Open Bay Bass 2014 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

OEX Sunset Beach · 12-04-2013, 12:06 PM

The 19th annual San Diego Anglers Open Bay Bass is set for Feb 1st

OEX is proudly sponsoring the kayak division once again this year. Ken R. got us into the top 20 last year. Let's get a kayak in the over all top 10 this year! You compete in both divisions with your $65 entry. This is a very cool BIG League fishing tournament. San Diego Anglers do amazing stuff with the proceeds all year.

print out the entry form and send it in with $65 check, disregard the need for proof of liability insurance, not required for kayaks.

Love this event. Are we going to do the Breakfast Potluck again?

JeffB · 12-04-2013, 05:03 PM

I've still yet to fish this event. I plan on making this my yr!

How are the kayakers set up in teams?

I would like to fish it but don't know that many kayakers.

I've always known the Kayakers to be individuals, I don't believe there are teams for the Kayakers

A question for past participants... would a Vittles Vault 15 or 25 size be enough to serve as a livewell in this tournament?

fishingfiend · 12-04-2013, 09:55 PM

kayakers pay an individual entry fee of $65 and we compete overall with everyone else. Minus the kayak bonus prize by OEX.

Last year was my first time and it was a great experience, minus the tough fishing conditions that day. Looking forward to another awesome event next year.

Definitely getting the day off of work for this.

Yes, I personally have the larger one, but the one you have will work. Do you already have it?

Although the rain wasn't too bad, I do hope it doesn't rain this year.

Not yet build is still on the drawing board. Trying to imagine how a 5 bass limit will look like inside and which size will fit better in the back of the P13.

Personally I like the larger of the vittle containers. I have a hook up for these that I can get you one for better than retail. I can build you one for $100. Comes complete with battery, 6 rod holders, pump and all.

I've used the coolers before and they work, but the sloshing of the water can make for an interesting paddle.

Just for this day I am making one out of a smaller igloo cooler, Pic when I am done. going on my PA 14.
Are you guys plan on cooking this year if so I will bring my 3 burner camp stove ?

I have a Hobie bait tank but it looks way too small for 5 fish.
