This just happened to me with a sport bike. I told the seller to go fly a kite!

Thanks guys for the info. I guess Ill just play it by ear.
Im fishing Anglers Choice.

This coming Sat. I have my first tournament. After you head back from fishing and pull up to the dock do you bag the fish while the boat is still in the water?? I was just watching bassmaster and they had the boat out of the water and were pulling the fish out of the live well. Is this the norm? Tha...

Cost is super high. I run a 03 520 with seven rod set ups going 400.00 each. But that stuff to me is a givin. Those things are my tools I use in this sport.
The problem with me is tackle, gas, oil, insurance, storage. I would say Im spending about 800.00 a month for those things.

Its between Oroville outdoors and them. They are both awesome!

biteme

Congrats man! Looks like a awesome summer!

For a reel I would go with a Daiwa Black Widow II. I just bought one of these and Im VERY impressed!! For the price you cant go wrong.
Rod, Shimano

biteme

The problem is Im hooked on jiggin! I cant put the rod down!! I cought a decent # yesterday but I think about the fish I lost and not knowing what size those fish were is killing me,lol. I do know one thing. The Jig seems to bring bigger fish! The bait monkey is loving me

biteme

Woah woah slow down

biteme

Do you use scent with jigs? Thinking about trying to Bang craw scent. Just to get them to hold on a sec longer.

biteme

How do you guys fish your jigs? Whats your hook up rate? I was fishing Jigs yesterday and cought about 40 fish on them. But I missed a lot of fish. Seems like I have my hook set down pretty well. But it seems like a lot of fish are picking it up and setting it down. I cut the weed guard off and that...

I just bought a Powell 701 for darter/shakey heads. I really cannot believe how light this rod is. I used it yesterday at Clear Lake. Don't think you can go wrong with any of the Powell rods. NoCAL I agree. I love the Powell line. I was fishing with a buddy yesterday hes a Shimano guy. I had him ho...

Lol that was right before I put the boat on the trailer. Dont hate.

This is a easy one. I fished nine hours today. I got home and my trolling volt meter read this, FULL charge. Stayncharge rocks!

Piece of cake guys! Thanks for the help. My motor didnt have a cotter pin on the prop. It uses a ring right before the nut. Its crazy how much fishing line your prop picks up. I just had the thing serviced and it had a bunch!

biteme

I need to change the prop on my 03 opti. 225. The prop is coming in today and my boat is about a hour away so I want to make sure I have the right took before making the trip. Last time I looked at it, it looks like its just a keeper and a large socket. Is this right?

biteme

Hmmm is this the right one?

biteme

Thanks cooch.

Im starting to notice some scuffs from my trailer roller up front on the bow. Im thinking about buying a Keel Shield from KeelShield.com Does anyone have one of these? looking for feedback before I buy. Thanks!

biteme

Green pumpkin with black flake. Do they make any other colors

biteme

Hey Biteme, I just saw in the classifeds were your selling your 36- T/M. Just so you know, there are alot of 36volt 520's out there :D :D :D I would give the catz at C&C a call, I'm sure you could get all the answers for your up grade :D :D :D or even get it done at there shop. :D :D :D (the wa...

Im making the swap from a Minn kota to a motor guide. I see nothing connected to my Minn Kota but the old owner has a clamp with a transducer on the motor guide. Could my transducer be located somewhere else? I have a 03 ranger 520 with a lowrance on the front deck.

biteme

Was is broke right below the bend? Thats where mine snapped.

biteme

Ive also been bummed with the way they hold up. I bought a spinner bait by them and after using it for about two hours and catching three fish the wire broke in half. Sux because I REALLY loved the bait.

biteme

I was the OP in the other thread. I cought LM last year but havent seen any this year. In the last couple months a buddy and I have cought about 275 fish out of that lake. Out of all those fish two were sm mouth. and the rest were spots. BUT I cant really say Ive been setting out to target them. My ...

Fil Torres runs the Gold City division and you can call Oroville Outdoors to get in touch with him or just check the Anglers Choice web site. The next tournament is on 6/2/07, entry is $175.00 plus there are options and they pay 1 in 5. Alax Thats who I spoke with yesterday. What does 1 in 5 mean? ...

biteme

I know I wanted em bad!!! Ive been keeping my eyes open. Someone else was selling some but it was a little more. If you want I can pull up the PM that was sent to me.

biteme

Lol, sorry, Im not Tony. I was just one of the guys trying to buy em. Just thought I would post so that way you knew.

biteme

They are all sold. I emailed him about the rods the same day and wanted all of them. Someone beat me to em. I dunno why he didnt take the AD down.

biteme

I would get in touch with Danny Peluso or Terry Davis. They can splain all this stuff to you. I fish Terry's circuit and he pays 1 in 5. I don't know the percentages. We only have one event left in the Foothills div. It's at the end of June on Oroville, but there are many others to choose from. Goo...

biteme

Im just trying to get my first time in. Ill fish whatever as long as its that lake :wink: I just want my first to be there and then and then I'll feel it out from there. The one on 6/2 says AC gold city, Team. I hope I get some guys to chime in. I called Anglers choice and got a little info but bein...

Centerfolds or the bait shop?

biteme

Thinking about jumping in anglers choice for a upcoming tournament. This would be my first tournament and its pretty much just to get my feet wet. Its 175.00 plus member fees. But Im not really sure how payout works. Can anyone that fishes it chime in? Thanks!!

biteme

What area are you trying to fish?

biteme

Trust me a can relate. Two back surgeries even at 31 have taken a toll. From reading your post's it seems as though you know these bodies of water well enough not to pre fish. I wasnt trying to be a critic but you seem to post in all these threads and have all these stories to tell. They just seem f...

biteme

Hmm Im going to have to agree. I see these posts and have always just stayed out the side lines. But when your giving weights when someone asks questions and they are way off. Then your not helping your just hurting. Why tell all these stories if you cant back them up? Does it make you feel better a...

biteme

Ive owned my 03 520 for about four months now. Its been a dream come true. Boating seems to be a money pit but I wouldnt trade it for anything. Ive noticed that when cruising across the water at about 60mph I catch myself grinin ear to ear :oops: I just look around and take it all in and think man i...

biteme · Re: Shasta Lake 5/11-5/13 Nice post. Sounds and looks like fun!

Nice post. Sounds and looks like fun!

biteme

Can someone PLEASE tell me how to enter a tournament on this lake!!

biteme

Hey jigs that number is wrong. Do you have the right one?

biteme

Just got some good info, thanks guys!
What a good weight for that lake anyway?

biteme

Thanks guys. Im not looking for any secrets so its all good. Just wanted to know where they all are!

biteme

Lol Im starting to think they are smarter. After catching over a hundered spots yesterday I picked up my Jig rod. I was tossing it places I usally wouldnt. I got a couple hits but nothing solid. Im trying to think outside the box but it seems Im stuck in it,lol!

biteme

Im looking for a new prop for my 225 merc. Looking for someone with knowledge of a Ranger 520 and a 225 opti. Any one know any local guys to Sac?

biteme

After fishing this lake pretty heavy this month Ive noticed that the spots are about the only fish in it! Out of about 275 fish being cought in the month there was two sm mouth and the rest spots. No lg mouth. I did catch a few last year but nothing this year so far. Are the largies gone?? Also does...

I like the truck but the feel of a tin can when you shut the door turns me off to it. I like a truck to feel like a truck! We service Folsom, if you intrested let me know. Ill see what I can do. Im sure they will deal. Sales have been LOW this month.
