Lots of great sponsors this year, new comers, and the water is in the lower 70's....Nice!
I wouldn't worry too much about bait, I will put in a call to Tim Athens on Outerbanks and have him swing by Smuggler's with the squid.
Primary check in will be at Smuggler's anchorage on Santa Cruz island Saturday morning from 6am on...
Upon check in, you will have the oppertunity to enter the fishing derby which will be $30.00 per angler. Children under the age of 13 will be entered for free as long as their is an adult angler(s) who entered the tournament and paid aboard. This is a 100% payback deal for the anglers who get lucky and land their fish in the slot that will pay. 4 Fish speicies will be randomly drawn, along with the weight. Nobody will know the winner until Noon on Sunday when the winning speicies and weight will be drawn. The speicies to be drawn are White Sea Bass, Halibut, Yellowtail, and Calico. The first speicies drawn will be the 1st place fish, followed by a randomly drawn weight. The second species out of the hat will be 2nd place, and the 3rd is 3rd..
Fishing starts after check in Saturday morning, and stops at 2pm Saturday for festivities. Everyone must check in with me or Jsea at or before 2pm. Fishing can resume after the last contest is complete, until 11:00 am Sunday.
At around 11:00 on saturday, the games and libations begin back at the "camp" or chosen anchorage. Trophies and prizes will be awarded to the following champions in the following catagories;
Arse Cracker contest..(largest cannonball via audience applause)
Bikini Contest... (walk the plank and strut your stuff, loudest applause determines the winner)
Chugging contest... (The first person to successfully consume a libation and place the cup upon their head.) Depending upon the feild, there may be finalist that will have to Chugg it out*
Salty Chef Challenge... (Break out your best and pass it around for everyone to sample. this winner will be determined prior to weigh in on Sunday.)
*** NEW CHALLENGE FOR CPFO III ***
Treasure Hunt...
Somewhere on the Island will be a new "Prize" donated by yours truly. While out fishing, keep a sharp eye out for a "Message in a Bottle" floating near the area. This bottle will contain a treasure map. Find the bottle, follow the map and capture the treasure! There will be 3 bottles with the same map, all floating within 10 miles of the anchorage. First one to reach the treasure wins. Good luck!
Saturday evening the barb-q's and Tiki torches fire up for a great evening of commrodery, food and Libations. Motor on in, and tie up!
A bow-stern-bow-stern ect... alligns decks well for boat hopping and visiting. Bring extra bumpers and rope, Inner tubes work the best, lots of coosh.
Don't forget the Tiki torches!
On Sunday...
Payouts for winning anglers will be
60% for 1st
25% for second
15%for 3rd...
Trophy and prize for 4th...
Anyone who catches a fish can win!
Those who enter the fishing Derby will recieve 5 raffle tickets for great prizes given away on Saturday evening back at the anchorage. Those who partake in the daytime contests will also recieve 2 additional raffle tickets for each event entered, and the winners will recieve another 5 tickets. Daytime contests will tenatively start at 2PM back at Smuggler's anchorage.
This year is going to be unbelievable!
Jsea, I am in a bit of a rush, headed back out for a few days, will be back friday sometime. Can you assist with the specifics and refresh what the contests are, ect....?
