't just blowing smoke when I was ecstatic over the forecast! Derrick's numbers look more likely to me than the general forecast. I always want to know and consider the general forecast, because conditions that they call for can come nearshore any time, but really the 0 to 10 nautical miles forecast is telling you what to expect offshore. Also, and this is key, the NWS has changed the way they provide their marine forecast - it's changed in the last year. Here's the scoop:
They used to separate swells - the stuff generated a long way away and quite predictable - from wind waves - the stuff generated locally and much less predictable. Now they combine the two, or if you see two different heights called for it's two different swells with wind on top of it. The overall effect of this change is that they hope to provide a more reliable picture for mariners on the open ocean who may experience a 10 foot sea due to a 6' swell and 4' wind wave combined. What I've seen firsthand this year is that this new forecasting protocol has caught people off guard. At the Cove a month ago I was shocked to see it totally flat ass calm all around the point, through the Cove, and up along Abalone Point even! The call had been for 8' at 8 seconds - if you saw the vid, it was rough, but it wasn't an eight foot swell - it was a 1 to 2 foot swell with wind on it - even I was caught off guard by this although I'd seen super flat on Stormsurf. A good way to study it now is to use Stormsurf for your swell height and NWS for your wind trends, and to remember that wind may not affect nearshore.
Last point, and this is very key as well - the big N, or North wind, can come over the King Range and blow you toward the Whistle buoy when it's strong - not cool. But NW, Northwest wind, comes down the coast and is partially blocked by Punta Gorda and the Cape to the north of that. Days of NW wind at the Cove (like Saturday) usually start out with the whitecaps way outside, and they march in as the morning and early afternoon go by - sometimes not even making it to the beach at all and often staying outside the Whistle area. Days of heavy North wind, like I said, can come over the mountains and be much more problematic, OR... they can be completely blocked!
Bottom line, tourney day forecast looks very good to me, and I'd bet Sunday will offer fishing opportunities as well - at least to the very early boaters.
-
I've got the Schwag all packaged up - 3 different packaging sessions of about 3 hours each. I've double checked everything and am excited to hand it out and see everybody. Now it's time to get all the prizes, potluck, scoring and other tournament gear ready and then pack all my boating and other stuff. I'm gonna be tired by the time I get to the Cove! It's a good kind of tired though. Can't wait. Drive safely and watch each other's backs. :smt001

Thanks for asking, Al! :smt001 Claire and I did some errands and shopping this afternoon, and we'll get our groceries at Safeway in Fortuna tomorrow at 1145. We pick up Collin from 4th grade STAR testing at 1215 and it's off to the Cove. We should roll in by a little after 2PM. Check in at The Tides isn't until 3PM, so that's our ultimate target as I'll need to offload a gigantic load of stuff into my room, the garage and the exterior areas so I can devote the back of the truck to schwag and hoodies to go hand out madly until dinner. :smt004 Possible deli dinner and more gear handouts and maybe I can get my gear prepared for a dawn launch while the kids sleep in and then get breakfast. Plan is to catch a salmon and get back with the kids by 9AM, get them fed and moving and check out the beach and boogieboard scene while being ready to hand out gear where needed. If I can get 100 to 120 of the bags handed out by the safety meeting I'll be stylin'! :smt005 I appreciate offers of help, but handing out the schwag is a personal goal and desired activity - I like that greeting and moment I get with everyone and look forward to it. The hoodies are separate from all other schwag and gear this year, so be sure to get your hood along with your bag - we'll have both ready, but may space it if you don't remind. All hoodies have the owner's name on the tag.
Lisa arrives and we get family dinner and then late Friday evening is usually a last run through the campground handing out schwag to the latecomers, and hopefully by the end of the evening I only have a couple or few dozen to handout still... Come tourney time it's all fishing focus until 11AM or so, then we'll get the multi-manned, multi-table scoring area rocking!
Looking forward to getting this ball rolling and am focused on getting some sleep this evening! :smt001

Antonio,
That hill is a killer, even with wheeleez. I don't plan to pull my yak up it ever again. I'm hoping we can put together some kind of shuttle to the top on either trailers or roof-tops. I'll have a "Senior Citizen" ID available upon request for a shuttle to the top.
-
Bring the Wheeleez and do tailgate-towing, Martin.
Yes, I burned up mine and Domenic's doing that, but that was like 5 miles... :smt005
Sitting on the tailgate and towing up the hill with Wheeleez is a breeze - that's the shuttle system to achieve, IMO.
-
Report from the Cove - just got a call. At least one yak salmon caught today. Wind gusting to 30-40 knots in the campground as of about 5 PM, with white caps to the beach.
I'm driving up in the morning - let's hope those forecasts are accurate and the wind lays down for us! See you all up there!

Forwarding a Shelter Cove Fishing Report received this AM:
Shelter Cove:
Captain Trent Slate of Shelter Cove Sport Fishing reported fantastic rockfishing on Wednesday’s opening day with 8 limits of quality rockfish and over 75 ling cod to 18-pounds caught and released. Slate said, “We couldn’t keep the lings off of the line, and there were uncountable numbers of 10 to 12-pounders biting everything,” adding, “Half of the rockfish limits were vermilions and coppers.” Crabbing has been very slow, and they pulled 13 pots for only 21 Dungeness crab. He thought there would be some better crabbing up north of the harbor. The winds were really blowing by the time they pulled their last pot, and Slate estimated them to be in the 25 to 30 knot range. They started out salmon trolling at the lower banks, but after 45 minutes without success and a building wind, they opted for rockfishing with great results. There have been a few salmon over 30-pounds landed in the past week out of Shelter Cove. Captain Jerad Morris and his father, local character Rodney Morris, took out the Seahawk for limits of rockfish and a 35-pound Pacific halibut.

Awesome weather this morning ... plenty of slightly over 22" lings and blacks...

Tourney Results:
It's tough to accurately complete all the tabulating and compiling, and the team works hard to pull it off. This year we had an unfortunate oversight when we left Brian Flood / TheDude out of the scoring when he should've gotten 7th place. I thank Ron Saufferer for bringing it to my attention, and sorry, Brian, for the screwup! I sent you something worthwhile in the mail - hopefully it makes up for our mistake. :smt001
First place and Sportsman of the Day for highest all release score with 635.25 was Jim Jackson / Salty. - all fish released, release bonus on two fish including a 24"+ cab
Second with 618.75 was Shannon Jay / SRJ - all fish released, release bonus on two fish including a 33" ling
Third with 607.75 was Gary Charles / Bull Shark with 2 releases including a 23.5" cab
Fourth with 599.75 was Marcos Marroquin / Rockroach with 2 releases including a 23" cab
Fifth with 598.5 was Kiet Pham / Fried Bluegill - brought in a 34.75" ling and would've won the whole enchilada if he released that ling and his 22" cab (sorry, Kiet! :smt003)
Sixth with 580 was Roland Abiva / PWD9MM
Seventh with 568.75 was Brian Flood / TheDude
Eighth with 555.5 was Jim Bennion / Cranky
Ninth was a tie at 530 between David Mason / Goldendog
and Chris Mayes / Clayman
11th - 526.25 - Erik Schmidt
12th - 521.75 - Brian Takagi
13th - 521 - Jeff Ornellas - 3 bonus releases but couldn't get a rockfish - 16.5" rocky would've won it (Sorry, JeffO! :smt003)
14th - 509 - Jeff Baker
15th - 499.25 - Aaron Rough
16th - 441.5 - Ron Saufferer
17th - 438 - Terry Saufferer
18th - 429.75 - Russ Martin
19th - 424.5 - Roger Shu
20th - 424.5 - Allen Leepin
21st - 420.25 - Kevin Johnson
22nd - 419 - Ruben Ledesma
23rd - 418.75 - James Pratt
24th - 417 - Jim Gosciminski
25th 416.5 - Tony Novelozo
Big salmon went to HobieDave Royston with a FAT 33.75" king that weighed in at a whopping 19 pounds! That's a FAT salmon!!
Big lingcod and big fish of the day went to Michael Dilbeck with his 35.5" lingcod.
There was a special prize for most unique catch of the weekend. Etienne Constable / Sackyack made a cool abalone hook pendant that went to Andy Morales / Fish Master1 for his catch of a Giant Octopus!
It was great fun to see people come in with their fish and to watch the leader board change over a few hours. I couldn't have come close to finishing the scoring process without my team. Thank you, Team! :smt001
I didn't keep track of who won what prize, but it was cool to have enough stuff to go deep to around 25th place.
-
Again, Congrats to the top ten! That was so much fun, I had a goal to place in the top ten, but the fish gods denied me a rockfish that day for whatever reason, so it wasn't meant to be :smt044 Its all good though, just being able to fish a place like Shelter Cove with all you guys was incredible. Eric, I cant thank you enough for putting this all together. And thank you for the awesome shwag bag and my dry bag I got for 13th place. Eric, if you ever find yourself down in our neck of the woods I know guys will be lining up to take you to their best fishing spots, I'll be right there in the front of the line man. Thanks again Eric, and congrats everyone.

I think you forgot to include Rancid "Two Sheds" Rob in your list of winners. He was #26, sort of like the Mr. Irrelevant in NFL drafts. He got a sweet belt rod-holster. Rob's been impossible the last few days, constantly berating his friends for finishing out of the top 26 places. Someone needs to take him down a notch.

Thanks Eric for posting the results you made my brother's day. My brother now is not only telling everybody that he beat me, but, he is also showing the results to them to prove that he beat me.

Huh??? I can see the reason for different page #, but the post number difference? :smt102

Here's the fat, homely toad that won the side bet...and the winning fish, too! :smt044
Congrats, babybassBen.
You're lucky someone didn't enter his son(s) in the side bet . . .
Amen to that..... :smt002

Don, still can't get over that photo of Noah's (or was it Kuba's? :smt102) giant cab on the trough - the thing was ginormous!

It was thick too...
impressed the locals it did... I could not believe my eyes when it came up....
These guys have gotten on trophy fish, they probably just think it's normal to nail a hawg...
It was Noah this time, he has others...
Dig the coffee sacks oh BTW, thanks for bringing them... very kool

Thank you Eric for hosting such an awesome event! Sorry for the late post but I was having trouble posting pictures. Thank you Rshu for sponsoring us also. Here's a pic of ATD's Salmon and Big Jim rescuing our lost crab pot. Thanks Big Jim! I had a great time meeting and fishing with all of you. I look forwards to next years event!

Hi Eric just wanted to say again what a great avent that was. I am still thinking about the fish I caught and the good people I got to meet and the food at the potluck was awesome. On a side note I did check the Tides garage like you said for the radio battery pack I lost that you had at the potluck but didn't find it. Would appreciate a contact that may no where it is.

Damn, Marco - sorry about that! Try Bill at The Tides. (707) 986-7900. The last I saw it was on the concrete in the corner of one of the garages, but I didn't see it when I left and had swept out the garage and sprayed down and scrubbed the entire patio. Hopefully Bill found it.
