I have bought used every time & have saved quite a lot of money. I recommend setting a budget limit, then looking for that 1979 fish & ski with 150 hp minimum rating & able to carry 5-7 people. I previously had a dyna-trak (fish/ski), 17' w/150 yamaha & 75# thrust electric bow mount ...

Are you mad at someone ? I have sat out 4 years from tournament fishing, just because I did not feel that I could compete with the locals at each location. I do fish the one day open tournaments because it can be my team's day to win - a lot of luck involve here. There should be a ranking system for...

Only 2 more treatments to go and do I have the fever. I have just begun casting in the back yard and my timing is way off - bird nest after bird nest. But I'm getting really good and getting the nest out. I met another patient (lives in Disco Bay) in therapy & her dad. He told me that he has bee...

I had a similar problem in my '98 Expedition and it turn out to be a foul plug - anti freeze was leaking from the clamp and dripping down onto the plug and foul it out.

get the float switch - easy to splice into existing bilge wiring and direct to hot of battery or inline fuse (do not forget the inline fuse -10 amp or less).

at Jay Liu's old address in Newark, CA - there is a guy there that did vinyl for motorcycles and cars. Maybe, Jay will see this and can provide the name of the company.

Bass Barbarians use to have a 27' patio boat for rent at Lundberg. The last I saw of it was at Lundberg lawn area and not in use. Contact KB - to see if they still have that patio boat and if they are interested in donating it or selling it for conversion to a live release boat.

Can anyone advise ?

Thanks,
Smileee

lawrencelee

due to health reasons, I will not be able to fish for 10 months +. My question is - prep the boat for 1 year storage or try and run the boat once monthly (may not be possible) ???

Thank you,

Followup to US Anglers Choice and Jim Conlow's topic - I have fish a few tournaments in the past but do not fish them now. Why ? Not fun anymore Loss competitive attitude Cost too much with overnite stays Poor weather (rain, sleet, wind) Most important is that there is limited "Marketing" ...

By giving up your water to another angler that is in a favorable position to place or win - May be construe as "Good Sportsmenship" but it can also be construe as sitting on a hole and giving it up to stack the placement or win. I believe that all tournament org. have a rule against "...

Man - after playing 24/7 care giver, I'm ready to return to 8/5. Retirement is OK, but you need something more than just fishing, golfing, traveling and grand kids - tried volunteering but not for me, been in management too long - don't know how to just follow instructions. See ya on the water, :D :D

Wow, I've been home bound playing care giver these past 4 weeks, 24/7 and have not gone out fishing - just to the store for basics and still on tank of gas purchased at $2.59 per gal. I guess that I must be saving money by the above but I sure would like to get out on the water soon (another 4 weeks...

try the following - Holland Marina - directly across from the launch ramp - flip senko into the riprap head to Rhode Is. - identify by 4-5 poles and sunken ship throw - white blades or white/chart move along the outside throw red bomber A I had 20+ within 90 minutes - biggest being 4# lost a few in ...

the original intent - TOP WATER - FROGS I just may enter now - for I could have a lucky day like yesturday in the DELTA lost a hugh one in the matted grass - went in after it with the boat but the fish came unbutton under all that grass as I reached down for it - I was fishing the south delta and it...

I had my reels (2 curado, 1 symetre) in the same time and had quick turn around - about 5 days - one reel (curado)was completely rebuild - all for $20

This topic has been covered extensively in the past and there is a well written article in the archives. Each PRO is different and the best advise to you is to openly communicate with each PRO prior to fishing with him/her (after draw). Asking quesitons such as: Where and what time to meet how many ...

Don Pedro have been charging for daily launch fees for years - even though you only launch once but staying for more than 1 day. The other thing about the private marina operators at Berryessa is that you are also charge a day use fee in addition to the launch fee. I personally launch out of Putah C...

I was given a Craftsman - baseball type cap with 2 built in led lamps (2) - works great, not heavy and long battery life - less than $20

That's correct - the rule was created to target Dee Thomas for his tule dipping - but it's time has passed - the reason I posted this question is: I have a 9' Loomis - steelhead rod that is great for spinner bait tossing - goes a mile and is very sensitive - and I don't fish for steelhead like I did...

lawrencelee

is it time to get rid of the rod length (8') rule ?

I was at Bob's Marine to purchase a new windshield for my Champ - and saw a Champ 198 - w/225
what a sweet looking boat - man, it was longer and wider than my 191 -
very tempting to purchase the 198 but hard to justify the dollars when one is retired and the 191 is running excellent

lawrencelee

Does anyone know how I may contact him ?

Thanks for your support,

I too had sent 2 curados and 1 symetre to Shimano - the turn around time from them was 2 days after receipt - 1 curado was completely rebuilt or refurbished to like new condition - all for $20 each - they could not repair the symetre due to lack of parts that are no longer made but for me - Shimano ...

Haven't lost the complete rig only the split shot

I had one on my F/S - works great -
your kids will be happy
I ordered it from Cabela's -

what you consider fast but REALITY is that you will not do the max speed constantly - I've had my Champ w/200 efi pegged at 71 mph with 2 people (600#+) in the boat with fishing gear on Clear Lake that was mirror flat. Since, that time (2000) I travel at about 40 mph @ 4000 rpm - this saves alot of ...

Hey Rich;

Aren't you at work ? Your boss is way to easy, taking your run to LA, while you go fishing in the Delta and Berryessa last Wed & Thurs.

Lawrence

OK, - with Rich's drop shot theory - what about the weight's shape ? Such as, bell - split shot, stick, etc.. I personally have been too cheap to purchase the slip-on weight and use only the split shots. I've tried the Gremlin rubber core but loose way too many, so back to the split shots. Smileee

I personally do not like the Prescription Solar Bats. I have the inserts type (like fit overs) from Solar Bats and they are heavy and do not fit correctly. I have gone back to direct prescription from my optom. in amber (Ray Ban frame).
My solar bats have been regulated to backup only.

lawrencelee

very expensive - last time I stayed there was $189 per night

I'm looking for an older owners' manual - Pre-Mark V

assistance in replacing the glimmer belt.

I remember every moment of fishing with my son and regret not having any experiences fishing with my daughter. When my son was 8 years old, we went to Del Valle for a day of fishing - upon arriving at the marina all the boats were rented out and the trout was on a hot bite around the launch ramp but...
