Next year I think we will add a two day to the Island!!!! Rumor is we were going away, couldn't be further from the truth!!! If you want truth, honor, friendship and camaraderie in a inshore tournament format, look no further! We are not going anywhere so don't let anyone effect your mood! We want up beat, outgoing, competitive teams on board for WEST next year!!! If you feel lost, abandoned or just mistreated with other organizations, this is your home. Looking forward to our last event and even bigger things in our future!!!

Round 4 is in the books!!!!

Congratulations to Team Ballast Point Spirits Fishing Team (Mike Lane and Scott Pethtel) for winning event #4 hosted by Ballast Point Brewery and Restaurant in Long Beach!! They weighed a 5 fish limit of Calico bass that went 25.38 pounds just barely edging out Team Schwifty (Anthony Harris and Nick Green) for the top honors. Third place went to Team ShipFaced (Gary Reyes and Jay Jones). We had an amazing time at the new Restaurant, we will be utilizing this venue in the futu...re! We appreciate all the anglers and staff for stepping up and making this event successful! As you know, our tournament directors were stuck for this event by the massive Blue Cut Fire and could not make it down the mountain. We also want to thank the entire Angler Chronicles crew for all their help with set up and weigh in. The next stop will be round 5 at the Bali High in San Diego Bay, we will see you all there!!!

Angler Chronicles had an awesome time covering the 4th event of the WEST (Western Elite Saltwater Tournaments) series yesterday. The weather was up but the fishing was great! Plenty of BIG Calico Bass came to the weigh-in; some over 8 pounds! As is the tradition of these tournaments, all Calico Bass are released to fight another day. Excellent venue was chosen for this event, the NEW Ballast Point Brewing & Spirits in Long Beach, California provided unsurpassed hospitality an...d service for the event. The food was very tasty! Stay tuned for an upcoming episode of Angler Chronicles to be aired on Fox Sports WEST & Prime Ticket networks coming soon! Special THANKS to: Cliff Friend (Chase Boat Captain), Ron Hobbs (Angler Chronicles), Tony Williams (Bite On Fishing), Tom & Valerie Handzus, Rhonda Fainsztein, and Tim Hass (General Manager, Ballast Point Brewing & Spirits) ... More photos of the event will follow All Directions Point to WEST! See more

Well, it's now official and both Bear and I won't be able to make it down tomorrow for Round 4. Due to the fire Wrightwood is "evacuated" but I chose to stay and do what I can to help. Roads are shut down and not expected to open up until late tomorrow. I APOLOGIZE but there, truly, no option. I leave WW and I can't come back in. Plus inorder to get to Long Beach it would be 250 miles each way and I still couldn't get back. Will look towards Round 5 and be there for ...sure. BE SAFE, CATCH BIG BAGS AND WE'LL BE WATCHING. Skidave

Round 4 is this Saturday hosted by Ballast Point Brewery and Kitchen in Los Alamitos Bay! Tournament changes for this event have been put up in West Wing, please give it a look over.

Please look your best and bring plenty of Go Pro's and batteries as Angler Chronicles will be on site shooting for round 4!! We will see you all very soon!
