Western Outdoor Times - Times Spent Outdoors: Priceless!

Day At The Docks Cancelled

Letter From Peggy Couvrette

Hi, Arizona Anglers,

We had hoped to be in a position to host the annual Port of San Diego's Day At the Docks in April 2022. However, the Covid pandemic disruption has had a major impact on our underlying funding sources. And while we have explored potential alternative funding sources for 2022, it is now apparent that those resources will not be available in time for an event this spring.

We continue to celebrate the vibrant and resilient San Diego sportfishing fleet, its captains and crews, anglers and their families, tackle suppliers and manufacturers, and the many businesses and community members that love fishing and so generously support and promote the fleet and the sport.

Establishing alternative funding sources that will provide us with the ability to proceed with more certainty in the future is a priority. As those plans develop, we will keep you informed.

As we write this, the fleet is reporting the first local catches of bluefin tuna within 1 day and 1.5 day range. The season looks promising.

We hope you take advantage of it!

We appreciate all of your efforts to promote the sport. The Southern California sportfishing season is just beginning, and it looks like it will be very productive!

Plan your trips with family and friends - Book your fishing dates. And get your tackle in order - We hope to see you on the water!
