Been doing a lot of work on the AOTY/DOTY boards the last few days, and don't think anyone ever announced that RAYDON is the Sailing Angler Of The Year for the 2nd year in a row!!!

http://aoty.norcalkayakanglers.com/leaderboard/saillist2015

Raydon, I hope you can make it to the Awards on 2/6...bring your plaque so we can give it back to you again!!

 :smt003

Maybe this year will be the year some of the other sailing guys give you a run for the title?!??

Congrats again buddy!!!

 :smt006

Sincerely,

Jim

Uhhh...I couldn't figure out how to a sail a kayak if I tried.  :smt005

Multiple people asked for yaks with sails to be allowed, we added a sailing category, I got a prize plaque from Piscean, so far Raydon has been the only one to step up and get it done.

You're welcome to try and take his title from him Jimbo...

What consists of sailing? If I open up my jacket and catch some wind with my huge jacket I could sail away far!  :smt005 Are fish not accepted by Sail in AoTY? I am going to give a go this year just to get my boys into it also! Hell I could make a sail for each of them to and they could win the JSAOTY!  :smt005

1. All fish entered must be caught by hook and line (i.e. hooked, fought, and landed) from a kayak without aid from anyone else and using methods deemed legal by the California Department of Fish and Game. Sails will be allowed in the Sail division but no motors may be used or attached to the kayak while fishing.

I'd love to actually track some AOTY fish...but for whatever reason can't get off my bike long enough to fish.
