You know no matter how good any product may be, there's always a chance of failure. Some of you guys amaze me. I've learned to expect nothing else from bruizer. I've yet to figure out how most of his posts can help a cause, but to each their own. Then you guys that say he must of hit it on some rock...

MIKE TREMONT

I caught that fish and your Punker!

It was a Carp

!

Seriously, that's the kind of luck I have.

MIKE TREMONT

Thank you Dan.

I should be hearing from the folks any day now and we'll see how things go.

MIKE TREMONT

When I bought mine I was told it was an over the counter exchange warranty. No cost about shipping or anything else was brought up. That's one of the reasons I bought it. I was also warned that this might take place, but there shouldn't be a charge. What say you? Cause my favorite light rod exploded...

MIKE TREMONT

Another more complicated choice is to lower the bass in a crate to decompress them...I dont see a tournament angler doing this, but maybe the weigh in officals could. Tournament officials shouldn't have to do this if the anglers took care of their catch. If the fish are getting to the scales and ne...

MIKE TREMONT

The baitshop down the street from me sells a nylon coated net in a couple different sizes. Don't know the name of it off the top of my head. There's a night and day difference when your using trebles. I can swing by later and get you the name, if nobody beats me to it. I think those rubber nets are ...

MIKE TREMONT

I got ran out of there about 5 years ago. Up until that time I could always get a limit off the docks. I think this law stinks, but I didn't threaten violence. I did have a good conversation with the guy(don't know his name) and he explained their position. Most of it was the usual, damage/injury do...

MIKE TREMONT

No matter how you fizz them, just do it and do it shortly after you catch them. That's only if you have to keep them for a weigh in. If you're fun fishing, let them go immediately.

What are you guys fishing that deep for right now?

MIKE TREMONT

I think that there would be more entries if it did not fall on the same day as the final A/C Pro-Am at Clear Lake...

I think a lot of guys will be glad knowing they ain't competing for prizes with some of those guys.

MIKE TREMONT

I'm trying, but at the rate things are going it's iffy.

Anyone have any side work? Really don't care what it is at this point.

MIKE TREMONT

Way to make an Major Adjustment on day two BrothA Guyle from the Front of the boat after Day 1 !!

+2-Nice move Guyle

Sure did look like fun out there for everyone.

MIKE TREMONT

Nice!

C'mon Top Nut, I had a side bet!

MIKE TREMONT

Thanks to everyone that showed up to help out. I know a couple of you guys drove a bit and had other engagements as well. I know the kids appreciated it, from what I saw! Worked out perfect with all the kids getting a boat ride and one spare broken boat in reserves. I'm just one of the volunteers an...

MIKE TREMONT

We'll make it work, with this rain we may have a number of kids that won't make it. I'll have my boat if we need it. There are a number of tourneys and some of the bigger ones coming up. Lot of competition for a few boats. On the bright side this weather should keep the hatch of lake lice to a minim...

MIKE TREMONT

Nice teaser

I'm fresh out of reading material.

Not to start a riot, do they look like they're gonna be delivered to homes on time?

MIKE TREMONT

I watched the video from your site. Bait looks great.

I almost went to the order page, but realized I'm still out of work with no real leads at this time and my lower unit is still broken, so...

My wife would be proud I showed such restraint

!

Good luck I hope you do well!

MIKE TREMONT

Any of you ever use their Bad Azz dye? I was at FW a couple of weeks ago and they were out of chartreuse Dip N Dye (surprise), so I bought this Bas Azz stuff thinking it would work the same. Any pointers would be appreciated. I usually just dip a tail in the dye, but this dye's applicator doesn't al...

MIKE TREMONT

I hope I'm not out of line or stepping on anyone's toes. I want to add a little sense of urgency here. We have 40 kids that we are going to take fishing. Last I heard(last week) we only had 14 boats. That leaves a lot of kids on the bank. The state has waived the entrance/lake fee for those of us he...

MIKE TREMONT

Got to love these threads. It also has to be something in the water in Modesto :twisted: ! IMHO ratting people out is a jailhouse mentality that needs to stay behind concrete walls. The rules are there for ALL of us to follow, when we do a tournament we sign on the bottom line that we will follow th...

MIKE TREMONT

I was trying to make it, but my babysitter was busy. I didn't think I should bring a 3 year old. From what I read at http://www.calsport.org/4-28-09.htm it sounds like like it was a win for the fishery. I am concerned, but not surprised at the politicians that approved the amended bill to conduct fu...

MIKE TREMONT

Mike I don't know you, but people like you give me faith in some of mankind. I don't think many would of made that post.

Good luck.

MIKE TREMONT

A team up here got DQed for the same thing a couple months ago on Berryessa. I believe they would of won the event. Sometimes the euphoria of doing real well blocks the sense's a little bit? I hear it at every tournament I fish, "life vest must remain on and buckled while the big motor is runni...

MIKE TREMONT

Thanks Dan.

Sorry to read you found that the hard way.

Don't know how many times I must of just missed that. Knowing my luck lately, now I'll hit it for sure!

MIKE TREMONT

Dynamite :shock: Was up there last week. I've only fished the lake once before and that was 10 years ago. It was tough for me. My friend caught lots of dinks on some cranks. I was trying to catch those suspended fish your talking about. The only thing I didn't try that has been mentioned is the Kast...

MIKE TREMONT

I've seen guys with those big garden sprayers on their boats in the past and had no idea what they were using it for.

Learned something new here again, thx WB!

I don't think it should be legal in a tourney though. Got to play the hand your dealt, IMHO.

MIKE TREMONT

I had a number of issues back in 2001 when mine was new. It took awhile but they were all worked out. In 2001 there was a recall and the fuel rails, thermostats and computers were replaced. I still have the steel reeds and try and throttle as evenly as possible while decelerating. If they go and sca...

MIKE TREMONT

Congratulations Scott and Adam. I was hoping you could of done a little better than that

, heck you weighed about the same on New years a couple years back!

Ain't a dink lake when you know how to catch em like these guys.

Wish I could of been out there to help hold up the bottom!

MIKE TREMONT

I went KYB heavy duty as well on my Expedition. I also added a leveling kit for the rear. What a difference.

Now what does that have to do with Toyota's and your 2 choices?

Just thought it might help someone out.

MIKE TREMONT

Guarantee me some safe parking and I'm in, otherwise I'll just be face in the crowd. If anyone has contact with the folks circulating the online petition. There are some instructions to simply ignore the fund raising portion of the sign up sheet. I couldn't figure out how to get past it. Just a head...

MIKE TREMONT

And that is the biggest problem and just a cop-out by the differant orgs out there. When is the last time you actually saw a boat on anchor in a tournament? The problems are caused because most TD's are afraid if they take a stand people will stop signing up. It is also up to us to enforce these ru...

MIKE TREMONT

Sent you a PM Bryan

MIKE TREMONT

Just curious, do you know if this guy is from the Clear Lake area? Seems as if something like this were going to happen, CL is fitting. Sorry to read about this and I hope that maybe somebody knows this guy and puts a little pressure on him to do the right thing and pay up. I can't wait to read some...

MIKE TREMONT

I'm thinking about moving to Texas, everything is bigger in Texas, right? Sorry Doug. I really wish I had answer for you. I've never really been that successful at this tournament stuff. The few times I was, I was really in tune with the fish and had a few key spots to keep running back and fourth t...

MIKE TREMONT

I wanted to start a thread with the same question, I'm glad you beat me to it. In short YES I have a number of friends that would agree. Don't know if they'll chime up, but we've shared some tears :lol: . I don't know what I'm doing wrong, not on the cutting edge I guess. Guys are still getting on t...

MIKE TREMONT

If my memory serves me right, it says on the label that it is not recommended for 2 strokes. I wanted to use it as well. I was at Wally's a few weeks ago and they had some of the same type stuff made for Lucas, for a dollar a bottle. I was wondering if it was alright to use. Looks and just about sme...

MIKE TREMONT

I wasn't going to chime in but... First to anyone that thinks I'm slamming Vince please READ ALL of my words. Vince is a great promoter and is doing an outstanding job when it comes to getting the numbers of sponsors and anglers participating. With taking on that role where he reaps the awards, he i...

MIKE TREMONT

Well I didn't get screwed this weekend, but I did get nailed. Thanks for reminding me I have to fix that. Probably someone in a hurry reaching for a rod or something in their work truck and knocked a box of screws over. I guess they didn't hear them hit the ground :?: Could be a hard up tire salesma...

MIKE TREMONT

Thanks for all the PM's.

I wanted to bring this back on the front page cause I know many of you were out this weekend.

MIKE TREMONT

Just a different angle for you all that don't like the fact that there isn't enough good info here. A lot of poachers visit sites such as this and go out and rape the resource. Last thing I want to do is give them any kind of a head start. Cause you won't be catching those fish for long. There is lo...

MIKE TREMONT

I just found some on ebay. They have a 3 year no fault warranty. Mercury only has one year. They are 75% less than a rebuilt from Mercury. Seems to good to be true so I'm really skeptical, but considering my economic unemployed reality, it has my attention. For those that don't know my background, I...

MIKE TREMONT

Welcome Ian!

Congrats Mom and Dad!

MIKE TREMONT

A couple of weeks ago I had an encounter with some fellow tourney anglers. Me and my friend were parked on the bank, casting out to a SMALL rock pile. We had been parked there for around 15 minutes and gonna finish up the day there. I'm sure you can see what's coming. Some fellow competitors come in...

MIKE TREMONT

Makes too much sense. The fishing would improve over time.

Ain't gonna happen.

MIKE TREMONT

What about all of the good folks the cut our fuel consumption way down. It was very helpful in a number of ways, lowering demand helps keep the price down (yea right), we also don't have to bow to the oil producing countries as much, to name a few. It is what they(government) is preaching, isn't it?...

MIKE TREMONT

If the wind permits you can keep me on the list Bob. I sent you an email about losing my lower unit. If it's safe and you need me that morning I'll have the boat, it's all going to depend on the wind.

I can fish those rock piles just outside the the buoys.

See you Sunday.

MIKE TREMONT

I have heard they are made by johnson controls. But I have heard they are made by Interstate to. JCI (Johnson Controls) makes the Interstate. I'm not going to go into my usual I love Interstate rants as I have in the past. I'll let batteryandy do that, as it appears he has a vested interest in them...

MIKE TREMONT

Glad to here things are looking up Guy. I'm still sliding down hill. If you've been checking in you've seen the latest. Hopefully I don't hit the bottom to hard.

I'd offer you a ride, but that's the latest bad news. You have any swim fins

?

MIKE TREMONT

The slight clunk I was getting when I put a load on the engine was my lower unit.

MIKE TREMONT

Folsom is FOUL!

If you do that boiling thing I would pull the batts out of your boat. Sends acid all over the place. Hope it helps???

Little one on the way. Very cool!

MIKE TREMONT

Wondering where you went. Still in one piece I hope?
