Re: Hey Ya'll

Hey Tom, they're getting bigger at that little lake you and P.J. use to fish...A while back, a bass tried to steal a trout fisherman's catch right off his line, the live trout measured 14 inches...How big do you you think that one was?...You could have put a saddle on that fish!...Scary!!!...Hope Mi...

Delta shad report....

Just got off the phone with a former commercial shad fisherman from Stockton, and he said the shops there had large shad a few times this week...That means they're still spawning during the morning hours and running 4 to 5 inches or so... The Pros back East have really been keying in on the threadfi...

Re: any help?????c'mon you delta trats

If you want to have fun, throw the frog on matted material...I was out Tuesday and they were in the thickest stuff...Many couldn't break through that "cheese" to get it...Sure was fun watching them play with it though...Hook-up ratio was lousy... I use to clam up by Tower Park and they wer...

Re: Brainstorming for tommorow?

If you fish Holland, throw your frog in the "Cheese"...I was out there Tuesday in my new kayak from West Marine and had a lot of fun watching them play volleyball with my frog...The middle of the day was really good...Had over 25 blow ups... Be careful with Sherman...The winds are tricky a...

Re: The rock dam in Rock Slough??..(Holland Tract)...Did you

Dang Xman, that might have been the 70's...They put that dam across Rock Slough and the fish just stacked up...Not many boats then...A 4 or a 5 was big then...It's been almost 20 years since we met Dee out at Holland that day...Quimby sure was good with the Fat-Rap... I found the last package of tho...

14 inch trout inhaled!!!!

Watched a monster bass try to take a 14 inch trout away from a bank fisherman out at Loma yesterday...The bass snatched it about 3 ft. away from the bank as three of us watched...Amazing!!!...He had it for around 4 seconds before it came loose in its mouth... The trout floated back up, no movement i...

Re: thumb tape?

Don't forget duct tape...If I'm digging clams on the delta, I tear off a 3 inch section and from there tear off half-inch sections and then start wrapping the fingers...It works great...The smaller sections give you the flexibility...If you need sensitivity, spacing the sections apart might work... ...

We had some great deerhunting trips with that camper...From the "Elbow" on Hwy 4 at Ebbetts Pass, to Rd. 6N58 off Hwy. 4, then Cabbage Patch, Matley Ridge, and White Pines Lake...Hey Xman, think "Kayak" !!!! No gas, no oil, and free launching anywhere you can find an open spot on...
