Casitas isn’t off the radar rated #4 in the country, expect more company.

Agree Northern Strain LMB are less then 69 pour scale count. California initial stack Florida strain same from Cypress Garden area and considered pure Florida strain LMB with average 72 pour scales, at the time the only way to physically identify them back in the 70’s.

Tell us something we heaven’t known for over 70 years, more lateral line pour scales, over 68 it’s a Florida LMB!

Gary said the Senko was a mistake as he was trying to make a jerk bait better then the Sluggo at the time.That fact it caught bass with the slight wiggle action on the fall just happened not designed. GSM more then likely made up higher production tooling to keep up with demand and managed to throug...

Maybe the result of a Archery contest? Carp eat lots of bass eggs these won’t be!
Should be disposed the carp in trash cans not laying on the back.

Check with Fisherman’s Warehouse ( Originally Delta Tackle) they did custom lure painting and may know who currently is!

Don’t recall a 17+ lb LMB caught in the past years!
Congratulations!
Tom

Hard to value date the length and no girth from the photo laying on the ground. Length is measured mouth closed. The numbers=15.1 lbs. and the bass looks like it.
Nice bass regardless
Tom

If true that would be the biggest LMB caught this year!

COC-LF ladder could be mounted onto 3/4”marine plywood and mount the plywood to the deck wherever it fits. You may need 2X4 blocks to raise and clear the boat side gunnel but doable.

The problem using transom mounted boat ladder when you are older is not being strong enough to climb onto the boat unless the ladder has hand handles to assist you. whatever you decide on make the ladder device has hand handles. I kept a heavy rope loop attached to the rear pedestal post to help me ...

Agree monofilament means “single filament” originally labeled for Nylon or Nylon blends copolymer line. When Fluorocarbon line was introduced by Seaguar they separated FC line from “mono” for marketing claiming the line was low light refraction and invisible in water. Good marketing because FC sold ...

Thanks didn’t see anything related to Don.
Normally I would go over to his home but travel has got n the way.
Tom

Anyone have info regarding Don, haven’t been able to contact him in a few weeks!

The solution is adding more water not trying to restrict it.
Developing desalination plants along our coastline producing more fresh water then currently being sent to Central and Southern California is the answer.

Suggestion for Apple IPad?
Tom

WRB

Thanks Mark, I have tried that several times, Mark delete and Go, an ad pops up and go back and start over, it’s catch 22. Something is haywire with my IPad.
You look comfortable with your procedure. At least the person who hit you carrier left their name.

Why in dash? The 1st thing I did with my boats was remove the in dash and go with adjustable RAM type mounts, your sonar units are unlimited.

Shasta depends on where your anglers chooses to fish. Sacramento arm is LMB McCloud River arm both Spots and LMB. Pit or Squaw Spots, LMB and a few Smallmouth. Main lake points mostly Spots.

Bill who tied Don’s jigs passed away several years ago. The ladies who poured Don’s soft plastics retired about 2 years ago. Don Iovino stopped offering both Bill’s jigs and hand poured soft plastics, both are no longer available.

30 lb Yo-Zuri Hybrid is still / .025D, not a common line choice for Deps 250. Suggest considering Maxima 25 or 30 lbs, smaller dia not to deaden the lures action. Your reel is on the small side, consider 300 size to hold more line. Fish around the dam areas, deeper water with fewer snags plus plante...

“Every time I have those green fish figured out they prove I don’t” Bill Murphy.
ROF matters when it does it helps me to determine strikes on the fall you don’
Check ROF out at the ramp known depth and count the fall down by watching the line jump slack.

No mention of penalties the perps haven’t been to court yet. The usual protocol is confiscation of the boat and all equipment, fines follow conviction.

Just adding my 2cents worth of free advice. You are the only person who determine the answer to your question. What about NRX+ sets that rod apart from all others? Price it one of the highest off the shelf rods bass rod made. Balance and rod weight isn’t outstanding. Lure feedback is more dependent ...
