Your Lures Kayak Fishing Tournament Results

We had 46 anglers show up for the Paddle-Fishing.com Tournament Series Event #3. The "My Lures/Your lures". The lure exchange went off great with everyone adhering to the rules and providing some good quality bags for the lure exchange.

There was no slam caught so the winners fell back to the three largest fish caught.

First Place-Redfisher with an impressive 93.5" of redfish-$207.00
Second Place-Fishmaster892 with 90" of redfish-$124.00
Third Place-Countryboy_UCF with 74" of redfish-$83.00

SlikNik provided the winning bag of lures and won $46.00 for his efforts.

Redfisher also won a beautiful slam print donated by Jeff Harrell AKA Snookfinatic of Snookfinatic Designs. Winning that print is better than the $$ in my opinion.

Largest Redfish-Tide1on- 30 1/2" Winner of a $25.00 Hook1 gift certificate.

Largest Trout-Paddlaroun with a 23.75" trout. Winner of a $25.00 gift certificate from Holy Mackerel Tackle gift certificate.

Fly Division-We had a good showing of fly anglers but only one fish caught in tough casting conditions. Lazyloop won out with a 16.75" trout to win the $25 gift certificate from Bill Jacksons Shop for Adventure.

There were no snook caught so the gift certificate from Masthead Enterprises was raffled off. I believe SlikNik was the winner.

Big thanks to bassboy and Dick's Sporting Goods who provided some great raffle prizes. For those who did not show up to the pic-n-sip you missed out on an opportunity for some nice free stuff and an impressive performance by our own BigT as the emcee and host. To say the entire room was rolling on the floor in laughter is an understatement.

To say that yesterday's fishing conditions were cold and tough is putting it lightly. This group of anglers never ceases to impress me on their determination and skills.

Marina Del Rey 35th Halibut Derby - Results

The 35th Annual Marina Del Rey Halibut Derby held April 4th and 5th was an outstanding success.  Four Hundred thirty nine anglers competed for $60,000 in cash and prizes including a shot at a brand new Toyota Tundra Truck and exotic fishing trips to Alaska, British Columbia and Mexico

This year's MDR Halibut Derby anglers were the true loyalists, the real die hards, the great fishing patriots.  They came out despite the bad economy, high fuel prices, short sighted regulators bent on destroying recreational fishing and last years lower fish counts.  The MDRA Board of Directors salutes these anglers for their support of the 35th Annual Halibut Derby, which has become a historic tradition and which supports one of the longest and most highly respected youth fishing programs in the country.

Anticipation and excitement filled the air during last minute signups Friday and at the giant tailgate party in the parking areas Friday night.  Anglers had their boats and gear ready for an early morning assault and competition to locate and land that one monster halibut to win the fishing vacation of a lifetime, a new Toyota Truck from Marina del Rey Toyota and bragging rights for the following year.Derby anglers also proved they were real fishermen's who know how to have fun whether the fish bite or not. We definitely proved you can lead a bait to halibut, but you can't make the halibut eat!Sunny skies and a cooling breeze and slightly bumpy water ruled most of the weekend with.

Several nice halibut were brought to the scales Saturday afternoon.  Gary Maskiewicz brought in the first whopper, a 23.8 pound halibut, to start the excitement.  He was quickly followed by Barry Clayborn's 21.9 pound fish.  Then, just before the scales closed James Muro hauled a giant 41.1 pound halibut up the ramp and reshuffled the leader board.

Proud anglers posed for pictures taken by professional fishing photographer, Anna Diaz, and gave telephone interviews to 976TUNA.com and SportfishingReport.com.  When the scales closed Saturday evening everybody knew the weights on the leader board and what it may take to win the Derby on Sunday.  The leaders may have been hoping their big fish would maintain their position, while others were hoping Sunday would bring them good luck and the tournament winning giant halibut.  Even the top anglers wanted to come back the next day with bigger fish and a bigger shot at the big prizes and money.  The aroma of barbeque and the sound of laughter permeated the air of the Marina Del Rey launch area parking lot Saturday night as derby revelers and campers tail gated and shared stories of the fish landed and the monsters that got away. 

The excitement and tension built throughout Sunday morning and afternoon.  The annual April fools joke claimed a 50 plus pound halibut had been caught, and there were some believers until the very end of the weigh in when it failed to materialize.  This means the Toyota Truck will stay in the lot at Marina Del Rey Toyota.  The odds are good that some lucky angler will claim this grand prize someday soon as has been done 2 out of the last 6 years.  Every time a big fish came to the tables there were cheers from the crowd and high fives all around.  Every second toward the 3:00 PM deadline for final weigh-in the excitement increased.  Friends and family members joined the current top three leaders in a silent prayer that their halibut would remain in the top prize categories. Their prayers were answered.  Several nice halibut were weighed in late Sunday but none of them ousted the big three caught the day before.

So the official results for the 2009, 35th Annual MDR Halibut Derby are in and congratulations goes to all the winners and a hardy thanks goes to all the participants, sponsors and volunteers who made this charity event possible and successful. James Muro of Woodland Hills won top honors with his 41.1 pound halibut and selected the fishing vacation for two at the gorgeous Rivers Inlet Sportsman's Club in British Columbia.  Rivers Inlet is world famous for the huge salmon and world record for the largest Chinook salmon ever caught, 126 pounds!  Anglers flock from around the world just to experience world class salmon fishing at its very best. James and his guest will be pampered for 4 days and 3 nights at Rivers Inlet Sportsman's Club and will be treated to 3 days of fishing, gourmet meals and stunning scenery.  He also received a check for $800 to help pay for airfare between LAX and Vancouver.  

Gary Maskiewicz of Long Beach scored 2nd place with his 23.8 pound fish and selected the deluxe fishing vacation for 2 at the incredible Sitka Point Lodge in Alaska.  He and his guest will enjoy the Sitka Point Lodge for 5 days and 4 nights including all meals, all transfers to the airport, 3 days of fishing the famous waters of Alaska for huge halibut, salmon and ling cod, all fish processing and a check for $ 1,400 to help cover airfare between LAX and Sitka, Alaska.  They will also enjoy the whales, dolphins, eagles and other natural scenery famous for this area.

Barry Clayborn of Garden Grove came in 3rd with his 21.9 pound butt and won the fishing vacation for two people to Baja California’s East Cape, the Rooster Fish capital of the world, including seven days and six nights at the exotic Hotel Punta Colorada , all meals, 3 days of fishing, freezing and packing the catch, plus a check for $600 to help pay for air fare between LAX and Los Cabos, Mexico. Great prizes of rod and reel combinations were awarded to anglers with the top 4th & 10th place halibuts.  Congratulations to these winners and lucky anglers.

2nd Annual Forgotten Coast Kayak Fishing Classic - Results

The March 28th event went from tournament to raffle at 05:30 in the morning as Tournament Director Jeff Suber had to call off the event. The night before participants voted to hold the tournament under the present conditions, and there was a glimmer of hope that the high winds and rain would hold back until 2:00pm the following day. However, after making the trip from Crawfordville, through Panacea, to St George Island and having water lapping over the roads at 5:00 am, conditions warranted calling off the tournament. FCKA club members scattered out to kayak launch sites from Pepperfish Key, south of Steinhatchee, to Cape San Blas, outside Port St Joe, to let everyone know the tournament had been called at there was going to be a really good raffle at 2:00 that afternoon. There were participants that were freshwater fishing also and many were in locations that could not be reached by cell phone, however, all participants returned to Medart , FL to a low country shrimp boil, camaraderie, and a really good raffle with lots of prizes including 6 brand new kayaks. Folks traveled in from New York , New Jersey and many from Virginia , and Mobile , AL . Over 130 anglers attended this years event to benefit the Wakulla County Senior Services Center and RH Carter, the Director was very pleased with the turnout and the enthusiasm of the many anglers attending the event. In addition to the many raffle prizes, one lucky lady at he Elder Care Center received a wheel chair with wheel locks donated by www.saferwheelchairs.com

2009 Jacksonville Kayak Fishing Classic Tournament

JACKSONVILLE, FL - MAY 5, 2009 – The kids at Daniel Memorial, Florida’s oldest children’s services agency, won big at the 2009 Columbia Sportswear Kayak Fishing Classic as 430 kayak anglers raised over $43,000 for danielKids and the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation. The catch-photo-release charity event, run by JaxKayakFishing.com, is the world’s largest kayak fishing event for the fourth consecutive year.

"We are thrilled to be associated with such a world-class event, and want to thank the kayak anglers, the sponsors, and everyone that made the Classic happen for their generous support ", said Jimmy Kelly, Daniel’s director of development. Tournament director Mike Kogan stated, “We are overwhelmed at the incredible turnout – even in these challenging economic times the surge in participation from the anglers and sponsors points to continued strong growth for kayak fishing.”

The 2009 Classic was led by the title sponsorship of Columbia Sportswear, whose focus on products that allow people to enjoy the outdoors longer and more comfortably was a perfect match for kayak fishing. According to Columbia Sportwear VP of Global Sales Mitch Fields, “Our Performance Fishing Gear like our new Blood & Guts line is ideal for kayak anglers who are on the water all day – they get UPF protection up to 50 with Omni Shade technology, venting for comfort and cooling, and a performance fabric which repels and releases stains.”

Columbia was joined by other industry leaders such as Hobie Kayaks, Malibu Kayaks, Wilderness Systems, Ocean Kayaks, Shimano, Pure Fishing, and Costa Del Mar. The Classic also pulled together all of Northeast Florida’s kayak and fishing retailers led by Strike-Zone Fishing, Black Creek Outfitters, Gander Mountain, All Wet Sports, West Marine, and Dick's Sporting Goods to name just a few of the over 100 sponsors. Kogan related “the great efforts of our volunteers and the kayak fishing community combined with the generosity of our terrific sponsors have made this event an unqualified success – and the fishing was sensational.”

Roger Bump of Jacksonville, FL claimed the top prize for the second year in a row in the slam division, winning a fully-rigged Hobie Mirage Pro Angler fishing kayak. He found all his fish in the Mill Cove area en route to his record-setting 69.8” winning slam, which consisted of a 27” red, a 26” trout, and a 16.7” flounder. Bump was closely followed by Jacksonville’s Robert Murray with 65.75”, Jon Ward of Riverview, FL with 60.5”, Jacksonville’s Adam Boyd with 60.1”, and Daniel Hunter of Jacksonville with 58.8”.

Erick Bell, a member of Team Wilderness Systems from Concord, NC, won the trout division with a personal best 27.65” gator trout. In an outstanding display of generosity and sportsmanship Mr. Bell donated his 1st place prize Ocean Kayak Trident to Daniel to raise more funds for Florida’s oldest children’s services organization.

Top redfish honors went to Jacksonville’s John Chapman with a 30.2” red and he scored a Malibu Stealth kayak. Leading the way in the flounder category was Chuck Ray of Neptune Beach, FL with a 21.6” flattie that was good for a Viking ProFish kayak. All winners and placers also received gift certificates from Strike-Zone Fishing, Black Creek Outfitters, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Kayak Fishing Supplies.Com, and subscriptions to Florida Sportfishing and Gaff magazines.

Luke Shaw won Junior Angler and expecting mother Sarah Carpenter won Lady Angler. Gus Bianchi took Senior Angler honors, and Russell Fissette was top Fly Angler and placed fifth in the Redfish division.

Special thanks go out to the volunteers and over 100 sponsors who supported the Classic including: Columbia Sportswear, Strike Zone Fishing, BlackCreek Outfitters, Gander Mountain, Hobie Kayaks, Costa Del Mar, Malibu Kayaks, Shimano, West Marine, Viking Kayaks, Emotion Kayaks, Advanced Elements, FreedomHawk Kayaks, Wilderness Systems Kayaks, Ocean Kayaks, Native Watercraft, Accent Paddles, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Black Fly Outfitter, All Wet Sports, XTOOLS, Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation, Berkley, Great Atlantic Outfitters, Slayer Lures, Thule, Bending Branches, Florida Kayak Fishing, Outdoors Show, Florida Fishing Weekly, BullFrog, Mirrolure, Daiwa, DOA Lures, Calcutta, Crack of Dawn, MTI, Surf To Summit, Malone Auto Racks, Lowrance, KayakFishingSupplies.Com, Kayak Amelia, Florida Sportsman, Kayak Fisherman Magazine, B&M Bait&Tackle, Talic, RAM, Polar Bear Coolers, Otter Box, Scotty Rod Holders, Daiichi Hooks, Hook1, GearKeeper, Pier 17, Slayer Lures, Fishbites, ThermaCELL, Penn Fishing, Exude Mister Twister, Kayak Angler Magazine, Stohlquist, Fish-N-Drinks.Com, AquaEast, Bite-A-Bait, Wheeleez, FlyFishJax.Com, EvergladesKayakFishing.Com, Extrasport, Carlisle, Ugly Braid, Tilley Hats, 3rd Grip CrateMate, Precision Pak, Spot Personal Locator, 321Fish.Com, Dri-Grip Sunscreen, Fisherman’s Seafood & Bait, YakLife.Com, TTI-Blakemore Fishing Group, AT Paddles, Wang Anchors, Yak-Gear.Com, Skwoosh, R.L.

Number of Kayak Anglers-80

Winners:

Main division
1st- Marty Mood, Team Hobie-32" Stripped Bass 

Kids Division
1st- Caiden Shea, 11-26" Stripped Bass

4th Annual Maine Kayak Fishing Tournament was July 17th-19th. The tournament kicked off with a Free Kayak Fishing Friday hosted by all of our 2009 sponsors and the Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. The action continued throughout the weekend with 80 anglers competing in the two-day kayak fishing tournament in beautiful, mid-coast Maine!  Young kids and seasoned anglers attempted to stake claim to catching the biggest striper on four scenic rivers. Kayak anglers headed out onto the Sheepscot, Kennebec, Androscoggin, and New Meadows Rivers. With a specific division just for kids and prizes for every youth participant we hoped to promote the sport of kayak fishing to our youth. This was a catch and release tournament that benefited the Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife "Hooked on Fishing Program" which is a program of the Future Fisherman Foundation (non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization). Kayaking teams included sponsored kayak angling teams from all over the country. Boat prizes, gear giveaways, and much more! For more tournament information and updates login to WWW.MAINEKAYAKFISHING.COM  Again, we would like to thank our major sponsors: Seaspray Kayaking, Ocean Kayak, Hogy Lures, Kokotat , Malone of Maine, Bending Branches, Aquabound, Patagonia, Gilmores Seafood, MTI Adventurewear and Talic Stands.
