$1,1100 and some change for my new Z21. Guess the 10k I paid in sales tax wasn't enough.

But I may win dozens of dollars in a tourny so I guess its worth it. That's what I tell my wife anyway.

Got it down to about $500.00 per fish and dropping.

I was there all week camping back in Steel. The water is low but you are still able to leave your boat in the water a few hundred yards from your campsite. The Sheriff was out on Sat and writing tickets all day so tread lightly on the 10 min drive out now. Just a quick rant... A bass boat pulled int...

Hey,

Is this campsite open? There is lots of conflicting reports. I am going there next week and have been billed for reservations but I cant get a live person to tell me if its accually open. Different sites say open and others say closed.

Anyone actually been there in the last week or 2?

Hey,

I have a couple of these and a few years ago i purchased upgraded metal wheels with bearings in them from Motorguide. The groove is deeper in these and it eliminated the cable jump.

If you have the old plastics wheels I recommend changing them as a cheap fix.

Hey all, I just upgraded my Lowrance to the Elite 9ti and I am looking to install hotmaps and dont know what is the best for hte buck. I mostly fish the Delta and also the local lakes like berressa, clear lake, melones. They have the the HotMaps Platnum on sale this month for 169. Is this the right ...

Hey, I think someone brought this up but I will again as its best to start with basics. There should be 1 breaker at each battery on the positive cable. Usually they are very small rectangular maybe 3/4 inches by 1.5 inches. sometimes they get taped over and you don't notice them (been there). look ...

Hello All, Wanted to shout out to Randy for putting on a great show and making everything run well. My son and I have been fishing this tournament on the Semi Pro side for several years and he has been carrying the load in fishing for the last several. He caught this 8.96 pounder that ended up getti...

Hey all, I was around the corner fishing when this happened. It was a super high tide starting to flow. There are cement and wood pylon between the end of the twin slews to the first pylon. You are fine if you are in the channel under the drawbridge part. The big factor sat was due to the super high...

Hey all, OK, I am ready to upgrade my front sonar and I want to maybe put in a down imaging humminbird and attach to the trolling motor. what is my best choice for around 500 or so. bigger screen is a plus for us old guys too. are there any interference issues (motor guide tour edition motor). Also,...

senkoboy

Hey all, I definatley appriciate all the support and insight. I am happy to say that I have spoke to the T.D. and he has made all right and even admited himself that after checking, the "declare rule" was not there and such has included our fish into the process. He also chucked in a nice ...

senkoboy

I hate to keep beating on this, but for my own growth of understanding the rule can some find the dang thing for me. I have gone thru the snag proof open rule several times (yes, even before the tourny) and this rule must be in my blind spot as I cant find it. Maybe many of the quoters of this rule ...

senkoboy

For all the rule guys who keep quoting this rule. Where is the dang thing. Yes, I read the rules prior to, during and after and I still cant find the dang thing even thou I have certainly had enough people pull it out of the holster and fire them at me. Can anyone tell me what number it is in the sn...

senkoboy

Ok, Honest question as it had not occured to me. When you sign up for big fish pot can does it count for both days? Is this the point you are making? If i declare my "big fish" on sat am I out on Sunday? If so... then I get it, otherwise i still dont get your poker analogy. I am in the pot...

senkoboy

Dom, While I expected the close minded its a rule and you should know it, please don't think your inability to know a legal sized fish (even thou they usually tell you 3 or 4 times a tourny) is the same as this technicallity. I dont expect to get tickets in a 55 mph when I am driving 56 even thou I ...

senkoboy

Hey all, I do not like to rant and complain, but I feel like my partner and I got screwed by a technicality this weekend and I would like some input. We are just basic amature fisherman and we get off the leash a few times a year to fish a tourneyment. On sat I caught a 4.04 pound fish that we where...

Hey,

Does anyone have the website to the Rod floats that are advertised in I think bassmaster mag or bass west. I bought some of these that go on the butt of the rod and they work great and I want to get a few more.

Hello,

We need a large rental house in clear lake in the nov timeframe. It would be nice to have 6 - 8 beds. We would like to be in soda bay or south. any info would be great.

thx,

senkoboy

Does it go one way and not the other. If so, it is the switchs in the engine. They are easy to replace and about 15 bucks per unit. Replace both if so as one is for up and one is for down.

im just trying to figure out how to hide a ten pound wieght in a one pound fish.

Jeez, I hate to screw up a fishing day so im kind of a maniac: On top of all the above how bout, spare motorguide motor, props for both motorguide and cheep alum for mercury, prop wrench and hub kit, fuses, screw, nut and bolt kit, multimeter, 2 sets of dry cloths in bag, emergency drinking water, r...

senkoboy

so if i just leave pot and twinkies in my live well its ok if i just leave it up to the bass from there

senkoboy

I have had the net that goes into the tube (Hibernet it is called I think) for a few years and it has held up fine. You need to practice with it a few times as you really gotta man up to open it fully. It is a great size thou and stores great under your feet when it is closed.

Johnny,

Hey, i have been all over melones. Where is the underwater bridge at?

What old bridge?

senkoboy

Theres allways one in the crowd. LOL

senkoboy

If you are doing it yourself and are nervous like i was with the first cut. I recomend drilling a 2 inch hold righ in the middle of where you want it to go and look around to make sure nothing is in the way ie wire, frame etc. On my triton once i drilled the inspection hole i needed to move it about...

I also need a pro to sign up with. Send me an email and we can work it out.

Kinda a side note on the Lowrance, but I took out my knobs and put in allen screws to hold in both my sonars. figured it would at least keep the 10 year olds from stealling 2k worth of electronics.

As I said. The censorship continues. good answer.

Hey all, Sounds like a lot of dancing around the statement but no answer. Perhaps its easy to hang a guy in Texas from here but no one want to go on record in our own backyard. I have heard the rumors about Sapp for years and have no knowledge either way. Seems like a nice enough guy but it seems li...

Hey, My buddy just moved out to Discovery bay and has a couple of question that I know yall can answer. 1. Where is the cheapest place from discovery bay to get fuel. 2. What are the rules for driving at night. For instance, coming back from union point (on the water) after dinner (ten or 11 at nigh...

senkoboy

While your at it. It would be a great feature if there was a search feature in the classifieds. if you had a keyword search feature you could search for ranger, triton, 18ft etc.

just my 1 cent. tuff times use to get 2 cents.

Has anyone tried to velro a throw cushion to the deck or other spot on the boat. my trition has a perfect hard spot between the seats. I usually put the throw cushion there is I have a third person on board. I just don't know if it will stay put on land and sea with no one sitting on it. I will try ...

Hey all, I am fishing in the Stren tourny at shast next week as a co-angler. I have bass fished in team tournys for several years, but this is my first time in a pro-am. Please give me any edicate tips to help me get thru the first couple of day. I am not talking fishing tips, but should I pay the l...

senkoboy

Heres my tip of the day. First get a hole sale and drill a 2 inch inspection hole where you have your pedel now. Look around inside before you make you big cut to check for anything in the way. Also, if you chicken out the just put the pedel back on the hole. It saved me on my triton as i had a cros...

Hey,

hey all,

i just got my 09 CF stickers in the mail. Can I put them over the 07 right now, or do I need to wait until after the first. From a not loosing them point of view, I would love to just put them on right now while they are still on my feeble mind.
