Hey SoCal guys,

Our next pierfishing derby is Jan. 30 at Huntington Beach Pier from 9AM to 1PM to benefit UPSAC's outreach and conservation efforts. Not only will you be helping a worthy organization, it'll be a chance to meet your fellow pier rats and to engage in some friendly competition. There's no food for the event so you'll have to bring your own lunch, but we'll have a raffle for some nice prizes. In addition, we'll be handing out 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place ribbons/certificates to the winners. So please reply and let us know if you'll make it!

Place: Huntington Beach Pier
Date/Time: Saturday, Jan. 30, 9AM to 1PM
Entry Fee: $10 (includes bait, while supplies last, and 1 raffle ticket)

Raffle Prizes: These guys believe in what UPSAC's all about and we appreciate their support.

- voucher for 2 on a half-day or twilight boat out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing
- reel/rod combos from Wylie's Bait Shop
- lure/jig packs from Sunrize Tackle/Big Hammer

Eugene, I have heard so much negative posting about Huntington Beach in other posting. Will we run into problems when we are having a derby there. Will we have any problems and be safe if we stay on fishing after the derby (which we usually do.)

Having fished Huntington only a couple times, I can't really say what the general atmosphere is there. I've read about the problems between fishermen and surfers, but my personal feeling is that it's only escalated by a select few on each side. Both times I fished there were in the evening and I didn't experience any problems at all.

It's up to you guys--if the majority wants to go somewhere else, we'll move. My vote is to keep it as is.

I say we keep it at Huntington as well. I doubt anyone will try or say anything with all of us there in the same group. That would be just plain foolish haha
