Re: Any belly boat/kick boaters out there

I'm in a kickboat and fish the delta often. Mostly around Disco or Holland but have hit Middle River and Paradise as well. Used to fish around Beacon when I had a smaller tube.

Hit me up if you have any questions. I'll be in Disco tomorrow.

Re: What do you do?

What speed reel are you using? Could be a factor. I've been using a 5.8:1 and noticed that it's still too fast regardless of how slow I reel.

Delta or Berryessa - Any Backseats open this weekend?

Tired of fishing from my tube and looking to get out. Anyone heading up have an open backseat for Saturday or Sunday (7/16 or 7/17)? I will contribute gas money and help wipe down the boat after. Can launch at any time.

Tight lines!
