Thanks Doug - I just decided to order the current new hot maps on SD instead of dealing with Ebay.

Byron

I just purchased a new 597ci/di hd combo and was wondering if a 2009 west lake maps chip will work for Lake Casitas. It is - Navionics NAV-MSD/HM-W HotMaps - Will it work in the 597?
Thanks, Byron

Byron

Sounds like fun - Let's go do Casitas! Nice play on words - I will be conducting an electrofishing survey

Byron

Well???? Did the weather clear for the night or did the lightning continue? The sparks were flying to close for me yesterday on Casitas to stick around. The ranger told me as I was being tagged that it hit the camp grounds. Fishing kinda sucked for me and when the lightning came in around 2pm I bail...

Anglers Marine has some nice bass!

I got stopped on the 101 near Westlake about 2 years ago for towing the boat at 70mph. Cost me $580 by the time I was done. Nice how you are now guilty untill proven inocent. Pay the fine first and then try to get it back in court. What happened to get a ticket, go to court, argue the case, If you l...

Byron

Thanks Jerry and the Dems.

Byron

Hey Leon - What happened to "everybody boycot Clear Lake" last month ???

Byron

Saw that Eric - nice job at piru last night. Burning out on Casitas lately myself so I just bought a second boat so I can once again venture out and leave the Nitro tied up for Casitas. Used to fish piru alot - just hate the "Lake Lice" all summer.

Byron

Did anyone hit up Casitas last night and how was it? I looked at the weather report and the day fishing has not been so good so I stayed home - with my luck it was most likely great.

Byron

Why is clear lake so concerned with the Quaggas when they are one of the worlds most mercury polluted bodies of water? Seems like they have bigger fish to fry.
And to leons post - Follow the rules and jump thru the hoops and the fine amount is not your problem.

Byron

You got it - use the flagship. Goes on easy and leaves a good shine. I do mine about every 3 months.

Byron

Should be fun for ya-all at Piru. Great night fishery 10+ years ago when I was doing it. I'll be checking out the night bite at Casitas tomorrow evening.

Byron

You can buy the ZAP-A-GAP at any Hobby People store, used to be Hobby Shack.

Byron

I have a nice one made by Streamlight with 2 brightnesses that goes on the hat or head. Works great and fairly lite.

Byron

I've been folowong this thread since the beginning, simply amazing transformation, awsome work.

Byron

Get off of UTube and go fishing!

Byron

Hey Ralph - How was the water at Casitas today? Did you go? how was the fishing? I have not been since mid Feb as an 88 year old lady stepped on the wrong pedal and creamed my truck. Then the following week My 3 1/2 year old Grandaughter was mauled in the face by a 50lb pitbull. Things are sorta bac...

Barefoot electroshocking ?

Byron

I have to agree with tossing the old style transom savers. My boat came with the traditional style of saver wich I used for the first 2 years. It was the good swivel eeze with the long adjustable engine end. Even with it secured properly with the steel cable on the roller, trimmed down snug it sucke...

Byron

Here are the ones I use - the large one holds 20 DD-22's that never touch each other. Check out the flipsider series.

Hey guys, anybody have a son 18-20 yrs old that has ambition, good personality, a job, college and career plans, transportation, likes fising and hunting so that I can introduce him to my 18 year old daughter so that she may dump the LOSER she is currently dating. I need help!!! PLEASE That's to fu...

Byron

How about some good quality vinyl graphics ? Otherwise just look a good local sign painter.

Byron

Here is what I would recomend - For the lousy cold idle - Remove the intake boot from the throttle body, open the throttle and wipe the oil deposits out of the bore with a rag and some carb spray first - that fixes 9 of 10 ford idle issues. Also look for any vacuum caps missing from the intake manif...

Byron

The only further damage could be to the Cata;ytic converter due to overheating caused by the misfire. Yes it is a dirrect replacment for the existing system. The update converts your system from CSFI to MFI. The needed parts are as follows ----- V-6 - 12568332 injector assembly, 88894355 Bracket, 17...

Find a Fry's Electronics - they have it in several colors and up to 3/4 in diameter.

Don't waste your time or money chasing missfires on that early vortec FI system. Have it replaced with the updated spyder assenbly and all problems will go away. The early poppet injectors are not worth replacing at $90.00 each. As soon as you replace 1 a different cylinder will give you issues. The...

Byron

I was up there today amd never saw over 69 deg. Fishing sucked - left at noon.

Byron

On my little Nitro 640LX with 52lb MG I swaped out the tray and put in a group 31. Runs all day at Casitas without slowing down. If you can fit the 31 it's lighter than 2 of the 24's and 27's.

Bye Bye Boxer !

Casitas Corner Market "Belly Buster"

Byron

This whole pole is crap. A 6th fish is in no way cheating - you can only weigh 5 anyway. There is absolutly no advantage to the 6th fish in the well. It is a rule violation at best. In order to cheat you must do something against the rules to your advantage.

Byron

Nice tail on that fish for sure!

Byron

And the stupid whining starts all over in a new thread.

Byron

Accually Kelly - the Normans have been kinda hit and miss lately. I made it up Monday and Thursday last week. Caught a few on the DD-14's but found a spotty topwater bite around the grass on Monday and only got 4 out of 11 topwater bites. Biggest of the day was 4.03 and on top. Thursday morning went...

Man, I miss that lake!

Hey mark - I'm just accross the airport from you in ES if you need a lift up there. I go quite often with an open back seat. I only have Saturdays and Sundays as I work M-F. PM me if your up for it ever.

Byron

Anyone have any product recommendation to fix small tears in the vinyl seats? Try this- Can't even see the repair unless you know where it is. It is not a patch but a liquid vinyl. It accually goes under the material and oozes back out the rip. It is then covered with textured paper untill dry. Pee...

Rick doesn't seem to show up here any more. Kind of a dead forum now days. Last post is almost a year old.

Ralph wrote:Haven't been able to get out much lately to Casitas, but will be Saturday/Sunday. Anyone have any info on what the bite is now? Topwater? Thanks in advance

Looks like the wind will be blowing.

Byron

They will get thiers for sure. I read a couple months ago that Clear Lake is "The most mercury polluted body of water in the WORLD" due to the Mine runoff.

Byron

A great big High-5 to Mr. Estes on that one.

Byron

Good question - I just spent 1/2 hour searching the web and your right, It isn't there.

Byron

Try these guys - I have ran thier bearings in my 22,000 rpm Nitro RC engines and some of my reels. Great prices and selection on great bearings.http://www.vxb.com/page/bearings/CTGY/F ... l-Bearings

yes sir...i am feeling a little better about things...whether the bite holds up is one thing...but lets just say we had one heck of a day this past weekend! :shock: Yes it was a good bite last weekend wasn't it. I had a good Saturday afternoon. I also will be there Saturday just getting in all your...

You could see my buddy Miguel at M&K Marine in Hawthorne. Reasonable prices, great work, and a great guy. Been in the biz for over 40 years (used to be Shaws Marine).

What are you talking about - We do not have a great President.

Such nice grammer. :roll: And the american people did not ask for the government run medical he is pushing so hard for. The people did not ask to pay for the "Cash for Clunkers" program. The people did not ask to bail out the financial institutions on our dime. The people did not ask to fu...

I still have 100's of Jelly worms from the late 70's early 80's that I got from my Father. We used to kick as$ with them at Casitas and San Antonio.
