Re: MUST READ-Motherlode Bass Elite Announcement
This is unbelievable. You are dropping the two tournaments at the best lake in the Motherlode where it took almost 20lbs to get a check and over 40lbs too win last year? You never asked anyone that I know in Toulumne County, the Motherlode, what they wanted. Why on earth would you drop 2 Melones and...

Does anyone know if there is an Off-Limits at Melones for the TOC. No body at WON answeres the phone and no one will reply to my e-mails. Doesn't say anything in the papers they sent me either.

If you can't catch a limit at Melones right now you better quit fishing tourneys. I was back 3 days last week cause I kept catching limits of 5 lb +/- spots all day and lost count of the 2 lbers. The fishing is fantastic.
