I am pleased to announce the...
First (annual? Not likely) Pistolero Lobster Challenge.
Think you've got the chops? Think you kow how to catch BIG lobster? PROOVE IT I am sorta pleased to announce the first Pistolero Lobster Challenge.. A 3-4 month ish tournament to see who really is the King of Bugs. The rules are prety simple: Freedive only, biggest bug wins, $5 gets you in because you have to have skin in the game, winner takes most, blah blah blah (detailed below). Winner to be announced March 19at the Pistoleros Lobster Mixer and White Seabass Mixer/Challenge/Kickoff Party. Details: The contest is fairly simple: catch the largest lobster between when you register and the end of lobster season, and you win. Reg fee is 5 bucks via paypal at pistolerosfreedive@gmail.com. FREEDIVE ONLY. All lobster MUST be caught LEGALLY. Submit as many bugss as you want. To submit a lobster, you must have a picture of the lobster on a certified scale. All submissions will be subject to review by the Pistoleros board for authenticity so don't try and BS us. 51% of the pot goes to the winner along with a decent to amazing prize package (looking like a wetsuit or gun at this point... don't sweat it, it will be nice), 49% goes to a later event. Winners (1st, 2nd and third loser) will be announced on March 19 at the pistoleros White Seabass Clinic. "What's the pistoleros WSB clinic?" you ask... I'm glad you did.. On March 19, there will be talks given by several accomplished WSB speakers on the topic of hunting southern California's premium gamefish to help new spearos improve their game and experienced spearos get even better yet. There will also be a small raffle, BEER, decent food, and great company. This event will be open to anyone regardless if they entered into the bug challenge or not. There will also be an announcement of another event. Bigger. Much Bigger. A tribute event. More on that later. That is all. (Flier should be up shortly as I am having a b**** of a time uploading it right now) |

Fair enough question. This is part of a larger program. Two smaller, months long type events leading up to a larger single day "once in a lifetime" event along the lines of the "Legends of Spearfishing" event we did a few years back. These smaller events will help us build up the momentum and resources we need to pull it off. If you are not familiar with the Legends, we held an event where we provided food and beer for over 300 members of the community and flew in a bunch of the original members of our tribe, many who have since passed away, to speak. All free of charge. So enter this one, or don't: You will still be welcome at the future event. |

Re: I am pleased to announce the...
Thanks. Though I am personally of the opinion that the reason Mainlame is crying is that he got the one and ONLY big freedive bug he's ever gotten before the event was announced and won't enter because he knows all the other entrants will make him their b****. That's why he is complaining about it not running the length of the entire season. One bug wonder, that mainlame. Prove me wrong mainlame, prove me wrong. (MAINPHRAME JUST GOT CALLED OUT) |

Re: I am pleased to announce the...
Which is why Dave is going to make you all look bad lol. (Providing he puts in some effort)
I'd of liked to see it you get to make a limit out of your biggest 7 from the season. But that wouldn't help anyone but Dave bahaha.
