We should do that a lot this year and just chill.

No Freshkats.com for LRC for 2016 so please remove Pat.
I am talking with the 18" crappie king to do a MBF and a possible Hobie demo day at Rollins in May. Maybe he'll do a crappie event and we can do a beach n beers fish fry.

I'd be willing to host one of these in my backyard if you guys are willing.

Thanks Pat. Albion is the last weekend in July 2016

Hi Pat,

Thanks...

King of the Port MBF in December

Working on the first sand dab slam down in Monterey in Feb.Still working on details.

Thank you for the list Pat!

As far as events and tournaments go, they require a great amount of effort and I commend all those that host events. I would like to see more Fish and Chill events.

What is required to host a fish and chill? It would be nice to have one somewhere in Sonoma county......
