These programs are designed to help make adults and children aware of the importance of a healthy and clean environment. The JCAA Youth Education Committee promotes programs to introduce young people to fishing as a worthwhile hobby. Idle time can be used for fishing related activities rather than engaging in something undesirable such as drug or alcohol use. If you do not plan to fish in the tournament, we could use your help. We need owners of 4-wheel drive vehicles to volunteer as beach judges to measure the fish caught by tournament contestants.
Judges are vital to allow the tournament to run smoothly and without problems.
There will be a limited number of these special items from Canyon Gear. The hats come with a special embroidered striped bass tournament logo. The t-shirts come with a printed pocket and a special 8 th Annual Governor's Surf Fishing Tournament design on the back. BOW participants who fish in the Tournament will have a chance to compete for a special award for the largest fish among their group.
