Congrats on your 11+ LM record!!!!

However, a few weeks back there was a story line and photos of a world record 25#er landed from a pond....(????) what became of this event (????)

Thanks for an update on this to WBF... regards, Jim M.

Jim Miller

"WOW", appears to be the chosen word once again with yet another record breaking numbers event for WWBT @ Clear Lake this past Saturday!! A huge congrats to Jordan and McCosker with their big bass @11.80 and an astounding 41.52 for their 7 bass LM limit, just shy of a 6# average! As pointe...

Jim Miller

Hello Gary, Couple questions for consideration. First off, congrats on your personal achievements with WWBT, fantastic to see the participation and entry anglers the way it was decades ago!!! What is the pre-registration # of paid entry teams/boats for the 18th, probably influenced down some, sadly ...

Jim Miller

EXCELLENT coverage of Shasta results in ALL aspects of the happenings WWB, however, for those that were not able to be there could consideration be given to ANY and ALL competitors who weigh their individual LARGEST BASS and that weight be posted on the RESULTS page each day?? Thank you for consider...

Jim Miller

I retired in Happy Valley, OR approximately 11 years ago from Redding, CA. after nearly 40 years living most of my adult life in or near Shasta County, enjoying bass fishing recreationally as well as at tournament levels, most everywhere in California, inclusive of the CA Delta. Approx. three years ...

Jim Miller

I was in receipt of the photo of the bass shown herein that was EMailed to me from Renaud P. who received it early last week, from a close friend. Like Mr. Hemphill and others here, I was in doubt of this being a small mouth bass in this photo. However, a F/G biologist from Washington state authenti...

Jim Miller

WOW!! Posting from Portland, OR, where we see a great number of fantastic SM from the Columbia River watershed and pools, I am certain it must be on some others minds...what was the weight of the fish in photo?? Thanks for reply, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Looks like a sure winning combination of the best of all worlds for fishing blades. When will they be available?Jim M.

Jim Miller

Thanks FT for the detailed reply on CL results from Saturday. Can't wait to fish and revisit this lake, end of the month, after a seven year absent, particularly bringing a friend who has never been on the lake. Jim M.

Jim Miller

Their has to be some tourny angler willing to share the numbers and facts from Clear Lake yesterday, in the Big Bass Brawi?? No posts on their site, so...how did it go yesterday???????????? Thanks, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Disappointing that there was not one post from any tourny angler either last night or this morning??? Someone has got to be out there that would like to share the numbers and facts of this event (????) Thanks, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Whoops, Mike, this was not you goin' toTrinity, but Mr. Eagle. Lucky dog!! Jim M.

Jim Miller

Hi Mike, Was excited you are headin' up to our favorite lake in the world!! After eight years I am also heading there for three days during our NW School Spring Break. A bassin buddy and I are spending three days at Clear Lake and then two days at Trinity, and he has never been to either lake, as he...

Jim Miller

No question about it, if you can be at the very back of incoming fresh (like the very week or day it flows in the heaviest from torrential rain) you will put some of the heaviest limits in your boat, that you have every seen. This is true on Shasta as well as Oroville, I know, because I have been fo...

Jim Miller

The 8.88 will certainly be a Shasta Lake record this coming Spring and most likely a Calif. state record, swimming with many others, I am sure, as it was released to swim again. Do Mr.Wood or Ayers have a photo for all to envy that could be posted on this WB site? Thanks, and congrats on yet one mor...

Jim Miller

Hello Papamunster (??) When Charlie Moss and I and other SCBA members at the time put the Fall Classic together, now decades ago, little did we know that this great event would still be going strong, and as mentioned for a great cause. After the last time I fished the Fall Classic, three years ago, ...

Jim Miller

Appreciate the quick post on top ten. A 6# spot on Shasta is always a treat! Thanks again, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Storing an ARig depends on size (which is length, usually), as I build all sizes, however here's a method that works for me. Take a flat piece of heavier guage plastic. Cut it to length to match length needed, roll in to approximately 2 inch diameter (again dependent on style of ARig). Use duct tape...

Jim Miller

Hello Tyler, You are really in luck for some quality and quantity input on Almanor as SCBA, out of Redding had their last tourny there. Pull their web site up under "clubs" here at WB. It's a detailed interesting read with limits of bass to 15lb plus bags. Simply adjust to more post spawn ...

Jim Miller

Thanks for more detail on the 9#er. I'm certain that many enjoyed your comments on large spots being caught recently, as well. I lived in Redding area for over 40 years, before retiring in Portland area, and spent many hours on Shasta seeking large spots exclusively, to show for it, I was able to pu...

Jim Miller

Since the only news I have heard of was on Face Book last week, I called Phil's and they had little to say, go figure (?), other than it was caught by a local. Any more news, photos, etc. Can not believe we have NOT heard more info by now (??) Jim M.

Jim Miller

Super Delta Hog on the CB! Do you find that the color of the CB Blade makes a difference, like color in a SB Blade? Hear different versions of this for Chatter baits, what's yours?

Jim Miller

Sure, a huge congrats to Aaron...more so to his mom, CAROL..way to go guys!!

Jim Miller

Hi Mike,
Sorry I did not get back to you sooner...shoot me a PM, I am certain I can give you part of the 40 years I have fished on Trinity
Lake! Jim Miller

Jim Miller

Would appreciate comments on this rig, particularly if it's new to you! I live in the Portland area and the closest dealership is two hours away and they do not have any Z7's in stock! Thanks, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Mike,
You simply can never sell your bass boat...it's caught too many big SM at Trinity Lake!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and Mrs. R!!!! Regards, Jim M.

Jim Miller

For some real up to date information on Almanor pull up Shasta Cascade Bass Anglers on this website under bass clubs, and there you will find their May event on Almanor. Baits may change, but areas are still "go to"! How I miss SCBA and Lake Almanor.....it's an awsome smallie fishery! Not ...

Jim Miller

Pat,
For some one who remembers that first big bass you caught at Clear Lake with SCBA over 10lbs (now over 100 years ago, before you realized what a "stick" you really were, har, har) it is great to see you back on the water!!! Take care my friend!! Regards, Jim M.

Jim Miller

Sorry, I know of no link for photo of the Havasu hybrid..as I mentioned the photo is in the WON Bass latest newsletter.

Jim Miller

Just finished reading the latest WON Bass newsletter and on page 14 is shown the first quality "hybrid" I have seen in quite some time as JJGibbs is shown in his photo of a 5.72 large/mouth "hog"!! After thirty five years of fishing Shasta, in the past ten years or so I have caug...

Jim Miller

Ever wondered what the local clubs do on the Columbia...simply pull up columbiariverbassmasters on the club site on Westernbass for some great photos and stories. Got to love those 4# smallies this time of year (or anytime!!) and 18# limits in our May event!! Regards to all my ole Calif. bassers!! J...

Jim Miller

Take a Spring Break to the fantastic Columbia River and catch those record breakin smallies that are plentiful on our river in the Spring!! Yes, it only took a 20.19 bag of limit SM for Shon Childers and Todd Martinez to win this event last year.. culling four pound smallies..what a concept..WOW!!! ...

Greg, Just had to respond to the quote I read iin Bass Fan that "you may have let some friends down with 3rd place" Horsepucky, Mr. G!!! The astounding "math" of your Clear Lake event might be written that even with another 10+ on day four to add to your 108, I say again, 108 pou...

Jim Miller

Greg, Wishing you all the best for the remaining days at Clear Lake. I am sure Bobbi and Greg Jr. are really "stoked". Memories of our tiime on Clear Lake are all the more special to me now!! God bless and take care. Rip Lips...it's your time to "soar"!!!! Best regards, Jim Miller.

Jim Miller

For those who have not received your WON Bass newspaper telling us that the two bass each day in the WON Bass Pro Am on Shasta caught by Bret Gouvea were spots not blacks as one might have thougt...I say WOW!! Bret's impressive 31.84 had a 7+ spot each day and for those of us who know Shasta as I do...
