JBay 2012

[tufnik]

If I may ask. What's so special about this tournament that would have you drive over five hours to get there and stay overnight or so? Is it the enclosed and protected Bay waters from the Ocean? Is it the variety of species in the Bay? The prizes? It's better than TKAA's tournament? The number of participants? Or maybe it's just a nice vacation spot that's not too far away?

It's awesome. Chance at tiderunner weakfish (10+lbs), ocean run bluefish bigger than you'll ever see in this bay... (30"+), 40"+stripers and fluke.

Oh, and 300+ kayakers. :-)

I'll try to post it up as soon as I see it go active. If you're attending for the first time I'd appreciate you putting my name as the person that referred you! They challenged me to bring 10 new faces this year, I think we can beat that!!!

I fished the tournament a few times when it was run by kayak fishing stuff, going back 4 years or more I think. Do I still count as a new face?

[Redfish12]

Haha maybe? Did you ever catch a weakfish in there? I think I'm going to fish for fluke the most this year, maybe tog... we'll see.
