Re: New fisherman looking for help with a boat

You might try looking for at least a 20' boat if you're going to fish bigger lakes. Clear Lake can get mighty rough & conditions can get bad in a hurry. I think in your price range, the Ranger 520 VX's might be worth looking at. Very stable, good in rough water (probably one of the best rough wa...

Re: clearlake fishing?

Algae isn't that bad down south, just stay away from areas that are shallow & still. There are a lot of spots that are quite clear. Jigs & small bait Texas is working now & there's a good blade bite at dusk. I fish at night & if you do as well, PM me!

Wait a minute, I fish a few hours before dark sometimes! You should get into a good top water bite around June. I like using the Whopper Plopper to cover a lot of water.

I have an '03 203, if you fish big rough water like Clear Lake, where I keep mine, you can't go wrong with this model. My partner and I have been thru some gnarly, windy situations & this boat handles it extremely well. In other words it gets us home safe! The narrow beam probably helps the boat...

Re: Clear Lake lodging

The old Ferndale resort was bought out by Konocti Vista, ask them if they have room down there. They have their own ramp & it's a short boatride to Konocti Vista. It's is kinda Bates Motelish in a funky sort of way but it was always clean. I used to stay there when I was looking for a house.

Konocti Vista Indian Casino & Hotel may have deals as they are where most tounaments launch from. They also bought the old Ferndale Resort on the water that has it's own ramp. I'll bet they would cut you a deal there.

I prefer south. The water has been the cleanest in years! The spring bite was off the hook & the fall bite should be great as well. There's great structure in the south below the narrows that just beg, "throw a jig at me!" & Jones, Jago, & Konocti bays produce very well. I don'...
