There is a Courtyard by Marriot right on March and Brookside road also. Good Place and safe. You can stay right at River Point if you have a travel trailer or motorhome.

Bramb, I think the Kirkland batts are junk. I bought P&E batts from Fishermans warehouse in Manteca and they have been great batts for a fair price for me. I hear there are only a few places left that manufacture batts anymore so a lot of them are made in the same place and are really the same b...

Settle down big guy, I never said it was the best way. Just said it works for them. And I don't see you up there. If you watched, the fish did run a couple times when he was hand lining them and he still got them in. Besides like Doug mentioned, if you reel her up to the top and she thrashes around...

Apparently it works for both of those guys. Cahed more checks that most people I know.

Besides, when you fish a "NO Nets" tourney, ya do what you gotta do. Definitely better that swingin em.

Internet scouting is lame find your own sh1t!

Besides I heard they were in Big Break!

We have one about 11' and a couple of 5'ers that hang around the back yard. Not sure what the best way to handle it would be.

But I'm NOT messing with the big one

AR15.............BT!!! Right behind the ear.

Guess I'll have to figure out how to check the fluid level. Man, it seems it never ends. If it's not one thing, it's another. I also have to replace the wood slats on my tailor (not sure if slats are the right word) as I noticed one of them is smashed and broken at the very end. Saw a guy advertisi...

Garcia 4600 or 5600---6:3.1 , the couple years I have been fishing, you can't get more bang for your buck, handles all you can give it, plus they been around a long time. Had a couple Garcia's and just don't care for how they feel in my hand. Just personal preference I guess. I even bought a Revo a...

Thanks for the advise. Took out Xmas money.

Think I'll go with a 5 to 1 and try it.

duckhuntr07

So I have a New Curado 200 E7 on my current CB rod but I'm wondering if the 7.0:1 is the optimal reel gear ratio. Is there advantages to going with a lower ratio on a CB rod?

I'd sure like to hear some opinions on this one.

Thanks

Nice Striper Dom

I like the loomis BCFR 894 GLX Light and I cant bend the eyes

duckhuntr07

Hope you put the cell phone in the glove box!!

That'll cost ya

Nice splash but it it could have been worse.

duckhuntr07

Tracy Oasis is the place. Super friendly and a great launch ramp. A great up to date tackle shop also.

PI** on Rivers End!!

Orwood is nice also but a little bit more of a drive.

duckhuntr07

Did you catch that neer that sunken Chevy in Whiskey?

Nice Fish!!!

Bet that wasn't on a drop shot.

C'mon, what gives???

duckhuntr07

Wow, Conrats Dean!!

Way to get 'em

Who needs a drop shot after all!!

Glad to hear it man, you have certianly put enough time in to earn it.

Beers on you Wednesday!

Delta fishing is fun because at any given time or any given cast you could hook a fish of a lifetime. I say hook because hookin one and landin one are two totally different things. You might catch 20 spots in a day but you'd spit on them for a 10+ LMB especially if she blows up that top water bait N...

High tide = inside the weed lines between tules (or rocks) and the weeds in water with access to deeper water (10ft+)

Low Tides = outside weed lines with access to deeper water.

I find the bigger swings to benefit the high tide bite

Pro-tourney good......Optimuim is good....but I promise you some of the others are crap......I lost a donkey on a frog a few years back that still haunts me....Giant eats the WHITE frog. I wait and set with a vegence. Can see the monster swimming around with the froig in its mouth. I jerk the s out...

duckhuntr07

I use ths rod. I can walk the frog fine but it does seem a bit stiff. I have read other posts on this rod and it seems that a lot of folks don't like this rod for frog fishin. I am interested to see some other responses to this post.

duckhuntr07

I'm in!!! DOWN WITH THE LIVE BAIT MEAT FISHERMAN!!

Get yer pitchforks boys.......we'll save them bass!!

I do agree that catching fish and taking them to whatever dock yer weighin in at and then releasing them there has to have some effect.

duckhuntr07

Thanks for all the feedback guys. Good points on the eyes missing, I guess it shouldn't matter. We all know there are some real freaks of nature swimmin around out there. I'll call ya Justin, thanks man. Wuz up with the "Southern Cross" by the way??? I didn't know you were a southerner.

duckhuntr07

Will someone please tell me the best way to get in touch with the right person at True Tungsten swimbaits? I have the large 7" size in bluegill color and I caught a good fish on it a couple weeks ago. The problem is that after trowing it all day it now has a missing eye. This is the second one ...

What was I gonna do Big daddy? It was like early morning June at Rivers End so wasn't that bad....Actually kind of refreshing..... Guess you either ask someone to retrieve it for you or go for a swim. It aint like it's goin anywhere at Rivers End Launch. I've seen you do the dump and run technique ...

Good carp are dead carp.

Wish I could shoot a few. I saw a ton of them in Mildred also.

Is a cross bow legal?

duckhuntr07

I launch all the time solo....Easy....WITH MINE I detach everything and back down until I see the *** just float and then another foot back and put in park and walk back and get in and go...even better if ya angle towards the dock just a little. Only got away once.....good thing it was a warm after...

What is the deal with the rods for sale out there that say December 31, 2009? I assume that means that f you buy one of those rods and it breaks on Jan 1, 2010 or after it will not be replaced under warranty. Is that correct? I realize that the folks that are selling them are doing so at a discount ...

duckhuntr07

Soooooo.........what time of year have YOU been most successful in Holland Tract Cooch????

duckhuntr07

Ok, ..........how'd ya do it?

duckhuntr07

Great advice also, I'm familiar with the dissimilar metal issue. I will go with SS for the plate. That will be stronger also. Thanks Kopper. I just need to figure out how to get to the back side of where the nuts and plate will go. I don't want to pull back the carpeting until I know what I'm doing.

duckhuntr07

Thanks again, I have the idea on the aluminum strip and SS screws and nuts. The problem is when I turn the lids overthe back part of where the screws would og in seems to be insidethe hollow top portion of the lid. In other words, the rivets now go into the top edge of the back edge of the lid (oppo...

duckhuntr07

Thanks for al the feedback guys. So, 1/4" Aluminum backing plate and SS screws and nuts. I haven't taken them apart yet but it looks like the rivets went into a hollow part in the back edge of the lids. I couldn't see the back side of the rivets. How would I get the amminum plating into that ho...

duckhuntr07

I have a few of the deck lids on my boat that have broken the pop rivets that hold the lids to the hinges. Does anyone have advice on fixing them? The center lid in the front and one of the live well covers and one of the rear compartment covers. It's a 2001 R83VS and last time at C&C they said ...

All lead acid batteries are not created equal even if they come out of the same plant. The quality of lead and construction varies by the price of the battery. I would avoid Wal Mart batteries since they generally don't last longer then a couple years. I would go with Costco batteries over the Wal ...

duckhuntr07

You're right it might have been the haze.

I bought them from Tim at Fishermans Whorehouse in Manteca. I think they call them P&E's. I gave them $95 a piece, they've been great so far.

NorCal batteries in Stockton had Interstates for about that much also.

So, I was standing on the button cranked up on 5 to try to catch up with my buddy and fight the current a bit and I loked down at the head of my motorgide 767 Brute (67lb) and I noticed smoke coming out the side of the head. I of course backed off and ran her on lower settings for the rest of the da...

Nice Fish BDBR!!

duckhuntr07

I agree, that elbow looked like showboating and he got caught.

duckhuntr07

Shame and embarassement, why you gotta rub it in? Those live wells are lonely lately. I met a great guy in 14 mile slough on Sat that borrowed my scale to weigh a donkey. That hurt after catching rats all day. This weekend is ducks on Sat and pig hunting on Sun. Can you play hookey one day next week?

duckhuntr07

If you can install two cieling fans over your boat in the garage, one on the front deck one on the back. When you get home turn on the fans and let them blow down on the boat. Just be careful when getting into the boat to open up the lockers that the fans are OFF> Trust me on that!! I have one over...

duckhuntr07

Thanks for all the tips. I have the fans going now but I need to open the lockers.

duckhuntr07

I fished most of the day on Sat and soaked the boat. How do you guys dry your boats when the carpet gets soaked.

My garage is starting to smell pretty musty.

Not when it's Sunny and 80 degrees out. Let me know when you're going out next.

Wow, where's the love buddy?

Very nice fish.

duckhuntr07

Another vote for Bob's, hands down the best.

I've eaten at Orrwood and it was just OK.

Union Point is good also.

I've also eaten at the river boat which is good but I never had a burger there.

Heard they stab folks at lost isle, wont find me there.

duckhuntr07

I have to concour. I was fun fishing out of B&W on Sunday and came in the same time as the tourney. We were out of the water in minutes and everything went well. They were directing traffic and keeping the incoming boats out of the way of the guys coming out. Now please kill this thread before i...

duckhuntr07

Great tourney idea!

you'd have to guess to pre-fish........I guess

duckhuntr07

Sooo.........did the Doc grab a hold of that gauze in your nasal cavity and give it a yank yet? If not you're in for some real fun!!

That septum surgery is really fun.

Good Luck, speedy recovery....You'll be rippin lip in no time.
