Man, that is horrible.

Very nice guy. Got to hang out a bit at the first 2 HBC's. Not much to say beyond what already has been. But just a real, cool, laid back guy.

Just horrible.

I dont know the percentage, but my buddy and I won one a couple years back, we entered all options but did not get big fish. I believe there were 82 boats and we got a check for $750.

That was the first event of the year, and after that check, we didnt fish another event.

I really hope for the best for you Don. You and Cambria are the best people I have met through bass fishing.

Get better.

I have fished the Regal, and own a Tierra and SOL. The Tierra is my favorite spinning reel I've ever owned. SOL is nice too, but not worth it compared to the tierra.

no, "T" ing a treble is a way of bending a hook. Muskie guys do it. Especially on their high speed trolling baits. If you dont, you can wear through the clear on a fast trolled bait in minutes.

fourbizzle

if you think that fish weighs a half pound, i think you might be bummed to see your "7+" hanging on a scale, haha.

If he's having fun, what business is it of ours how much his gear is worth?

fourbizzle

first guess would be an air leak somewhere between the tank pickup and fitting on the motor. most likely the hose at a connection point, sun baked area, or the bulb itself.

I grew up in southern colorado. There are a few lakes that are worth fishing. But a 6lber is a dang big fish anywhere in colo. Navajo Reservoir mostly in NM, pretty big lake though. smallies are really coming on strong the last few years i am told John Martin Reservoir. Has the CO version on big fis...

I fished the September one last year. 82 boats I think. Payouts were really bad.

$700 for 1st including the option, but not big fish.

NEWS FLASH BIG DOGS!!!! I am a VTO, and I will be there on thursday night too. A 3 hour drive. I dont get many trips up to the CL either, this will be my second trip this year. So this isnt a "stay off the water for me" type thing, I just dont see the point in going up FOR the event, and t...

fourbizzle

Yeah, why beat it up?

I actually ended up fun fishing DURING the HBC-1 but we stayed inside the marina, which was off limits. I just think that you might as well leave the water fresh for the guys that are playing the game!

fourbizzle

Yeah, but how bout NOT beating up peoples water 6 hours before they try and win 10K off of it?

fourbizzle

It would be hard for me to chosse just one wake bait. It would have to be either the 3:16 Wake jr.or the Wake jr., or the Wake jr.

My money is on B-don, arm wrestling and weigh in.

Do work brotha Don!

There are big baits out there that can approach 100yds with an 8ft rod. Going by IPT I have made casts over 280ft with 20lb. I dont know how much line my 400's hold, but I can get 2 reels out of a 330yd filler of 30lb. So 165 yards sounds reasonable. You can easily cast half of that out. I dont know...

fourbizzle

I have two batteries for my 12vt too Don. I just alternate them in a non too accurate fashion. They are offset in ages so that one usually takes a dump about 6 months before the other one. That way when one craps out you still have a good one to use while you scrape up the cash for another new one.....

Dude, I've been around. No work. Might be moving down south. Spent a couple weekends on Casitas and the lagoon.

Get the new boat yet?

fourbizzle

they catch fish too!

fourbizzle

That was an awesome event! I had a blast, but then again, I was drinking coffee in the snack bar for most of the nasty weather

Got to meet a bunch of cool people. Special thanks to Chief for the backseat around the marina!

fourbizzle

"incompetents".......irony

fourbizzle

Neither, The loomis rods are a big deal

fourbizzle

I wouldn't. I'd pick up a real hardbait.

and for the record,

I LOVE THE VIXEN! even though i seem to like breaking them, the last one flew back and grenaded on my trolling motor shaft. tree fishing has its hazards

lets see the standn yabbie has an internal head, the huddleston does not. the standn yabbies are monochromatic baits that are the color of the injected plastic. the huddlebug is painted, amazingly well. the standn yabbie is designed to..well... stand, through the use of its internal head and the flo...

fourbizzle

I think that the difference is, or at least it is to me, that the swimbaits that are being knocked off are conceived and built by very small, often 1 man operations. They are also being ripped off by much larger companies most of the time. Its just not cool, IMO.
