I had a chance to fish with Mark, and I will say this. He really loves fishing. He didn't have a tackle store in his boat. He didn't have every state of the art bait, rod, reel either. He came to fish, and was very professional. And a great stick too. I don't know why it's so bad to wait a day or tw...

Still kicking it around....

Don't kick it around much longer Riverguy, let's get it on! Only one off limits spot and fish your favorite water.. I'm excited!

snapitoff2002

Small head? it's bigger than Kyle's! lol.. it may be a small head compared to the body, but I'm curious if that fish has some more growing to do.

snapitoff2002

No kidding.. thanks Roger... well I was wondering if there is camping available over on the east, at Herman & Helen's? Called there and no answer. Wanted to take the motorhome, but it's not out of the shop

snapitoff2002

Now you have to do it all over on a new Z520!!!

snapitoff2002

I have mostly Powell's, and the 735 to me feels like a broom, with the sensitivity of a broom.. so maybe the Dobyns would be nicer

snapitoff2002

Heading down there to prefish, and really trying to pinch pennies... We were going to set up a tent at Russo's, but they say the camp area is all soggy

anyone have an idea of how to get by on low $$$ or charm? lol

snapitoff2002

I'm pulling for Klein... One for the original Elite's!!!!

Congrats!!

Congrats! I think by the time that I settle down, I'm going to have to use the injected type.. lol

snapitoff2002

Sorry to hear that.. welcome to the club... only thing is, I started tearing my carpet out too.. and don't have the extra $$$ to even buy carpet now! lol

snapitoff2002

Take it in Mike! Post the results!!!!

snapitoff2002

I'm sorry.. I did it Joe.. I couldn't find my flashlight anywhere!

snapitoff2002

Mojo Flippin' stick is still good for 6" baits... and a 765 Powell will fling those hollow bellies.

snapitoff2002

Yes... He is keeping a BIG secret.. it's called corporate sponsors... Very big things about to happen to WCB... secrets??? pshhh

It was live streamed with how the competitors caught their fish.. Hardly a secret there.

snapitoff2002

CXX is about as reliable as they come, although don't quote me, but I believe maxima has a smaller diameter.. at least for floro's.

snapitoff2002

I know beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but out of clear water, I don't think there is a better looking bass than the Alabama spot. We used to see a lot of 6- to 8-pounders at Lake Perris back in the day. Today, everything is up North. This is one fine catch. gk How can you tell its an Alabam...

snapitoff2002

Wow... I am so excited! I haven't even touched any fishing gear since November because I am BROKE! lol.. but I am super excited to hear all the talk of WCB at Clear Lake.. It's going to be a huge turnout.. I only wish I had the $$$ to fish as a boater, because I have the time to prefish, cause' that...

snapitoff2002

I throw them anywhere except rip rap... that will make you sorry... Broken bills are easy to fix though. I like to work it every way you can. swim it, then slap it a few times.. make the tail flip straight up, give it a pop, then start swimming.. WHAMMO! But yes, I throw the slammer into the stuff t...

Rc's is great, but no parking... if you head South to Market street exit, and make a left at the light... you will see Dills Deli... He is a bbq master. Their Tri tip is insane.. it's also in the same area as the hotel's you will be staying at. There is a huge parking lot, no problem parking the tru...

snapitoff2002

I fish because I like to compete...

And I also fish cause I like to be broke all the time.

snapitoff2002

If you live near spotted bass, the cross-tail shad is a good one..

snapitoff2002

Maybe for one fish.. I've ran into 2 people that have said the 5-7lb range are chewin!

Can't wait to get out there! This is a great one day tourney.

snapitoff2002

I've been using a 734 powell... Only because when I use a bigger spoon, it's good.. smaller spoon.. still good.

I somehow have a short little BPS Extreme pistol grip rod that is probably barely 6' that I have used before... you can hold it in one hand all day and rip rip rip away!

snapitoff2002

I hate my old Pinpoint's, but they read going over 50!

snapitoff2002

It was about a month ago when I saw one of those beasties up the South Moke just up from Sycamore. Thing is, we all complain about them being there, problem is, they shouldn't be there, they're "SEA LIONS" not "RIVER LIONS". It's a shame all the coastal fisheries suck and the ma...

snapitoff2002

I love the Danner Radical series.. you can even wear them out to dinner.. they don't look too bad. On cold cold days though, I think I'll opt for some better wool socks, cause your toes can get pretty frosty.

snapitoff2002

True Dan, but you know that crappy time when you knock the box over and @!#$^!#^!@@*&

snapitoff2002

So.. it's winter time.. I know some guys like seal skins, and wool, and I've even heard of battery powered ones.. but what is the BEST cold weather sock out there???

snapitoff2002

Speaking of... I have 94 merc 200 also.. and the trim is Sloooooooow.... I wonder if a new trim motor would be the deal, or if they were just that slow!

snapitoff2002

Online link??? Just Flw site???

snapitoff2002

I was looking for a rod lately to throw 3/8-1/2 oz, and was looking at the 784... I was told by the 'man' that the 784 was good, but a better choiced would be the 703... The man is ML.

They are probably making up for when they didn't send us any!! J/k

It was just to keep you from selling your boat!

snapitoff2002

Well I'm excited to fish the FLW as a co-angler, but also excited because there are tournaments that fill the gap, such as West Coast Bass, Won and AC... I'm going to fish the West Coast circuit, and I think it's going to be a great one! I know the fields have been tough, but from everyone who fishe...

snapitoff2002

Josh, I don't know about the Dobyns, but I have the Powell 765, and I think it makes a good 'open water' flippin stick... But for punchin' or heavy heavy cover flippin, I would not use it... I would use something heavier. Even though the 805 is still a 5 power, I heard it is much better. I have a mo...

snapitoff2002

I think you can help me as well.. I'm having a little problem with my gps locating my position right now... '

Let me know if that sounds like a common problem.. I just had the guys up at Vexilar go through 3 of mine...

snapitoff2002

Yes.. take a look at Don's boat.. I'm sure there is a small fortune in tackle with it as well.

snapitoff2002

You have to live out of State, know the secret handshake, and the last day victory is yours..

snapitoff2002

I just had all 3 of mine re-done... but for some reason, my gps is not working properly.. it's in the GPS for sure, or the puck, but I'm thinking of getting rid of them soon for a newer graph in the back..

What's wrong with yours? Liquid crystal display going out?

snapitoff2002

This Mark Smith has really whacked them from the back! Interested to see how he does again tomorrow!

snapitoff2002

Haha.. I have the same spool Mac.. I have NEVER used it.. don't remember what I bought it for!

snapitoff2002

lol.. That's how I'm going to launch my boat when I get too old to get around.. Somebody will move it for me!

snapitoff2002

My folks used to have about a mile and an half of creek frontage on their old ranch... We used to do some bad things to those poor salmon- Too young to understand... well at least until we got a ticket for it! Nothing like snorkeling around with a hawaiian sling and a 40-50lb giant bumps into your m...

Very cool Corey....

By the way, I wonder if they still make the old decals?

I remember most of them had a problem ... lol.. I dont' know what it would take to get an out of state boat over here... registering it...

That's probably why the boat is so cheap!

Damn nice! Too bad it's on the other coast!

snapitoff2002

Man.. that blade looks awesome.. but it's worth about 8 bucks to me.. not twice that. Buckeye lures!

snapitoff2002

This here is also a good swimjig design, however I have not used them. I'll probably be trying these out soon. http://www.blackangeljigs.com/SwimJigs.html I've seen these before, and they look as close as it gets for profile, except the hook looks a little iffy... Hope I'm not knocking them, just w...

snapitoff2002

I know you can swim virtually any jig, but- I was just wondering if there were any that worked better for design reasons... Looking to have something I can work through the trees, or stay clean through the grass, and stay up when retrieving.
