Bummer John. What sort of "tagging issues" did you encounter?

jwick22 · Post by **jwick22** » Thu Dec 29, 2011 3:12 pm

Sorry Guys....

Tagging issues.....Basically what I mean is guys don't wanna lose there tag to fish Perris and then have to go through the wait period to get back on DVL....With a tournament each weekend at dvl guys have to choose.....Just not worth it.....After talking to Brian Hess....This is what we decided.....Sorry to the guys such as Pete and Brian who wanted to fish Perris.....

Hope to see you guys January 28th......Give us a shot.....

See ya soon!

There is no Quarintine period if you fish Perris and then go to DVl as both have no Quagga's and inspections. Trying to build on a 9 boat field for the 2nd derby of the year does stand a better chance at DVl then Perris though as Perris is only 9-11 boats ever no matter who has a derby there. Too bad though, better fishing at Perris than DVl right now and in January also. Rick G.

Thanks for clearing that up Rick

Is DVL honoring any other lakes tags? Last time I was there, they said they were considering it.

No they do not share tags at this time. But again, unless you are going on a day that is raining, if you take your time and clean and dry your boat the CORRECT way, the DVL inspections are very fair and easy to pass. Rick G.

Thanks for clearing that up Rick. I was wondering what he meant by "losing their tag." There is a difference between being "tagged" and being "locked in". As of now I believe Casitas is the only lake in SoCal where you are locked in. Some of you Tournament directors need to get out all of the proper information to the anglers.

Like Rick said, there is no quarantine period at DVL, UNLESS your boat has been in a Quagga/Zebra infested body of water (Perris is not one of them). You can check their website (http://www.dvmarina.com). My experience there is the inspectors are friendly, and don't go out of their way to "fail" you. If you are clean and dry, you get in - if your live wells and bilge have dirt/debris and are wet, you don't. Don't forget to check the threads on the drain plug also.

I have never had a problem at DVL, just show up Clean and Dry and I breeze right in... I was concerned something may have changed. Last time I was there and chatting with the inspector, he said they were considering honoring some of the other lake's tags in the future.

I think all John were saying that the some guys don't like to give up their tag once they get it on their boat. At least he out there talking to some of the guys and taking what they say to heart. I like his effort.

It's a fact that once you are tagged you do not have to worry about having a day ruined by a little rain or fog. Having the tag makes going fishing a lot easier. While many guys have it wired and don't have such concerns, some guys do. And some do get turned around. So having your boat tagged does keep people from fishing lakes elsewhere.

I assumed Pete was making the same comment and wanting it to be on Perris as he is tagged there, and not wanting to yet "make the switch" to DVL and get his tag there.

Getting clean and dry is a bit easier at Perris then DVL thats for sure. They dont make you lower your motor at Perris for instance.... But other than that, clean and dry is clean and dry.

The whole tag thing is a hassle because in the Winter its harder to be completely dry. Its VERY tough to fish at Perris one day then DVL the next day in the Winter.....VERY TOUGH.
I WISH they'd honor each others tags....Makes no sense to me that they dont!!!
Ill be spending 3-4 hours getting the boat dry before the next NBW event at DVL....Thats how long it usually takes to make sure everythings dry dry dry... It sucks but it is what it is...
