Running alongside a train in the Delta

Post by Bassinlee »

Kinda weird. But fun. Was kind of like the time at Lake Sonoma when we were fishing the Dry Creek side and an airplane landed on the water not 200 feet from where we were casting to the bank. Didn't even cause a wake.


Most of you who fish the Delta know where this is. And he's promised to never shoot vertical video again :lol:

I think from the recent tragic accident that happened a few weeks ago out there, I would of had my fishing buddy sitting next to me wear his PFD. It didn't look like he was wearing one.

I went to the weigh in for the yamamoto tourney to check things out. I watched a bunch of guys coming in form Franks Tract. I noticed a lot of guys were not wearing their PFDs. Isn't that grounds for elimination while the big motor is running in most tournaments? I know it's a 5mph zone but I thought that's the general rule.

I don't think I know what part of the delta that is. I like it when the big rigs are driving down the levee roads and dust is blowing off them. It looks pretty cool when running down the channel with em.

True. If you look at any Tourney rules, it states that you have to be wearing a vest when ever the "big motor" is running......kind of funny cus if you watch how many are still wearing one after they have dropped their non-boater or partner to go get the truck. As for the guy in the video not wearing one, how big of a wake up call do ya need?
