Re: WWBT2017 Clear Lake Teams Info

It gets really tiresome to hear the negativity all the time, particularly when something is being done extremely well. I think Gary and Jason need to be commended and should be held up as an example of how tournaments should be run. 172 boats (7 fish limits!) completely weighed and back in the water...

Re: WWBT2017 Clear Lake Teams Info

I think I've fished almost every circuit in Northern California at least once or twice and I have been very impressed with the way WWBT has run their events. The numbers of boats that are showing up are evidence that others feel the same way. The launch and weigh-in process has been extremely effici...

Re: Oroville water conditions?

Surprisingly, much more clear than I thought it would be. Some places in the main lake had 3-4 of visibility in the morning before winds picked up. Murkier up in the Middle Fork. Never found any "muddy" water. Can't speak for the whole lake though. Sure some places were worse.

San Vicente Reservoir After 8 Years Being Closed

It will eventually succumb to the fishing pressure, but for the next couple months it will be awfully fun to fish down there. It sounds like it was quite an experience to be one of the first out yesterday. http://www.scout.com/outdoors/fishhound/story/1709994-world-class-bass-lake-reopens-after-8-ye...

Re: WWBT Shasta Day 1 Pro Results

The WWBT Pro/Am events will be aired as a TV show on Fox Sports West/Pursuit Channel sometime in early 2017.

The daily weigh-ins are streamed live starting at 2:45 pm PT each day during the events.

Re: Wild West Bass Trail 2016 CA & AZ Dates & Trailer

I agree with having a practice day for the teams. Maybe just a one day practice. Even just coming from Reno, I've got a 3-4 hour drive to almost any lake. One day of practice allows for one drive down, as opposed to trying to prefish the weekend before and having two trips to the lake.

For Senkos, I have been using the Dobyns Savvy 734 for the last year. I throw a lot of the 7 inch and it has the right power and sensitivity to get the job done. Really versatile rod too, if you want something to use for multiple applications!
