This is the new way that people act , it's worse on weekends and it's worse from tournament guys . For me , I mention something to them initially , in a somewhat nice way , then I wait for how they respond , if they respond with a "negative " comment to encroaching on water I am fishing it...

I am conservative , been a little busy working , taking care of family life . Trump has nothing to do with this , I agree that he probably has no clue about the Delta . Brown on the other hand , is a completely worthless and crooked politician . His dad was the same . The underhanded deals done rega...

1) Whats the chance these two losers pay the fines ? = ZERO 2) Whats the chance these two losers will do this again = 100% 3) Whats the chance these two losers were raised by two losers = 100% 4) What's the chance these two losers are getting paid entitlements from our taxes = 100% 5) Whats the chan...

I thought this blog was all about the Russians ---it's all there fault , and I am positive the Russians seriously influenced Mercury 's reply to Oldschool . We should all call Mercury and find out who in there customer service is a Russian spy and have them removed !!!

the old chargers used to be " analog" based and could end up overcharging a battery ---which shortens the life of the battery . Most of the newer units are "digital " designs and will not overcharge the batteries .
I bought one of the newer Dual units and it works fine .

darker is definitely hotter . Hanes has UPF 50 long sleeve white sun shirts online for $15 each .
I usually buy three at a time and could care less if they get stained .

I am sorry to hear this , especially because it's melanoma . I am 55 and have had so many "burn " procedures and other chemical skin procedures I cant even think about it , including MOHS surgery . I have spent countless hours researching ways to prevent skin cancer , best types of sunscre...

Good to know that Jeremy is the guy to have quality work done .
My question is for Stogieman , who did you buy your boat from originally ? I am hoping to avoid places like that !

Robb R

nice fish , good day .
You should sleep in more often !!

Mark, Cant speak for the effects of Roundup in the Delta , but I can say that Glyphosate , which is the main chemical used in Roundup is banned for use in Europe with GMO foods. Monsanto manufacturers 175million pounds of Glyphosate every year . In 1992 , our wonderful government allowed the broad u...

Robb R

Mark , you are correct , but I would say the real issue is === "the silent majority is never heard " . Look at the media , they spend all kinds of money and time making a small number of so called demonstrators look like a crowd of ten thousand and the stupid people of this country see tha...

Robb R

Michael , Totally agree ! Did you see how short the roots on those almond tree's were ? A really good friend of mine has a PHD is agriculture . That area were Resnick is growing Almond tress' is basically desert . It takes at least 20 TIMES the water to grow in those area's as it would in typically ...

Robb R

Basshack , The post of mine you highlighted was before the show aired . Whats your point . Look at all the posts , I was correct on my first comment regarding Resnick . Additionally , if you don't think the relationship between Government and Resnick going all the way back to Pat Brown is linked to ...

Robb R

Artie , everything you said is spot on and anybody that doesn't believe it is either paid by the Government in some way (either a paycheck for self or family and/or welfare recipient ) or , they are just completely stupid . The one thing you will never ever here from any Government group is " w...

I am really looking forward to this TV series . The name that should pop up frequently is , Stewart Resnick . He is a 77 year billionaire selling almonds and water . His dad was buddies with Pat Brown ( Snowflake Jerry Browns dad ) and they set up all kinds of crooked chit regarding water . Aside fr...

Robb R

Honestly , I think it's a good idea . How many times have you guys been on the water with totally clueless boaters , and in some case , they tend to be the drunk idiots . I fish a local lake in san Jose a lot , Calero Reservoir , really small lake . Once I saw a 21 foot wake board being dredged up a...

Lake Amador in Nor Cal also received Florida Strain bass back in the 70's , no idea if they were a pure strain . The lake record is over 17 lbs caught back in the 80's . I always felt that Amador , had a shot at a world record , mainly because it's a deep lake , tons of food types ( shad , bluegill ...

Sounds like the truth may finally get exposed. Will it fall on deaf ears? Probably The typical CA voter is very ignorant on issues and the majority just vote party line because they will give them the most freebies. I don't know how many times i've heard "the poor farmer" or "the pred...

Hi Paul , I wanted to reach out , my son used to know Officer Katherman from his association at Valley Christian High School . My son lives in Texas now and isn't able to contribute , but I am . I have some gear I can drop off to you at your work ( I Live in south san jose ) , Let me know a time thi...

Robb R

Brian , I understand your points . From my perspective being involved in international business for over 30 years , I get it . This nation is a disaster , Government spending has run amuck ---we are almost $20 Trillion in debt and it's growing by the millisecond . It's totally unsustainable . The on...

Robb R

Brian , First off , let me say I appreciate your service to our country . I think every child born , should spend time in our military right after high school ---helps them grow up and become responsible and helps mediate the vast numbers of parents that do a poor job . Regarding the way Trump talks...

Robb R

Mark, you crack me up . blaming one politician is crazy . Look at all levels of government , city , state and federal ---nothing but a bunch of worthless people wasting tax payer money . Whether you like Trump or not , he is the only person calling out government waste -----and guess what ----the es...

Robb R

it's kinda simple , Do you believe bigger Government is better ? Do you believe that you are getting "real " value for your state and local taxes ? Do you believe that Government has to many "chiefs " and not enough " Indians " ? Brown and his Democrat philosophy believ...

The San Jose Mercury News said in this mornings paper , that the "worlds dam " experts have determined that the cause of failure was due to " micro air bubbles " that tore apart the concrete . Claiming they create a power vortex against the concrete ripping it apart . I am no &qu...

water wars have been going on in forever in California . Whats amazing is how stupid Californians are for voting in the same bad politicians and expecting better results ---- "stupid is as stupid does" --Forest Gump

Robb R

to see how well it's working ?? Is that a joke ? Nothing against the people that worked on the Oroville project , but it wouldn't take a very sharp person to figure that the secondary spillway was not only designed poorly , but the idea that 250,000CFS across the secondary spillway would hold up is ...

Robb R

Gary , I appreciate you replies . Someday I will be in the market for a new boat and will certainly look at Rangers when that time comes , unfortunately , my fishing partner is my son and he moved down to Texas last year to pursue a career and chase bass . I don't get out as much as I would like to....

Robb R

Gary , In no way was my post targeting your support of others regarding buying a boat or whether a Ranger boat was a "good " product . Your reputation is nothing but exceptional . I am sure you and most others that have owned a high quality boat , such as Ranger , are satisfied customers. ...

Robb R

I am not an owner of either one of these boats , Do Ranger's have better resale's ? Yes . I would dig deeper , find out the actual difference in the manufacturing of the boats . Example , Skeeter uses aluminum deck lids vs wood or fiberglass . How about bottom hull structures , are they made with di...

this topic always brings up questions . I have gone to bearing buddies , the trailer place that installed then ( Orlandi Trailer ) . advised the only way to properly use bearing buddies is as follows . Once you arrived at the lake , take out a grease gun and " top off " the bearing buddy t...

Robb R

respect the office ? are you kidding me , the same office that created 25 minutes of Islamic worship every at the Whitehouse to satisfy Obama's agenda !!! The same office that conjured the lie about how and why 4 Americans were killed in Benghazi !! The same office where Bill Clinton screwed Monica ...

Robb R

trailer tires , regardless of how they look or how many miles are on them , if they are 4 to 5 years old , replace them . I had some tires that were just over 5 years old , both looked perfectly good on the outside but one looked really bad inside and was starting to "bubble " and separate .

Robb R

Are we talking about threadfin shad ? They are Plankton eaters ? Typically threadfin shad start dying off in mass just below 43F . If they can find deeper water that doesn't go below 43F , than the majority will survive . As for affecting bass , the worst scenario is to many shad , gives the bass pl...

Robb R

Larry ,
I appreciate your post , didn't see it as complaining , only giving a good reminder for all of us to be careful when driving our boats . Lord knows there are plenty of idiots driving boats , including bass boats .
Tight lines ,

Robb R

two issues can happen , unfortunately I have had both happen . The ones your showing look heat related , the air expanded in side the chambers and due to the plastic a little softer , also due to heat , the warped . Depending on the plastic thickness , some are worse than others . The other is leavi...

Robb R

What a bass , crazy size , I agree , give that fish another spawn season with some nice tasty trout and she pass 20+ easy . Larry , your comments on Amador bring back memories . I grew up learning to bass fish that lake starting back in the late seventies . I try to go back at least once a year . I ...

all of them are bottom feeders !! the tunnel is another democrat boon doggle to make a few people rich at the expense of taxpayers , add proposition 53 ----our great leader Gov Brown is asking ----or telling voters to say No to prop 53 so they can pass programs over $2Billion with out voter approval...

Robb R

I used Crigs quite a bit , for some reason the "dead" look of a crigged Robo is crazy effective . I take an old pool "noodle " and cut it to length's of 12" . Then I pre -rig about 8 to 10 leaders using a variety of hook sizes , types and floro line . That way when I am re-t...

Robb R

Machadobass , I could not agree with you more . Been bass fishing 40+ years and I always spend extra time to make sure any bass I catch makes back into the water as unharmed as possible . I always felt that if I did that , I just might catch that fish again in 5 or 10 years and most likely , much bi...

Robb R

Mark , thanks for posting , this is classic big money and politics at it's worst . The Resnicks , or should I say the "Wonderful Company " are really the only big benefactors to the Delta tunnels . It gives them an opportunity to farm desert lands with huge amounts of water for practically...

Robb R

Jimmy G , Help me understand , you have nothing bad to say about a billionaire using his power , influence and life long connections to seriously influence our leaders in Sacramento over billions of dollars of taxpayer money on multiple projects so that he can personally gain unthinkable profits ? T...

Robb R

The Resnick family are closely connected to Governer Browns family , going all the way back to the current Governers father . Review all the detailed information available online and you'll see how this man literally gets water sold to him and very low rates from our government in tremendous amounts...

Robb R

Here is a thought , if these guys are spraying , and the area's they are spraying are specific to permits , then someone should be taking pictures to make sure they are doing it legally . Catch these people breaking the law and then see how fast you can bring down the legal system and fines . Second...

Robb R

can you guys wait for the next post , I am running out of popcorn !!!!! I believe global warming as much as I believe Hillary doesn't lie and that Bill did not have sex with Monica. As for the fish in Clear Lake , it's probably a combination of multiple scenarios , low oxygen , weed abatement and we...

I installed a Helix 7 about 5 months ago . I am not a tournament fisherman and was replacing a 10+ year old hummingbird unit . I went with putting the new unit up front with the trolling motor , so I opted for a Di with GPS . For my uses , I love the unit . It takes time to use all the new features ...

It's so true , use it or lose it . Only the squeaky wheel gets greased and the silent majority never wins . If these were Salmon dying in the Delta , PETA would have people marching the State Capitol and Gavin Newsom would stand up and call out the suspects for a moral infraction . How did our State...

Interesting articles for sure , I have read the same magazines and always end up thinking about what works for on certain months and what doesn't . one of my best techniques during the winter , find a ledge or rock pile at a depth your marking fish( for me 25-35ft) , and throw a weightless 5" o...

I find this website very helpful , not just the fishing , lures , lines , rods/reels etc... but also the info for boats , classified's , lake reports etc.. My son moved to Frisco , Texas late last year (close to Dallas) , he turned me onto a website down there , texasfishingforums.com It's interesti...

not recommending any particular brand , but some comments to see if anybody has heard the same . Never keep tires longer than 5 years regardless of how many miles are on them ? Always keep your tries inflated to max pressure rated on the tires ---keeps the sidewall from flexing therefore heating up ...
