I have rented this place twice before. Outstanding place. If anyone wants to know, Steve is a stand up guy, and this place is truly a great place. Fishing paradise.

bigdog

GREAT JOB DEAN!!! You are on a roll......keep it up!!

bigdog

Jared, those are all good colors you have chosen there. If the LV500 is not working, maybe try flippin a beaver on the outside edges of weedline, I heard that will sometimes work......

bigdog

I agree Justin!

bigdog

Hey, why is it that you need a new rod like this???? I heard a funny story that sounds like this.....OH wait, I think I was there! Was there some other dude with you just flippin fish left and right?? Maybe it was a dream. Just kidding J. No charge for the lesson:)

bigdog

OUTSTANDING Dean (and partner). DBT is very proud of you. And beat the pros' weight as well........good stuff, you earned it!

bigdog

Its my understanding that the Semi-pros beat the Pros weight. Not sure and NOT trying to undermine ANYONES performance. Congrats to them as well!

bigdog

GREAT VIDEO. I DIDNT KNOW THAT ALL THAT SPECIALTY PUNCHING GEAR WAS AVAILABLE. I NEED TO GET THAT STUFF, GUESS IM GOING TO THE HOOK!

bigdog

Thanks Dan! I will look forward to meeting you as well. I actually did the valet parking thing last year (my first time at the event) and was just very impressed with the whole thing. I am stoked for Sunday!

bigdog

Im surly no pro, but I just signed up to take a teen. I will do my best to put them on fish. Im in!

bigdog

I was having the same problem. I had the cable replaced and that fixed it. However, WD40 or PB Blaster would probably help. If cable is old, replace it, if not, try the lube and/or adjust cable. Hope this helps.

bigdog

I tried it early morning the other day for about 25 casts. No takers. Nothing on top that day, just one short striker on the frog.

bigdog

thanks for all you advice. It is just gelcoat, no fiberglass damage. I have seen the Tap Plastics videos and will attempt this. Looks doable to me. I priced having it professionally done, and that is NOT doable.

bigdog

Was wondering if I could get some advice here. I just noticed a pretty good "scrape" on bottom of my Stratos. About 6 inches long, paint is gone, not a hole, but fair amount of fiberglass damage. Looks like I hit a rock or something. How urgent is it that I get this repaired? And what more...

bigdog

I just picked up the X Tools scale. Lip-gripper type and it will store your five fish in memory. Great scale, used it only a few times so far, but I like it alot. Weighs up to 25 lb fish. Hope this helps.

bigdog · Re: ABA Delta 6/13/09 No Membership Needed Thanks!

Thanks!

bigdog

quick question, and Im sure a dumb question......is that enty fee for both, or $220 each person on the boat?

bigdog

if you are near Tracy, Mo lives at Tracy Oasis Marina, does great work and great pricing. Mo 209 612 6640 tell him bigdog from Tracy sent you.

sprint, rating=4

bigdog

HENRY, thanks for the reel and the crankbaits! I have cought several on those shallow divers. The reel is fantastic. You are a stand up guy! Thanks again,

bigdog

Does anyone know a good rod repair person somewhere near Tracy? Any referals would be great. Thanks guys.

bigdog

bigdog

I like this idea! I will do it anyday, Sunday or weekday. I will keep an eye on this post. Count me in. Great idea.......sounds like a blast and some of us could get to know eachother.

bigdog

I have always used about 2-3 oz of SEAFOAM in like every tankful. I have a 2 stroke 200 hp and I swear by the stuff. Cant say for sure if Im not just wasting money, but the guys at the boat shop say its a great idea to use it.

bigdog

PLUS 1...... BOATMASTERS. You cant go wrong on this choice.

bigdog

I use BOATMASTERS in Livermore. They are a great shop, real honest stand up guys. I know its a bit far from Sac, but well worth it. I would not go anywhere else. They have always gone over and above for me. They have a great reputation and are very professional. Enough said.

bigdog

is there a fee for the inspection and/or sticker? If so, how much and what other places can it be done?

bigdog

I just got my seat re done and the whole carpet last week. I have a great connection if you live near Tracy. PM me for his contact info. Good price as well!

bigdog

Moe has ALWAYS done a great job for me. Fast turnarounf and he evens matches colors if he has it. VERY good work.

bigdog

A great question with many answers. I am interested in what the experts here have to say on this. I expect many different answers. Hey you big sticks.....help us out here.

bigdog

Vince, cork for sure! I have much better sensitivity. I really like the swimbait (cork) rod that I bought from you guys at ISE!
PEACE.
Dont forget our planned trip in April

bigdog

Marathon have been the best for me, made for trailers and they LAST!

bigdog

Thanks, that makes alot more sense the way you explained it. Yes, I do have a bass boat. I knew I could count on you guys for a thourogh answer. I will do as you say and just keep it clean and wax bottom maybe once per year. THANKS AGAIN for your knowledge.

bigdog

I ran into a bass guy I know while I was purchasing some wax for my boat; he said NOT to wax the bottom of the boat. He said it will actually increase resistance on the water??? Doesn't make sense to me. I was always under the impression the more waxed the bottom, the better. Can I have some input h...

bigdog

Just looking to see if anyone is willing to offer some insight to this? Just haveing trouble getting bit at all latley. Is this nice weather gearing up the bass? I have found 52 degree water. Are some fish in pre-spawn mode? If so, how would someone go about targeting them? What types of areas, what...

bigdog

I have never used anything but Power Pro, so I can't comment on the others. However, I use 50 lb on 5 of the 8 rods I usually use. I fish the delta alot! Only problem I have had with braid is that it will slice quick if a fish runs it accross rocks. Some say flouracarbon for flippin rocks, but I jus...

bigdog

I agree, I got the swimbait one at ISE. Just a great feel. I want more of them in my arsenal!

bigdog

A special thank you goes out to Vince Borges from Phenix Rods at the Sac ISE. I bought their new swimbait rod (7"11") at the show and Vince hooked me up with a GoreTex Phenix logo jacket! A very nice jacket, is 2 jackets in one, very cool. I have tried the rod a few days ago and just love ...

OK, here is MIke Osgoods' phone #, he is out of Modesto, but well worth the trip whereever you are. He has done several wiring things on my boat, he really knows his stuff. To get the Stealth 1 Charge on the go system call him @ 408-821-2948 (cell).

bigdog

Just wanted to say what a great job and a great charging system I just had installed by Mike Osgood owner of Equipment Pros. Wow what a difference in my battery power and it charges the trolling motor batteries when the big motor is on. If you want the absolute best in on board charging go see Mike ...
