Love my Tahoe... I'm sure you'd love it too. Great towing vehicle, and great cruiser for those other circumstances. Also not a bad camping platform for those times you need to crash in the rear.

It didn't get nuked... I just removed the sticky bit and it fell down a page or two. Since there hadn't been any more input and it seemed to have gotten about as much as it was going to get, it was time to make room.

Sack 'em up baby!!! Great job so far Chris!!!

Real feathers aren't going to work very well, I don't believe. Once they get wet, they compress and lose their shape, unless you've used something to waterproof and possibly stiffen them?

Roger

tunaman

The chickenlegs ain't so bad either, right John???

tunaman

They just work, without working you... here's the 9.04 I got today thanks to the Miller punch weight:

tunaman

Miller punch weight, Daiwa Steez punch rod, a day on the Delta, $$$ 9.04 Delta LMB - priceless! http://westernbass.com/forum/download/file.php?id=1722 http://westernbass.com/forum/download/file.php?id=1723 The Miller punch weight works perfectly as designed - no need for added cost of tungsten. The ...

Here's another with my fist inserted for reference

tunaman

Got this girl punching with the Miller punch weight on the Delta on Sunday.

tunaman

Daiwa Steez - awesome punch rod, does most of the work for you. Extremely pricey, but it is an incredible punch stick and I ended up buying two. Also, agreed with the Dobyns choice also - I've got one of those and they are awesome also. Jim Molton turned me on to both, and let me try both out after ...

Are you planning to host it again were ever Tuna ? Mobil bars are sort of neat, no what I mean :lol: Well, if it works out and we have a place to park the motorhome, then we'll be hosting some sort of get-together for sure! I suppose I'd prefer Don Pedro of all the Motherload lakes, but I'm not fam...

tunaman

Hope you had a good one Chuck, with many, many happy returns!

Roger

tunaman

Any guesses where tunaman was on Sunday??? :D http://www.tunaman.org/web/photos/Say_CHEESE.jpg I finally had a frog bite worthy of the time, and it was the best I've had since being up here. Many missed, of course, and many big swirls under the cheese when they were spooked, but I had several hookup...

tunaman

SO Guyle, what are you thinking for the Fall Nutcase??? Hubspinner called yesterday and suggested we do the Berrysessa Thanksgiving event again, and I think that was a great idea myself. However, it is typically up to the Top Nut to plan the subsequent event, so we're waiting to see what our reignin...

tunaman

I use them all the time when punching. Best tip is to watch the True Bass episode with Chris Raza that Wayne mentioned in an earlier thread - Chris explains and demonstrates it perfectly. Great innovation for sure. Roger [EDIT] Here's a link to Wayne's post - http://westernbass.com/forum/viewtopic.p...

tunaman

Actually, it's just SOOOO hard to find a good 'limber' these days!

Of course, Coochie was able to find one yesterday else his partner might have pushed him overboard! HAR!

Roger

tunaman

Now throw a Steez 2500 on there with 8 or 10# Power Pro braid and a 5 or 6# flourocarbon leader and a tungsten drop shot weight, and you'll be able to distinguish granite pebbles from agate, quartz, etc...!

Sounds like a sweet stick!

Roger

tunaman

Black Dog ROCKS! Should do well with these guys - keep 'em coming!

Roger

tunaman

Looks a bit like a cichlid... they're common aquarium fish, very hearty, and could have been released into the lake.

Roger

tunaman

What else is he going to be doing out there in B.F. Egypt?!?

Yeah - suckered you in for next year! HAR!!!

Good job to you two for a really good bag on a tough day for quality, at least for most.

Roger

tunaman

Well, it did, at least for the Pro Teen. Many frog fish were caught that day with the cloud cover that moved in... not sure how everyone is doing otherwise.

Roger

tunaman

Coochie's dock! HAR!

Roger

tunaman

Way to go guys! Black Dog rulez!

Roger

tunaman

Uhhh, Russo's! Give Lisa a call and ask about availability. They have power, so you should be good to go unless they're booked up.

Roger

tunaman

Good seeing you Scott, and you and Phil did great. Welcome to MY WATER! MUAHAHAHA!!!

Come back up and play again sometime soon.

Roger

tunaman

Thanks my brothers - that was sure a fun weekend, even with the lack of sleep! It is absolutely awesome watching the faces of the kids throughout the event, from sign-ups through weigh-in and awards. It is great that they can be exposed to the good side of bass fishing at that impressionable age, an...

tunaman

SOS... that has been the case since I first became involved, and initially I was blown away myself. I've since gotten over it and accept it as fact. It is a shame, as the US Open is IMHO one of the most grueling tests of angler's mettle, but for whatever reason the rest of the country seems to be ig...

tunaman

Awrite - screw you guys. :evil: Guy doesn't get it, as it was him that started this whole thing and if it wasn't for him, the event wouldn't have happened. He had a legit reason to pull out (won't disclose here), so screw everyone who thinks he should get it. As for me - Coochie jumped the gun on th...

tunaman

I'm SO very happy for him! He deserves it - he's such a stud stick. I wish I had been able to help him over the top the year I fished with him, as he was going for three in a row at that time. Unfortunately we couldn't get the last fish to fill the limit, and it probably cost him (as it was, I broug...

tunaman

All, Sorry for the delays, but the weekend was a blur with the Nutcase Happy Hour, Nutcase event, and the Pro Teen. Then the work week started and it has been non-stop. SO - the weekend kicked off on Friday with the Happy Hour. For those who chose not to show, or couldn't, you missed one of the best...

tunaman

Sorry for the delays folks, but the weekend was a blur and work has been busy! What a wonderful weekend - I'm really fortunate to have been involved once again with the CO Pro Teen event this year. Most don't know the work that goes into this event, so kudos to all who helped make this event yet ano...

tunaman

We're off... true to Nutcase form, several of us didn't get to sleep until 3:00 am, so this should be an interesting day. Good luck to all my fellow Nutcases - we'll post the results when it's all over!

Roger

tunaman

See y'all shortly - we're off and running!

Roger

tunaman

I'll have a big cooler, and a couple of stoves. We *May* have some brisket - this was ABSOLUTELY the best brisket ever!!! I'll also have redhots, and may pick up some snausages also, so if you decide to bring something grillable that would be great! I bet we're going to have some hungry anglers by t...

tunaman

According to my boater count, we're at 56 and still 10 short.

Anyone not signed up yet who is planning to attend???

Roger

tunaman

Cool - glad to have you guys Dave! Lose one, gain one... all good! See you tonght or in the morning.

Roger

tunaman

Well, Guy just sent some bad news and isn't going to be able to make it, so we're down on main carne... maybe think of something that can be grilled, or a bucket of chicken or something? Sorry GUY - we'll miss you!!! Good luck with your other responsibilities, and thanks for getting the ball rolling...

tunaman

Glad you're able to come out and play Lloyd! Haven't seen you all year, so it will be good to catch up.

Roger

tunaman

Shoot... pay your double-dues and weigh your four fish - EVERYONE knows ole Coochie can't catch 'em on derby day!!! HAR!

Roger

tunaman

AWESOME Scott! Bring it!!!

Roger

tunaman

Throwin' the jig???

When did he learn that??? Last time I kicked both your azzez with the Wadda, with Speedbump throwing the Brush Hawg!!! HAR!

Oh yeah, and those fish came from behind YOUR boat after you had already passed 'em up!

tunaman

Well, we've had a couple more Nutcases come out of the shadows to sign up - WHERE ARE THE REST?!?!?

C'mon guys and gals - SIGN UP!!! There are some email details that have been sent to the current list, so if you haven't signed up yet you're missing the details!

Roger

tunaman

C'mon folks - post it up!

tunaman

Well, I've got a couple of SEKRET baits I've been saving up, and I have one or two special fish just waiting to awe the crowd! Watch the hell out because IT'S ON!!! BRING IT!!!!!

Roger

tunaman

REST IN PEACE Harvey - may God bless you, your family, friends and loved ones in this time of sorrow.

Roger

tunaman

Danny Barker is out in Florida, so hopefully he will chime in with a good recommendation.

Roger

tunaman

OK folks - some have asked what to bring, and some have asked for a list of what others are bringing, so I created this post to track the contributions. Here is what I have so far, based on the comments posted from the entries: tunaman - sliced beef brisket, redhots and rolls; whatever assorted othe...

tunaman

Thanks Marty - I was just getting ready to start a thread so everyone can post and view the list of contributions, so those who don't already have a plan can figure out what might be missing. Watch that post and see what you think will fit.

Thanks!
Roger
