Anthony,

Excellentt job organizing the boaters.

I had a great time being a boat captain.

Looking forward to next year.

Here's one of the bass we caught during the day.

Norv

I will donate a Save Phace SUM mask as a raffle prize for the boat captains.

Norv

I just signed up as a boat captain. Looking forward to the event.

Norv

Kely,

I'm sure the results will be on the Triton website soon.

The winning two day weight was 40+ pounds. Big fish was around 7.8 pounds.

Norv

No fish worthy of pictures, but we learned a lot from Bob.

Norv

Phil,

Congratulations, it sounds like your tournament was a success!!!

Unfortunately I couldn't make it because I had already committed to the Triton Owner's Tournament. Had a great time, but no fishing, raffle or new boat. Sounds just like when you and I fished it together a few years ago!!!

Norv

My partner and I had a great time at the Triton Owner's Tournament held last weekend at Clear Lake. Although we didn't win any fishing or raffle prizes or the new boat we still had a great time renewing friendships with fellow Triton owners that we had met in previous years and meeting other Triton ...

Norv

Congratulations to the Sac State Fishing Team!!!

Norv

We had a great trip with Bob Mysky at Clear Lake.

Norv

We're at Clear Lake for the Triton Owner's tournament and had no idea on what the fish were doing. So we stopped at Tackle it and Ed provided us with a lot of great information.

Norv

Jeff C,

The facilities at Konocti Vista are top notch. The marina and docks are very nice and it's very relaxing to have everything right there. You will have a great time at the tournament.

Norv

Check with the California Community Credit Union in Sacramento. They will work with you and will also try to match any rate that you can find out there.

Norv

Matt,

Glad to hear that your dad is getting better.

Tell him to get well so that he can take me fishing again on Clear Lake.

Norv

I have a Triton 190FS and it works great for both general boating and fishing. I chose this boat because it had the low profile of a bass boat plus the quick planing and seating attributes of a ski boat. I removed the rear center seat and replaced it with a hinged aluminum plate and then covered the...

I was told by a law enforcement officer that regardless of the 5 MPH limit if you have "white" water capping on your wake that you are going too fast.

Norv

Thanks for the clarification that the DFG will not directly limit the number of permits that a tournament organization can have. However, if they limit the number of permits or the number of events that can occur on a specific day and lake or waterway they are indirectly placing limits.

Norv

If the DFG is only concerned about the resource why are they involved in discussions regarding the number of tournament organizations??? If the impact of tournament fishing on the general public isn't in the DFG's area of responsibility then what agency does have such responsibility. Perhaps the DFG...

Norv

Rougebass, I meant that the DFG should hold public meetings where notices are published in a similar manner to the Brown Act so that they could get input from as many interested parties as possible. It would be particularly interesting to hear the input of the general population on the impact of tou...

Norv

What is the real issue here??? Is it the number of tournament organizations? Is it that the higher number of tournaments is diluting the number of participants and negatively impacting the payouts? Is the higher number of tournaments making it difficult for DFG to control the impact of tournaments b...

Norv

Terry,

Thanks, I sent my questions to Kyle.

Norv

Kent,

For those who have questions, but cannot attend the meeting is there a way to get questions presented to the DFG staff for response at the meeting???

Norv

Kyle, Please present the following questions to the DFG's managers and biologists at the meeting: What is the position of the DFG of the impact of tournament or open fishing during the spawn periods??? Has the DFG done a study on the impact to removing the parent fish from the nest??? If there is ev...

Norv

How about having it on Friday, September 24th through Sunday, September 26th???

I'd be happy to work with others to arrange things if the Rally could be held on that weekend.

Norv

Steve,

You can order Peregrine 250, Water Dog and Eagle Eye directly at www.peregrine250.com.

Derrick, As Mike Van Wagner said "Think out of the Box." Check with your college administration or foundation to see if they can provide alumni information you can use to make contact for support??? Does the college or foundation have a news letter that's sent to alumni??? Can you get an a...

Norv

Alec,

Sorry that the hats haven't arrived yet.

Good luck at Lake Mead.

Hope the Puff-Ball jigs from Lefty's Lures do the trick there.

Norv

Tony "B",

Great pictures. Thanks for sharing.

The CBAF is a fantastic organization that conducts great tournaments and support many worthwhile causes.

I believe that they are sponsoring a "Feed the Hungry" tournament later in May at Lake Berryessa.

Norv

Alec,

I'm hoping that the embroidered team hats that Tim of Xtreme Lubricants is making for your team will arrive in a few days so that you can wear them to the tournament.

Again good luck to you and your team mates at Lake Mead!!!

Norv

I was happy to help the members of the Sac State fishing team. The companies I represent have been supporting the team for the past two years with products and discounts.

Young anglers are the future of our sport and my companies and I are happy to do everything possible to support them.

Norv

Alec just came by and borrowed a bunch of ESOX Rods for his team members. I also gave him some Puff-Ball and regular jigs from Lefty's Lures, rod socks and lure wraps from Put a Sock on It and also some Peregrine 250, Water Dog and Eagle Eye from Peregrine 250 Products LLC. Good luck to the members ...

Norv

Alec,

Give me a call and I will loan you some ESOX Rods.

Norv

Didn't a union own it???

Norv

I just sent you my e-mail address.

Norv

You can purchase some xTreme Reel+ and clean them yourself.

Joann Martinez is stopping production of Put a Sock on It rod socks and lure wraps. She does have some stock left so if you want to get them you better hurry!!!

Norv

NoCal,

What are you doing sneaking out to prefish???

Norv

I'm unable to fish the CBAF tournament tomorrow. But, I can tell you that they put on a great tournament that's followed by a wonderful meal. I don't mean a hot dog or burger. It's usually a great sit down dinner at a local church with all of the food being prepared by the church members.

Norv

Gary,

Good luck in your new job. I really enjoyed working with you when I displayed products at your tournaments.

Norv

There isn't any color difference between the regular or mirrored lenses other than the reflective coating on the mirrored ones. It just a personal preference if you want the mirrored finish or not.

Norv

I agree that yellow is the best color for low light conditions. But, you will want to change it to a clear or smoked when the sun comes out otherwise it may be too bright!!!

Norv

Ash,

I brought some wires through the plastic caps into the cab of my 2008 GMC and it wasn't a problem. You can use a bit of silicone to seal up around where the wire enters the cap to keep everything water proof.

Norv

Wow, this was a great class!!! Now we all know Damon's secrets for wintertime fishing at Folsom Lake!!! For all of the School of Bass attendees that received a bottle of Xtreme Reel+ as a Christmas gift from Xtreme Lubricants at the class tonight. As Damon indicated it's a dry lubricant which means ...

Norv

ESOX Rods are hand made in the USA. Some of the components may come from overseas, but they are assembled here. If you are looking for blanks you can purchase them from ESOX Rods.

Norv

ESOX Rods are hand made in Richmond, IN. The company makes an awesome carbon fiber rod. Check them out at www.esoxfishingrods.com.

Low water drops Folsom Lake speed limit to 5 mph blindelof@sacbee.com Published Thursday, Oct. 22, 2009 Dropping water levels at Folsom Lake also have dragged down the speed limit for vessels cruising the reservoir.

Norv

I agree. I was also chosen to get a chance to win the fully loaded 20' Triton. I tried standing on two of the compartment lids, but Kent made me move so that I was only on one compartment. It was fantastic to see Bill win. When Bill called his fiance with the news she didn't believe him and Bernie H...

Norv

I was one of the six owners chosen to pick a compartment and it was a lot of fun being up on the deck of the boat with a 1 in 6 chance to take home the fully loaded Triton. Although I didn't win the boat I had a great time at the tournament and have already made my room reservations for next year!!!

Norv

I think the winning weight was around 42# for two days.

Norv

This was a fantastic tournament!!! The Triton Owner's Tournament is more than a tournament, it's an event!!! Even though my partner and I finished somewhere in the middle of the pack we both had a great time. The entry fee was a mere $200 and for that you got a great tackle pack which included four ...

Norv

Kent,

Thanks for the info on the launching and marina.

See you at the tournament!!!
