It's been blowing hard since yesterday. I wouldn't be out there right now.

That elbow was dumb..... left him Wide Open and that was a perfectly timed counter right on the button. He's young though - he'll be back a smarter, better fighter. Dude's a machine. Yup. He should have a great career if he reigns himself in. I agree he got ahead of himself with that elbow. Maybe a...

Faber got beat quick. I didn't think I see this anytime soon. Wha' happened to the boy? Walked right into the KO. After Pulver I thought he'd be unbeatable for a while. Well, that's MMA for ya'.

What about a sticker for your boat that comes with your fishing license? It ain't perfect but it might help.

vinnybass

Who would've thought a year ago that the "lucky" ones are the those who fish lakes that are already infested?

I found a 24P stainless prop at Mead about five feet up the bank. It was in good shape. Probably lost in about 25 feet last year & just got exposed in August when I found it.

Canyon Plastics owners JL Pennington & Bob Brown are up on the Delta right now. You can bet they brought a bunch of those with them. Look for them in a white Ranger 521 with a Yamaha.

vinnybass

Agreed, Christina & the staff did an excellent job keeping things sorted out for us. The way they handled the whole situation from the parking to letting us book an extra night when we weren't booked for Saturday really let me know they value our business & for my buck they'll continue to ge...

We already have enough 13" fish.

Congrat's Murph. See'ya down here later this month for Angler's Choice?

vinnybass

Well in case this is turning into a poll, I'm gonna call for Friday/Saturday. I've got family/church obligations on Sundays so I'd probably not fish if it went into Sunday. BTW, I do seem to remember Vern saying no Ts on Sundays.

I'm pullin' for ya' Bob. I hope you got 'em good again today.

Don't forget to grease the pivot where it tilts also. There is a zerk on the front center of the pivot that needs grease from time to time.

vinnybass

Loop knot for me too.

I've been using six of the Scorpion 1000MGs (same reel before they were exporting them) for close to two years. While it's true you will wear the finish off them they are still as good mechanically as when I bought them. It seems like it's the clearcoat over the silver paint that goes away, I don't ...

wanna cool little trick that we do for the stipers, and the occassional largmouth will hit it...get a cheap topwater (walking bait) like the Rebel and insert it in the cavity of the tora tube....make sure you take the hooks off, then push the front eyelette through and then the split rings for the ...

It's pretty calm here in town right now, but the weather says it's supposed to be 16mph or so. Good luck to y'all who will be out there & stay safe.

vinnybass

They confirmed what I already knew, XPS is good line & the price is right.

FYI

We have the DFI Optimax oil in 2.5 Gals at $59, thats $23.60 a gallon, Plus Tax.

The Premium Plus in bulk is $18.35.

Can you ship that by the case? If so, how much for shipping?

vinnybass

Good to meet you in the weigh-in line yesterday. Yeah it was off the hook. Fish were everywhere, yet we could only get 15.30 ourselves. Oh well it was a great day of fishing anyway. We just couldn't get a couple of the big girls to go.

vinnybass

wow!! I will never wear a suspender type life-vest, and this just solidified my reasoning.....listening to Mike Goodwin's ordeal in Havasu in November and another angler on Mohave who went through his windshield after spearing a huge wave.....if he didn't have a full vest, the plexiglass would have...

vinnybass

BPS XPS fluoro. Cheap & good.

vinnybass

They're the same. BTW, I also did that in my garage & cheesed up the cowl & the stucco. I gotta put mine all the way up to get it up the driveway to clear the skeg, then just when the motor is close to hitting I put it all the way down to clear the cowl from the house. It's a b!tch but it ge...

vinnybass

Maybe I should clarify. I was saying a swivel can do the same thing as the clip, not the weight with a clip. Just run the line through the weight then the eye of the swivel then tie the hook. After that put the hook in the bait's nose just like always the bring the snap down & over the hook poin...

vinnybass

You can do the same thing with a cheesy snap swivel. Some guys been doing it like that all along.

vinnybass

I like it. Plus you can have about any color jig you'd want without carrying 200 pounds of them in the boat.

vinnybass

Here ya' go: http://www.mcmaster.com/ You can get so many for so cheap you can load up a lifetime supply for you & everyone you know.

vinnybass

I got three small fish on Saturday. It looks like three a day would be pretty good from what I've been hearing. Oh well, I'll be at work. Good luck to all.

Actually that would be a conflict with my new sponsor "Rocket Rod," I just hope I don't clear the tank with that thing & injure some kid.

vinnybass

Glad to hear it, Vern. I'll see you out there next week.

vinnybass

It's listed as 3:00 mountain time. Doesn't that make it 2:00 to the rest of us?

vinnybass

Get well soon, Vern...We need to see you out there. My prayers go out for your recovery.

vinnybass

I tried them & didn't like them. I don't have any problem getting my bait to stand out though. You just gotta run the tag line down throught the top of the hook eye & it will hang right. IMO, as always & YMMV.

vinnybass

The news reported last night that now they think it was something else...not zebra mussels. Let's hope so.

vinnybass

Is anyone else not getting the feed? It's in & out for me.

vinnybass

They're closing it down. A couple of weeks ago I saw on the news they gave everyone 30 days to get out. The marina and the trailer park. I don't know if there is any reprieve or delay to the timing but if not they should be working on moving that stuff out of there right now.

vinnybass

He's got an Evinrude.

vinnybass

How long?

vinnybass

I hate to say it but, it's seized. Mine ('02 Opti) did exactly the same thing. I hope for your sake I'm wrong, but I'm probably not. Bummer man, I feel your pain.

vinnybass

I got mine in under a week too so you should be good. It really sucks about the Overton Marina, I was up there a coupla' weeks ago & the outside tire line was in about 12' of water. They said on the news those folks had 30 days to get out of their mobile homes up there. There's still alot of hou...

vinnybass

Just to clear up what I posted earlier: I talked to Bob Brown (He & JL Pennington bought Canyon Plastics) & he told me Garry had discontinued them for a while but since Bob & JL took over those jigs are in regular production in 13 colors. Some of you who aren't Las Vegas locals may not k...

[quote= Only place you can still get them is Canyon plastics and last I heard they were gonna drop them. :cry: Gonna have to close out the stock I have and then hoard my personal stash like a miser.[/quote] FWIW, Canyon Plastics isn't planning on dropping the spider jig. But don't let that stop you ...

vinnybass

Really sorry to hear about your problem as I have been through the exact thing a couple years ago. Here is a little tip that can help prevent it from occuring. Since most of our line wrap problems occur while we are trolling "good" areas where you have many other snags and line hanging of...

vinnybass

It's the only knot I use on a D/S, and you know I can dropshot DeeJay. That's what got me that 6lber on 6# line down at Havasu. I know you remember that.

vinnybass

So, were you skunked for the rest of the day?

vinnybass

I've gotten reels, spools, & handles from them a few different times. I haven't had any problems.
