Re: Frustrations with Castaic and Southern California Lakes
Crazy about last year's sticker...I take last years stickers off my boat when I put on new stickers. I find it very rule heavy down here as well, but try to visit castaic on weekdays and it seems ok and staff are maybe not stressed out like on the weekends. it is a small place and gets popular.

Re: 519 or 520? And why?
My vote Caracal. I have one and love it. I have ridden in plenty of 20'ers and say the Caracal rides as good or better. Plus it is easier to move around in tight spaces. best of both worlds. Lots of guys running them on the Delta, I'm in So Cal so can't give a ride, but I bet you could get a test ri...

Hot Sauce. After wiping down boat, just wipe screens with the damp micro-fiber cloth.
or 50/50 vinegar-water is what I used prior to having a boat that was worth wiping down.

Re: Delta Water Hyacinth control evaluation
I believe the active spraying I witnessed on Saturday morning shut the bite down. (fished down south) Where I could find areas that were obviously not recently sprayed we would get bit. If signs of spraying were present in the immediate area, than there seemed to be no fish present.

Re: Ranger Boat ToolKit?
I'd imagine that if you are confident enough to take care of on the water break-downs you would have your own idea of what tools you will need.
any basic selection of wrenches, screwdrivers pliers should suffice. but most importantly a cell phone.

Re: Safely Navigating the Delta?
No worries, other traffic is of more concern than depth. do not cut corners and stay in your "lane" around corners and you will be ok.
Tide can swing four feet, so what was "deep" may not be so upon your return...
Have fun, I have not seen any bass boats stuck in the mud.
