Homeowners along the Clear Lake shoreline are always trying to pull some type of trick to keep anglers from fishing near their docks, but it backfired on several homeowners roughly a few years back. They were leaving unattended fishing poles out on their docks with line in the water during a tournam...

Going any speed above your ability to stop and avoid striking any obstacle in front of you during inclement weather is not only operating without any common sense, it is illegal, and plain STUPID!

When fishing becomes a job, I just call in sick.

I always thought the same thing but here at lake Pleasant the main marina can kick you out and it is legal. Some kind of a deal between the county and Corps and the marina but they can get you for fishing inside the bouys and it is definitely in the low water area. Might want to ask a G&F offic...

Andrew Jackson wrote:The same reason Mark did. If it was a small weight probably would not have weighed it. What motives are yours to beat this dead horse, detective booger?

No motives Mr. Jackson, but you are quick to speculate what he did and what he probably would not have done.

Why would an angler weigh in 5 fish knowing there was a sixth in the well and then DQ himself? What would be the point weighing in? Such actions give reason to suspicion and question motive.

Currently 2.51' above Zero Rumsey. 7.56' is a full lake, so the level is down 5.05'. Weeds are dying off and sinking in the north end. Far more clear water than pea soup conditions in most areas. Fall transition in progress.

I wore an inflatable PFD for two years. Although it still had a green indicator, I decided to test it out, and rearm it. Inflated OK, but it soon started to deflate due to a pinhole leak on the vest. I've gone back to a conventional PFD.

If they're performing an illegal act, report them, but if they're fishing perfectly legal, they are within their rights, just as you are. No one has rights that supersede others.

So when does a county have to pay for the lack of foresight for a city? Lucerne has water problems because they wouldn't fork over money to up grade their water system on an ongoing basis. Show me a city without some problems. Sonoma that's wealthy has a **** hospital, Napa has its problems during ...

....The problem with Lake County is they have people in local government with no clue of what they're doing! Which is ironic, because Lake County I think is one of two counties in the state of CA that operates in the black financially. Weird for people who have no clue of what they are doing. Lake ...

Another deal the Lake County Board of Supervisors screwed up on! When Kenwood Investments was interested in purchasing the property, their request to develop it into a casino was shot down by the BOS, because it was not Indian land. KI pulled out of the deal. Later, as property values plummeted, and...

Look at the regulation again. It only applies to certain waters. Doesn't apply to lakes and reservoirs, the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, and Colorado River.

County Park is great during the week when there are no crowds. Fifth Street ramp in Lakeport is nice and has great parking, plus restaurants.

When I got my boat new it came with everstart batteries. Those lasted about one year then they went bad. Walmart took them back and gave me 50% off for two new ones. Those new batteries lasted about six months then a cell went bad in one of them. Walmart gave me a new battery for free. At that poin...

Well, the bottom line is this new protocol takes effect January 1, 2010. In addition to all the bad publicity Lake County has received these past few years, along with the severe algae problem over the summer that devastated the seasonal tourism trade , Konocti Harbor closing, shops closing, and the...

bassbooger, your right about that case of enforcement and enforcement in general. If your enforcement is writing a bunch of tickets for non compliance something isn't working, and in the case of last years stats it came up to about 1.6 tickets per day on the water (avg. 4 days a month and approx. 8...

It was a good measure when Lake County implemented this ordinance, but it was hastily put together, and as with any new program, bugs need to be worked out. It doesn't take 1.5 years to realize the honor system doesn't work... it takes common sense. :wink: SPC (Statistical Process Control) is an eff...

This ordinance will only be effective, if it is enforced consistently. The current screening process may be done properly at some locations, but the majority screeners are not even supervised regularly to confirm proper protocol is followed. A good example is one boater was ordered off the lake by t...

Of the Lake County bodies of water, Clear Lake is not owned by Lake County, but by the State of California, and administered under the Public Trust Doctrine. In simple terms, the residents of California have the right to use navigable waters of Clear Lake 24/7. Clear Lake was the main reason this or...

I'd suggest getting a hold of Bob at Limit Out to get the skinny... when we were up there for the ABA a couple of weeks ago, he was telling us about some changes coming very soon and that they are fighting hard against a reinspection policy being proposed.

You can launcj at Holiday harbor, just keep the big motor up until you get out of the harbor. 3rd and 5th street in Lakeport are okay. Be careful using the ramp at Holiday Harbor. Besides being steep, it drops off to one side the further back you go. Just keep the trailer centered on the ramp backi...
