i never tried to get it out of mine, i would consider anything food grade and plastic safe a good option. My go to would be baking soda and a green pad.

Great Post, i saw this on Facebook and didnt think about sharing it here. it sounds like the pipe has shifted off and now is an obstruction. So many of us are conditioned to be able to go in and out of there on plane its no bueno.

Makes total sense KB, centralized DC to better serve the customers.

Bump - Good Luck to all anglers fishing this event. I know it's an important one so be prepared and keep mentally sharp!

If your swimbait rod works for frogs, it will work for ploppers. Agreed i run my ploppers on my open water frog rod. I like the Phoenix feather 7'3" XH or the Abu Garcia Veritas Rod MODEL # VTSC73-7 http://www.abugarcia.com/abugarcia-rods-casting-rods/abu-garcia-veritas-casting/1447313.html#st...

Very cool, thanks for sharing the Video Brass Monkey - thats funky monkey

Ive had a few very fruitful days on the river with a jerkbait in hand - As Gary said the mouths of marinas, dead end sloughs etc... watching birds work is also a key factor i have been in em hot both strippers and largies running boils. The most effective was hanging it up in the grass of teh outsid...

Fortunately we still have several organizations still hanging in there to give us a LOT of choices. WE as the competitive angler need to support them with your time, hard cash :), and good respect and spirits. Tell them when they are doing a good job and provide constructive ideas to improve.

Thanks ACP BBT is always looking for feedback from the Anglers and the BBT has a steering committee that meets annually to review suggestions and make any changes that may be necessary.

Back in the day the there were a lot of prize boats given away for a reasonable entry fee for the Draw & Pro-Am tournaments but now your paying over $800+ to fish as a Pro with the possability of winning $20,000 if enough guys enter & you're able to cash in on all the contingencies. Won Bas...

When does you dad get his boat back?

He actually got it back last week. Looks brand new!

Great to hear, i look forward to seeing you and your pops at the BBT TOC.

Fish the Berkeley General - I dont have this issue

Also check out Frenzy Baits Wacky Saddle or just step down a size in your O-ring - I get mine at ACE two different sizes

C&C Marina, Bucks Outboards, Gone Fishing, any reputable outboard mechanic will be able to look it over. Your friend may want to ask for the latest compression test, service history, and hour break down before even taking it to a mechanic. Ask the previous owner where it was serviced etc...

or transporting yourself to and from fishing. Careful out there giving legal advice - this portion of the law right here needs a lot more of a qualification - if you are walking to your fishing spot that is transporting to and from not in your vehicle - When in doubt ask an attorney or even a frien...

Chad if this is the case the Spotted Bass will be put on the kill list as they are non native fish killing native endangered species

Ohnoillegalfish wrote:Eh might as well just go with a medium because I only fish in lakes or rivers with no rocks and only throw nightcrawlers and senkos

Whatever floats your worms -

The most versatile rod for bass fishing is a medium heavy rod if you were going to just get one of the two you mentioned i would go with the 704. This power rod may not be "the best" for every technique but it'll allow you ample versatility.

3000 - 3300 depending on size / style is what i am seeing but they wont be available until December.

Check out the Revo S Spinning Reel this should balance well with your new rod and with the Carbon Matrix frame.

this sucks rob - damn tweekers suck - sorry this happened and thank you for the heads up

Dont forget the Lowrance Ghost will be on the market very soon. I saw Ish Monroe's this weekend, up close and personal and if i was getting a new TM right now - id go Ghost so quiet i mean on deployment on moving on everything and its fully integrated into Lowrance. Very cool

Hope to see some Westernbass guys down at the Bassfest this weekend

Wow - Lake Comanche kickin out a Big Ol Pig, caught on a jig with Berkeley Big Game line. That Big Game was the first i ever spooled onto a bait caster and still is a premier Monofilament line. https://www.wired2fish.com/news/angler-catches-14-pound-bass/?fbclid=IwAR2yx14YSk3aWW7Bpo8r0715MhqHzXEQ7wE...

Re: Delta 9-10-19 report Awesome report, I am sure your son was stoked!

Awesome report, I am sure your son was stoked!

RIP - I miss hearing his HAR HAR and booming voice both on-line and out on the river.

I like that flip to the grass clump while your adjusting your graph, i recognize that hook set - damn grass my bait is clogged up - oh shoots that a fish :D Slowing down on the outside got your better fish of the footage. thanks for the share - I sub'd and encourage others who watch to like and sub ...

Standard Nut - has always been good for me and occasionally check for tightness between trips - especially after a bumpy day.

I would call Jimmy at Clear Lake Bait and Tackle to see what time he will be open this weekend. I know the shop typically opens at 6am but sometimes they will adjust if there is a tournament. Also too it's THE place to stop adn shop when heading out to Clear Lake. Phone: (707) 994-4399

Great Looking Schedule BBT!

i think you can find them right next to the color C lector - honestly i didnt know this existed until now. Have you tried ebay?

Great Question Monte - for me it's that i truly believe with any given cast that i can hook a giant! The Delta has provided me with the best days of fishing and the worse - sometimes back to back. There is a mystery to the Delta, it's never the same to me. I love the sounds, and sights watching it f...

Mark - I'm no Trump supporter - but to be fair and balanced the California Legislators have all but turned their backs on the environmental impacts of water diversion long before the current president took office. For me this is a bipartisan issue as the money is the influence not a party line.

Great Video showing the difference in ROF between jig trailers. Another thing that one needs to consider is water displacement and this video touches on that as well. Something to think about before you tie on your next Canopy Grenades jig

Right now the crawdads and bluegill are still king - watermelon red flake, big texan, black and red, pumpkin candy, junebug. Once we start to get the cooler weather you'll see more shad showing up. For me a Berkley Champ Swimmer in Sexy Shad or Sight Flash - dippy dye the tail Chartreuse if you want...

Great job to Chris and Ryan on their win, you guys are always great competitors and sportsmen.

Great job and awesome video!

Great info here! What knot are you guys tying to the bait itself with the fluorocarbon? I've been having a lot of knots break using a Palomar and am now tying the double improved clinch knot... :? My go to is still the Palomar knot and a close second is the double San Diego Jam knot - i really like...

While I don't have Double G's resume by any means my setup is similar. Berkely X9 Braid in 12lb, with Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon leader in 8 or 10 lb depending on where i am fishing. At Clear Lake and Delta its typically the 10lb. I use a blood knot connection and haven't had issues with it. Tightlin...

Mark and I will be crashing the party to hang with the Northern guys for the day. Should be a great bite!

I agree if i was going up with my family for a few days I would try to get into Skylark as my first choice and Konokti as my second.

Wow - I'm so sorry to hear this happened to you and pops. I've had a near miss and stuffed it into the tulles luckily not a levee wall. I'm glad that you and pops are doing well and I'm sure the Insurance company will step in and get your basscat back up to good.

FMTC Voodoo, D&M - Pirahna, and Blade Runner Wobble Heads - all three companies make an excellent vibrating jig for the delta. Word of advice, wire tie the rubber collar so that they last more than a season.

Thanks for the "tip" I think it's great especially for those that are looking to take their friends and families out who may not be the next KVD and just want a fun day of fishing. These shakers and lots of action are what hooks kids check out the new Berkley Fishing Power Bait in Straight...

Monte too many variables I’ve seen it sometimes where it feels like it stays slack forever and some days where it feels like she just turned around.
