San Diego Anglers Now on Facebook
On Jan. 13, 2013 the San Diego Anglers went live on Facebook.
Social Media has become a great resource for sharing information on a timely basis. The San Diego Anglers is committed to providing efficient and up to date information to the club members, and social media is one way to do it. Many social media sites are extremely user-friendly, allowing various generations to use them.
The other forms of communication the San Diego Anglers currently utilizes include the offical club website at www.sandiegoanglers.com and a monthly club newsletter.
We intend to use social media to notify the fishing community and club members with timely information, but the Facebook page also allow club members to post fish stories, picture, videos, fish catch reports and other fishing related information in an easy to use site.
Like the San Diego Anglers."Effective communication mandates that we have as much contact with the fishing community and club members as possible. Facebook is a form of social media that will help us accomplish our goals of being the most accessible fishing club that we can be,” said Louis Almeida, SDA Director of Public Affairs.
2013 Club Fishing Charters
The fishing charters are selling out fast. Remember last year a number of club members were not able to make it as the charters sold out so fast we had a waiting list by the May meeting. So make sure to pay your deposits at the May meeting in order to hold your spot. I have noticed a number of members have already paid their charter fees for the year. This makes it much easier for the Charter Master (Dwayne Patenaude) as he does not have to worry about collecting charter fees the day of the trip.

SUSAN JOHNSON MEMORIAL/MISSION BAY BASS TOURNAMENT
Saturday, February 23, 2013 - It was cold; ice on the truck window and on the stern of the “Copout” at 4:30 AM. We met everyone at South Shores Launch Ramp in Mission Bay. Bill Hokstad’s crew had some “Cop Food” and I had a glazed one and supplied some hot coffee. Even with this warming repast I still had trouble tying the knot to replace some line on William Proctors’ Spinning reel. Al Staz’s engine wouldn’t start and his crew (Tyler Robinson and Kevin Anderson) returned to fish and compete on their Kayaks. A total of 18 anglers fished the tourna-ment including 1 junior angler, 7 boats and 3 kayaks. Richard and Zella Burk provided gourmet black bean chili, hot chicken legs and rich desserts at the weigh-in. John Otto (who is doing and looking much better) took the photographs. Louis Almeida did the set-up and helped with the weigh-in using the table scale which reads in pounds and ounces.
Steve Johnson, last year’s winner, could not fish the tournament this year because of prior obligations. Steve brought the perennial plaque to be presented to this year’s winner. Steve had laminated the back of the plaque with some photographs of Susan where she was happiest, fishing on Steve’s boat.
Susan was sadly taken from us two years ago. She was president of the San Diego Anglers in 2002 and joined the club with her husband Steve in 1998. Susan was always a positive influence in the club and a good friend of everyone she met. Susan was on the board of directors in 2000 and it was her idea to have a Bay Bass Tournament on Mission Bay. The first Mission Bay Tournament was in November of 2000. The tourna-ment has been one of the most popular and highly attended since.

HALIBUT TOURNAMENT
Saturday, April 13, 2013 - Well we finally had a Halibut tournament after a two year hiatus. We had decent weather and a great meal prepared by Zella and Richard Burk. The tournament was well attended with over 30 club members showing up for the weigh-in and BBQ afterwards Well here are the results. Yes, there was only one Halibut caught by club member Tim Gunter and he did not even enter the jackpot, so the jackpot was held by a random drawing, with Richard Burk taking the jackpot prize.
Junior Division:
1st: None
2nd: None
3rd: None
Adult Division:
1st: Tim Gunter. He won $200.00.
