Calico Coastal Tournament

Monday, June 25th, 2012

Saturday, June 23, 2012
Seven FIB’er teams participated in this year’s Calico Coastal tournament. The weather was great, but the water had cooled off by nearly 10 degrees in the days leading up to the event, so I’m sure you know what that translates into…….yep, tough fishing! Most teams traveled up to Palos Verdes to fish the kelp beds and shallow boiler rocks which are usually filled with willing biters this time of year. What most found was off-colored water in the mid fifty’s and extremely slow Calico catching. We all met back at Khoury’s dock for the weigh in at 1 PM. Unfortunately only 4 of the teams weighed a 3-fish limit of Calicos.
1st place: Jim Kiech and Dave Shill – 10.66 pounds

2nd place: Tom and Val Handzus – 8.94 pounds

3rd Place: Jerry and Eric Bent – 7.68 pounds and the Big Calico of the event 4.07 pounds.

Despite the poor “catching” conditions, the fishing conditions were great and we thank God for another great day on the water together as brothers and sisters in Christ.
Our final tournament is coming up on August 4th. I hope you can join us.Photobucket

On the Water Report – Phil Diment

I should have entered the tourney – see attached photo fro Bolsa Chica reef.

We fished Bolsa Chica where I lost my anchor then went to the Flats looking for bass and cuda – very very slow day – not at all like a week ago. I should have stayed at the Bolsa Chica reef – possibly we could have caught a few more of these.
