Exactly. Oh by the way, did you hear Nordstrom's is open for business, come on in and help yourself to whatever you don't feel like paying for! Without consequences, outrageous behavior will continue to happen.

marinerfandave

Keep in mind this guy was already on probation, and here is his penalty for getting caught, like this will really keep him from doing it again? - "he was ordered to pay $885 in fines and penalties, ordered to perform 30 days of community labor, must forfeit all seized evidence including traps a...

Hi Steve, you technically won't get any lowball offers because the price isn't listed, how much are you asking?

marinerfandave

Sorry, just saw it $12,000

marinerfandave

Price?

Not as long a drive for you Joe as Lake Shasta, glad you are back on your home lake and the bass are cooperating!

marinerfandave

Congrats Joe on that nice 4.40 lb. bass, that had to feel good given the launching issues at Oroville, great video!

marinerfandave

Thanks Monkey Man, great stuff!

marinerfandave

Ditto on Bob Myskey, I've fished with him the last five years and done well. He is a little old school regarding the electronics but knows the lake extremely well as he lives right there and has been doing this for a very long time. I did two back to back days with him in early July 2020 and got a 6...

Congratulations on your move from CA to the USA, smart man! Best of luck!

You are the Muhammad Ali of bass fishing no doubt, the self proclaimed greatest. You should be on the tour and winning big money given your ability to catch great big fish all the time. Of note, you never show us what you are using, where you are, techniques, etc., that would be really helpful and g...

I see from your listing this is the "50th Anniversary Addition" boat, can you let me know if you have the "Subtraction" version of the same boat?

They are using the money to protect our Delta fishery

Thanks Monkeyman, great video once again!

marinerfandave

Congrats, great looking bass! Feel free to share more ....general location, depth, color, etc.

marinerfandave

Congrats and thanks for letting us know what she ate, great catch!!

marinerfandave

That's got to be Diamond Valley Lake, it would be great if the author could share more details with us other than just the pic (without giving all your secrets away of course). But just showing the pic of a Double D is just a tease to be quite honest. Don't post it unless you are willing to share mo...

I hear you but think about this, all the rod/reel combos we have, all the $$$ we have been forced to use for all the latest and greatest lures (thanks to the bait monkey!), etc. IF someone new to bass fishing asked me for advice on how to learn about bass fishing and how to do it CHEAPLY, I would re...

Observation, I have read countless articles and seen numerous videos where very experienced amateur and even some of the pros say this: "When fishing is tough and you are looking for a bite, use a drop shot". So for a simple minded person like me, "why not just start with the drop sho...

Like I said before, Economics 101. If the price he is asking is too high, it won't sell. And then he will lower the price until it does sell = supply and demand.

marinerfandave

I'm assuming you are not talking stripers because they have those in the Sacramento River and so that would be closest at a marina up there. For largemouth I would think somewhere down in Stockton off I-5 would be closest for you and get you fishing quickest. I'm not looking at any maps right now bu...

marinerfandave

Guys, this is Economics 101 - Supply and Demand. If someone buys the boat for $32K, he priced it right. If nobody buys it, he will lower the price until someone does buy it.

marinerfandave

Next time wear a tuxedo and hang on! Double digit?

marinerfandave

Price and contact info, those are the two most important things and were not included.

marinerfandave

Thanks Bassmonkey, good stuff!

marinerfandave

Congrats, nice one!

marinerfandave

Price?

marinerfandave

Amen, good to hear

Nixon's Marine lives in Pasco, WA

"very low coefficient of water drag", are you an engineer in So. CA who also loves bass fishing? I'm impressed...

marinerfandave

But if you're itching to buy the latest and greatest, do it! I am a fan of not doing that but your call

marinerfandave

Put me in a tank with cheeseburgers and another tank with carrot sticks....no need to spend money on that study.

marinerfandave

Ordered on Tuesday and received it today, two day turnaround. I'd say thing are better at TW

marinerfandave

Kent, thank you for stepping in and helping out, you demonstrate what customer service should look like but unfortunately nowadays doesn't always happen that way. You are the ultimate professional and hopefully this all works out for our boat buyer.

marinerfandave

Great video, what fun! Thanks for sharing monkeyman, nothing beats topwater success!

marinerfandave

Thanks BassMonkey, really good video and thanks for sharing

marinerfandave

Introduce them to Gary Dobyns for a lesson on how to treat customers. Without customers, nobody has a job. So it would be wise for St. Croix to remember that.

marinerfandave

i don't think they were trying to save on shipping. In a previous post a guy said he visited there warehouse in San Luis Obispo to pick up in person (was down there for some event) and he discovered it was a relatively small operation staffed by college kids largely. So when the pandemic hit and for...

marinerfandave

Thanks for the report Stan, good info and glad you were able to catch some nice ones!

marinerfandave

Congrats, that is awesome. I know you fish Clear Lake fairly regularly so you deserve a DD!

marinerfandave

Good job and thanks for sharing, looking forward to the next Frog Wars episode.

marinerfandave

Great post and thanks for sharing, a good reminder why it's called fishing and not "catching"! I was up at Clear Lake early last week with a guide whom I've had great success with for several years, it was extremely slow and the fish just weren't cooperating, every outing as you say is a n...

marinerfandave

Nice job Stan and thanks for the report on what was working, appreciate you sharing that

marinerfandave

Nice job Bassmonkey and good video, glad Modesto treated you well!

Here are a couple other things that stink - 1) Department of Motor Vehicles, 2) EDD aka Unemployment Office. He has had those monsters in his backyard for some time with absolutely zero improvements. The spotlight with COVID-19 allowed him to be in the news daily with the slick smile and slick hair....

marinerfandave

Thanks Bassmonkey, another great video and appreciate your sharing what you know and learn.

marinerfandave

I haven't gone on a guided trip with John "yet" on a Mother Lode lake but when I do, this leaves no question as to who I'm calling. Those are some pigs for Lake McClure, wow and congrats!!

There is a really good video today from Glenn May at Bass Resource website on things to ask/consider when buying a first boat. Here is the link:

Mark Poulson is spot on as usual. Yes it sucks we can't do what we love which for me includes fishing, going to the movies, going to a restaurant and eating inside, go to a sporting event, concert, etc. This will all go away once COVID-19 is done with. Stay safe, healthy, wear masks and hopefully so...

marinerfandave

Great video Bass Monkey and really appreciate the narrative so we can learn from what you found out there, I also appreciate your respect for the sport and the fish you catch, it shows for sure!
