Not good......

My local Napa store has ordered many different boat/trailer parts at excellent prices.

Jboutfishn

Very nice!

I am assuming a strict inspection protocol but was wondering if is there a quarantine period?

Praying for a speed recovery.

We need more Issac Parkers on the bench. Maybe these slimes will think twice before their actions.

Jboutfishn

Very cool. Another youngster hooked for life.

Jboutfishn

Always a good Idea. Evens out any wear patterns.

Jboutfishn

Very nice.

Happy to hear you made it back in the boat. I fish solo a lot and this time of year I always wear an inflatable PFD. Thing is, how can you be sure they will inflate if it is needed? Thought has crossed my mind. In warmer weather I wear an inflatable. For the colder times, I bought a 3X PFD and wear...

Diverting more of the Sac is going to help the fish how?

Jboutfishn

Good news you made it back in the boat. Bad news you lost a nice rig. I am 76 and ALWAYS wear my jacket, this time of the year on Shasta my concern is the cold water, hypothermia is ugly. A guy was found floating in the upper Sacramento arm earlier this week. He was wearing a jacket. I never gave it...

I am trying to find some detailed information on how to rig the Castaic Catch 22 6 inch trout. Some information found on line talks about a "patented magnetic hook holder" but can find no such item.

Sure would appreciate any information and help!

Very Nice.

With the purse strings largely controlled by San Fransisco and Los Angeles I don't see things improving. What percentage of Southern California Residents have knowledge or even care about the health of the Delta?

Jboutfishn

Sounds like last Wednesday on Shasta.

5" twin tail grub, Yamamoto 222 color. Had some success with 190.

Disclosure: I tow with a 15 year old Duramax 4WD short bed with the Allison transmission. Consider looking at the the Ram HD. My Son pulls a huge ski boat with a 2017 Ram HD 4WD with the big Hemi engine and it is a beast. I have only driven it once and I was most impressed with how solid it feels. S...

It's not just the Delta. Several of the ramps on Shasta are not safe for anything. Left a folding chair in the back of my truck, gone on my return after 5 hours. Last year some jerk took a key to my truck mirrors. Then there are the jokers who manage to block the ramp for over an hour while doing wh...

I am running an HDS5 in dash and a 5X up front with one LSS unit. As I understand it when running Structure Scan up front it is networked to the dash graph which is running on the structure scan transducer. When running the sonar up front it uses the puck mounted on the trolling motor. I have not tr...

Living under the Brown Regime this really hits home.

Looking for a casting rod mainly for Spinner Baits up to 3/4 ounce. Need it to be 7' +/- and in the $125 range. I have looked at Dobyns, Okuma, St. Croix, and everything else on line. What say the local brain trust.

How about a law that mandates all vehicle and fuel taxes must be used for road construction and maintenance?

Jboutfishn

We have two possible explanations. Either the folks are plain jerks or they just don't know any better. I was on Shasta last week and I had two folks in a kayak paddle right between my boat and the shore line I was fishing. They did not acknowledge my presences and appeared to be totally unaware of ...

"As the lake gets more and more new area's closed off to fishing at what has been told to me as a managements discretion".

And we close off areas why?

Jboutfishn

Thanks for the input, what rods are you using with the Chronarch?

Jboutfishn

Anyone using the Shimano Chronarch MGL? Worth the $$$?

I replaced a "Guest" with a Minn Kota Precision. Excellent unit.

Jboutfishn

Great read, thanks for sharing.

I am 75 and have had dozens of "spots" frozen off and two cut out of my lower lip. The Vet said the problem was caused over 50 years ago. While is too late for me I still wear long sleeve shirts and put on SPF one million sun screen. Cover up guys!

Jboutfishn

Very nice.

Jboutfishn

A bit over the top.

Jboutfishn

Well done.

Jboutfishn

And the location would be?

Redding, California 96003 (actually in the town of Mountain Gate)

I don't recall the spot but the largmouth is on the back wall.

Was watching the news and the weather report showed Piru under some heavy rainfall. Any one know it all the weather is helping the lake level?

Jboutfishn

My question centers around the main spillway. It appears that the original construction was not up to code, or was constructed "on the cheap". Someone skimp on the cement in the mix? Was the water used in the mix "drinking water quality"? Where did the aggregate come from? Just a...

Inlets are a muddy mess, main body is off color. Looking at heavy rain for the next 4 days.

Looking for a top housing for a 24 Volt digital control Motor Guide motor. The model mounts with 5 screws.

Any help appreciated.

Baily Cove has camping and launch ramp. First off ramp north of Bridge Bay.

Jboutfishn

Nice. This would be where?

Jboutfishn

Check out Casitas in Ventura County. I believe they have rentals.

Jboutfishn

And if you kicked their butt you would go to jail.

I blame the liberal politicians.

Those who fish Shasta Lake know the water is very hard, ie. lots of water spots all over everything. I don't normally talk about any product, but I was so happy with a water spot remover I decided to share. DUCKY WATER SPOT remover is a great product and works as advertised. It is not perfect as I h...
