It could rain for 40 days and 40 nights and not fill Shasta right now.

In my post above I explain the difference between the crazy alberto/modified albright and the crystal knot. It has to do with which way the tag end passes through the loop in the main line at the end.

bryanmc

Currently I/m using a double uni knot and am learning the Crazy Alberto (Berkley Crystal , Modified Albright) knot . The Crazy Alberto and the Berkley Crystal are 2 different knots. With the Crazy Alberto the tag end of the braid goes through the loop in the leader from the same side both times. Wi...

Have you tried the number on the mgm lures facebook page?

He is talking about rules for WWBT team events, not pro am's.

bryanmc

Maybe start holding the people you keep electing out there responsible?

Fact!

bryanmc

Ken, when you say you run the synthetic, are you referring to the synthetic blend or the land and sea? Both are synthetic.
Thanks

bryanmc

I tried contacting Lucas directly through their website but never got a response. Which of their 2 stroke oils (synthetic blend 2 cycle or 2 cycle land and sea) would be the preferred oil for a Mercury Optimax? I've only run Mercury DFI oil in this motor since it was new, but I can't get it around h...

Paul has done several baits for me. Always awesome work.

I have the south, looking for the west.

Steve's does excellent work. I'm glad he's local or I'd be sending my props to Phil's.

Nothing new... Alamo has been mismanaged for years. It's a shame.

bryanmc

Plan on 2 days (at least) driving each way. I-40 is just under 2000 miles and I-10 to I-20 is just over 2000 miles but it's a lot flatter than I-40. At least once you get into Texas your fuel will be a lot cheaper. You might want to check the LA forum on BBC to see if someone in the area can rent yo...

Looks like a tough day on Clear Lake, only one bag over 19 lbs.

Way to go Mike!!!

Sad to hear that. Duane was a great guy.

Like new in box I-Slide 262 in tarpon color. Thrown for 3 casts, not a mark on it. Comes with box, original hooks and rings, tail and ziploc pouch. $80 TYD paypal and insurance included http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff155/bryanmc/P2250020_zpstzllbvfa.png http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff155...

I always enjoyed Jerry's fishing reports for Shasta. Lot's of good info.

bryanmc

Just wanted to say the live stream today is awesome. Great job Gary and crew!

bryanmc

Hopefully the streaming weigh in video will be better today. I was hoping to see some old friends weigh in yesterday but the video was pretty bad. Not a knock on WWBT, everybody seems to have trouble streaming video from the hole Bridge Bay sits in.

bryanmc

Good deal Gary! Way better than another circuit that has "Western" in the name that would allow guys to enter at discounted rates at the draw to try to fill the field.

bryanmc

bass520 wrote:Gary,
How about a circuit in SoCal???

I don't live in CA anymore and I certainly can't speak for Gary, but my guess would be that your lakes in So Cal have to many restrictions, regulations and inspections to make it feasible.

bryanmc

I'll miss you Greg. Although we never met in person, we shared some pretty interesting conversations. You were who you were better than anyone else ever could have been.

bryanmc

Quicksilver is the same product, just sold by non Mercury dealers.

Probably have to wait until after the tournament is held to get the results.

bryanmc

Like to give that a swim here in Texas...

bryanmc

Wow! Great deal! About $100 under what they're going for. Hope it works out.

bryanmc

It will get pretty interesting when Game and Fish checks you and you try to explain why your boat is registered in AZ but you have a CA resident fishing license

bryanmc

Unless of course you're running software newer than about a year and a half old. That stuff went out when the new waypoint management system came in

bryanmc

That's the Humminbird adapter. Almost all modern Humminbird units use the same plug.

Nah, that place is horrible these days. It's been on a down swing for a while.

Was just wondering what lake it was. Not likely I'll be driving there from Fork any time soon

You got number 1 right for sure! Michels is an animal.

Did somebody really resurrect a 3 1/2 year old thread?

Back to back Everstart Western Division AOY titles! Now go rip 'em up at the Forrest Wood Cup!

bryanmc

Wish I could be there Kent, but it's a bit of a drive these days. Say hi to Preister for me.

bryanmc

Ummmm ok

bryanmc

Have to agree with Rick... This tournament was held on Lake Fork last Sunday. The entry fee was $150 and over 1800 people fished. Fork has a slot limit, so anything between about 2.75 and 8.50 will be in the slot and can't be weighed. That's why you'll see 2.5 pound fish win a truck. http://www.bass...

The newer 9x8 units have HD in the model name. The only difference between them and the 9x8 units before them is the led backlit screen which is brighter and easier to read in direct sunlight.

bryanmc

Interesting points on both sides. For me, If I'm fishing a tournament and there's someone fishing the bank, I'll go around the area they're fishing unless they tell me it's ok to fish through it. I can go anywhere on the lake, they're limited to where they can go. In all likelihood, that 30 yards of...

Good topic-alot of valid points made-both sides.I agree that out West much of the value is seeing and meeting good people.I miss some of my buddies that I dont see as often as I used too.But I still CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHY WON refuses to post their payouts-after the tournament?I cant sell my product...
