Re: Tournament Anglers MUST HAVE THIS for CA TOURNAMENTS

Lake Arrowhead in So cal uses high temp water flush. It's a private lake accessible only to locals with lake rights. My grandson just bought a boat and I watched them flush it. Gets tagged when he pulls it out and as long as the tag is not disturbed he can launch without being flushed again.

Re: Thanks to the Northern CA glass repair shop

Glad you were able to get it fixed. Jason replaced the transom on my Champion a couple years ago. Very happy with his work and reasonablely priced. C&C also does my maintenance and has been very good.

Used to be if you stayed on the left side of the ramp it was better but the lousy road and ramp has had me launching at Whisky instead of Tiki. A bit pricey ($15.00) but easier on equipment. Low tide at Whisky is not great ether but better than Tiki.
