Just got an e-mail from Kevin stating that I won the "trap kit" worth $250.00. What a suprise. I don't think i've ever won anything worth a hoot in my life. I think they still have a few more drawings where there's still time to enter including the grand prize worth $900.00. Thanks SABP......

I think that has been the law for quite some time. I've never heard of it being enforced. The reason is that if someone rear ends you the receiver could do alot of damage to the other car. I guess if you were pulled over by the police and your receiver was long enough you could back into the patrol ...

I went to a couple stores today and it was nice. TOO NICE!!!!!
Enjoy the day because its going back to "normal" tomorrow.
Man it would be nice to move out of here.
Today is an eye opener.

I can make a pot of coffee for pennies.

Dead or alive??
Who caught it?
Reliable source?

Whoopbass

Is it just me or is it the fact that this bass has been caught and released three times kinda cheapen everything? It probably spawns in the same spot every year so if it isn't caught this year Jed and his crew can locate it next year and pester it into biting again (Jed probably won't bring Mac alon...

16-60 usually holds their t.o.c. at Los Banos but your scrren name suggests you don't fit their boat requirements. There's a float tube club that I believe holds tourneys out there. There might be a club that hosts tourneys at that lake but I don't know of any. Thats about it for a lake with a 5 mph...

I don't think your hole shot will improve with a higher pitched prop but your top end might improve slightly. You might get a 1-3 mph gain if your lucky (just a guess). I have put my 25 hp Johnson on different size boats and the results are always the same speed. Only one prop style is made for my o...

Dang your a good Salesman. I don't need the thing but I might purchase one just in case.
Salter needs to sponsor you.

How big do you think your PB bass has gotten? Its been a couple years since you caught and released it.
Wouldn't it be nice to test the scale on that monster.

I hear alot of complaints about BPS on other forums. I've always had good experiences with them but I don't order that much. Same with Cabelas. Cabelas tackle selection sucks. I think BPS has the copy cat market cornered. You think customer service is bad now? I hear beginning of next year BPS and C...

My Brother worked at a Ford dealership recently and apparently the new diesels Ford came out with in the last year or two are big turds. They have had major problems with them. I think that is why their coming out with the new 6.0. It could be a big turd as well. The diesels in like the 2000 models ...

I've never fished this time of year at either lake so i'm not sure which lake would be better. Usually Turlock is drawn down in the winter and that makes the fishing tuff. When that lake is down the fish seem to have lock jaw. Modesto's water level will be full. I don't know a whole lot about Modest...

I know its not a popular choice but i've gotten more from Bassmaster then all the other magazines combined. They have alot of how to fish certain baits or where to fish depending on the season articles. I haven't had a Bassin subscription in years but that magazine was enjoyable as well. I currently...

I've converted a couple aluminum rigs with decks. The first one I did lasted about 8-10 years. I wrapped carpet around the deck cut out before I installed it. Only the bottom was exposed. The boat has been sitting for a couple years and I noticed it had dry rot pretty bad. I doubt if the plywood eve...

Let me kick this up a notch. Does Fish Chris have grommies out running around the lake daily and calling him when big fish show up? Is Fish Chris's knowledge and patterns limited to 3 or 4 lakes that are closed for half of the week and still allowed to fish on them for trophies when they are closed...

You can go to one of their meetings listed on the tournament schedule page or you can just show up at the launch site at ther next tourney and pay your dues and entry fees.

Go ahead and bend it back it won't hurt it. It's just a hollow stainless steel shaft with wires running through it.

I'm not familiar with the new wireless Motorguide trolling motors but the old wireless motorguide trolling motors were nothing but trouble. They had so many problems they were discontinued. I would wait a year or two on the Motorguide and see if they have any issues with them before I bought. Minn K...

Whoopbass

see all the confusion here???? THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT GUYS!!!! Just like the DFG laws-they take and write this crap with all kinds of loopholes so they can catch you in it....the state is broke and unfortunatly they have targeted us cuz they figure if we can afford a boat and to take off wo...

How does one go about sight fishing this time of year?

Whoopbass

PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME.........TWO GUYS IN THE BOAT FUN FISHING, NOT WEARING LIFE VESTS, BUT THEY ARE ABOARD IN STORAGE, ALSO ONE THROW CUSHION IN STORAGE........WHAT IS THE RULE ? I beleive their OK as long as the throw cushion is easily accessable. The life jackets can be stored but the throw cushi...

Basswest has alot of swimbait info and pretty pictures. My Bassmaster subscription ended about a year ago but when I was getting it I liked it more. Its geared more towards tournament fisherman. Basswest arrives so late that you can't use any of the tactics you read about. You have to wait the follo...

There's a place East of Waterford. I can't remember if its before or after Modesto resevoir. Its on 132 going towards Pedro on the right. The storage is an old long building with garage doors on it. I haven't drove by it in a long time but the last time I believe the guy had vacancies and it was che...

Great idea.
I found one on Ebay. Appears to be an official parking enforcement type. Its going for $51 but I bet it goes for about $125-$150.
Check it out.

Cmon'. Call Fox40 news, newspapers............Go ahead and do it. Television and newspapers run crap like that 24/7 so do you think they would take your side? Bass Boat Central had a topic about this a couple days ago. Did you happen to see that thread (and get an idea)? I'm getting sick of all the ...

Flasher and crawlers are used for trolling not bank fishing. I can't recall the last time I fished a lake for trout. When I fish the streams in the Sierras I do alot better on 2-4 inch long rapalas. A larger lure is easier for them to see and you get reaction bites from trout just like you would a b...

Welcome to Westernbass There is four pictures taken by Naci (one of the members here) of a Clear Lake Hitch in the photo section. Just go to the photo section at the top of the page and click. When the page comes up you will need to put your cursor arrow on the "page up and down" section o...

Some of the guys on the fishsniffer board have been doing this.
Maybe you can get some ideas from their thread.

I done what Fishatano suggested and checked out my network activity and there was activity when there shouldn't have been. I done some checking and I have home search assistant, search extender and shopping wizard on my computer. I've had them in the past but I thought I got rid of them. I did a int...

Who else is having problems with their service? The first year was great so I signed up for another year of it and its been garbage ever since they hooked me up to the "DSL Pro" for $29.95 a month. About 50% of the time it works like it should and the rest of the time its so slow I can bar...

Whoopbass

I don't see the conversion happening. Your best bet is to stand in the back of the boat and run your trolling motor backwards while fishing. When you want to move to another spot just spin the motor around and use it like its intended. Thats how alot of people that fish out of small boats with just ...

Whoopbass

If your boat isn't that stable you might eventually lose your balance working a foot control trolling motor and fall overboard. :shock: I was in Wal Mart the other day and I think they had some type of extension handle that would mount to your motor. Years back I had a bigfoot and it wasn't very pra...

Whoopbass

Hook it up and find out. :D I hook up my 24 system just like yours. 1 jumper cable to connect the batteries and the red cable from the boat goes to the pos on one battery and the black goes to the neg on the other battery. Buy Trojan batteries and add Thermoil to them if you want batteries to last s...

I've enjoyed it here the last couple days.
It reminded me of the good ol' days of Westernbass.
Lots of posts and very interesing.
I haven't visited the forum very much of late because it has gotten rather boring but the last couples days have been great.

Whoopbass

I got mine Saturday.
This issue is alot better then the last two.
Worth the wait.

The only problem I have with Mega Strike is keeping the bass from swallowing the bait completely. I've never had a problem with deep hooked fish until I started using mega strike. I know without a doubt it wasn't the Mega Strike. I've read but I am not convinced that when a bass goes after a crawdad...

Since there is no set date for the magazines to be mailed out maybe you should quit putting dates on them. The publishing time of the magazine does matter. I wonder how many pre-spawn and bed fishing articles will be in the current issue? The magazine is good but its not really any better then Bassm...

I caught a gopher snake a in my back yard a few months back that was pushing 4' and the girth was probably no more than a half dollar size at the widest point. If it was a boa imagine that sucker in a few years after eating all the wild delta levee cats. Imagine a 12' boa sneaking into your boat. A ...

I had forgotten the magazine existed until I saw this post.

The bad thing about receiving the mag so late is that you can't use the seasonal tips until next year.

I use a 7' medium action BPS Crankin Rod. Its a good rod and and BPS will occasionally have them on sale for $29.99. The rod is sensitive enough for the application. You don't need a $150+ rod to catch reaction fish. If I was going to spend alot of money on a crankin rod I would have it custom made ...

I've never installed either so I wouldn't be much help. You haven't got any replies because this board dies off on Friday through Sunday because everyone is out fishing. Might want to refresh this post tomorrow. What I would do is get a friend to help. Follow the installation instructions and odds a...
