Tournament Info

Surf Fishing Report:

     Congratulations to all who were drawn to fill positions on our fall surf fishing tournament teams at our March meeting!  It looks like we have some really good teams.  The tournaments are always a lot of fun, and I am already looking forward to them.  The fishing season will soon be upon us so don’t forget to fit some days of surf fishing into your fishing schedules.  Also, there are usually only a limited number of fish turned in to the prize fish committee in the surf category.  Remember that the club awards The Jay Smith Award and The Gene Farrar Award for the top male and top female surf fishing anglers of the year.  These were two great guys that did a lot for our club over the years, and we need to make these awards meaningful.  We have a lot of places such as Chic’s Beach, Lynnhaven Inlet, the ocean front, Sandbridge and Backbay National Wildlife Refuge that are accessible to surf fish.  Good Luck to each of you as you move into the fishing season, and I hope to see you on the beach! 

Tight Lines!!

Hunt for HardHeads Tournament

Date: May, 2010

CONGRATULATIONS VBAC Tournament Teams!!!

Our club was represented by three boats in the Fishing for Hard Heads Club challenge last month. Your teams fished hard, and thanks the team on Captains Rich McGuire’s boat, VBAC took the trophy and bragging rights for first place!!!
Rumor has it that the club’s fate was almost doomed yet again thanks to the troubles we seem to have with blue fish. Club member Ed Buckley, while putting up a fierce and tiring battle with a chopper who ripped into a deftly placed cut bait, was unable to boat the monster once the battle ended at the side of the boat. The fisherman and fish were clearly both exhausted at battles end, unfortunately for our team, Big Blue had one more burst of adrenaline left and spit the hook before Ed could boat the beast. All the crew could do was watch as the 6 ounce blue (the only one that would have been caught that day) slipped down the depths of the murkish waters.
But our Captain McGuire saved the day and the club by boating the top three hard heads of the day. After some wily work with the ruler, Bob Lee and committee were able to declare VBAC winners. In fact so impressed was the rules committee with Rich’s catch, they wanted to award him both first and second place. Our classy captain declined the additional honors, requesting that others be recognized for their efforts!
