Check out some of the Daiichi hooks... been using for years and never had a problem with bending or breaking. I use both the drop shot and octopus with no fails... been very pleased with them.. sharp and strong.. get the job done. Drop Shot hooks http://www.ttiblakemore.com/product-category/daiichi/...

I think 27+ won it and there were over 130 boats

Not sure if this is still used as a rental, but if so it's worth the look to see if they are open dates you are looking for. It's a house that sits in it's own lagoon just around the corner from the casino. I stayed there twice for events and it's perfect.. here is contact info from the ad: http://w...

Yes to all others info... tough, cold water, debris and overall muddy water. I was out last Sunday for a few hours just to get out.. even after seeing the ABA weights I decided to go... Water temp 48.9-51.2 Launched at Paradise and went down Bishop.. water color was actually better than I expected.....

I have been using the Nanofil for years now and love it. As stated, it does tend to fray a little with the little hairs, but I have used it on one of my spools for over 2 years now with frays and have not had 1 single break off. When brand new it has some memory so I would recommend casing something...

Randy Walker

WOW!
That hands down is the lowest weights on the Dirty D that I have EVER witnessed. I feel like I'm being punk'd looking at these results.. haha... crazy!

Randy Walker

+1 for 1800BB... good coverage, rates and designed by 2 tournament anglers. No prop coverage of course... Ax for service, I have been with them since 2007... less than 2 months after going with them (ACE insurance) I hit wood on the Delta and blew the lower unit. They replaced it with no questions. ...

Randy Walker

Cool.. thanks much for the info.. much appreciated!

Randy Walker

Thanks much for the info.. heard from a buddy a while ago that it was tough and no vis with horrible wood at Granite Bay.. just like you said. Was Browns good to launch at though? wood and dock wise? with lake dropping is there dock concerns? I'd be solo so need to be able to tie off.. don't mind a ...

Regardless of insurance carriers, they can all have changes from year to year in regards to guidelines and appetite. I was an agent/broker for over 5 years and wrote with over 30 carriers and it was tough to keep up on all the changes. I am now a commercial underwriter with a large insurance carrier...

Randy Walker

Anybody have the number to the shack/office at the Granite Bay (Folsom) launch? Want to give a call to see conditions before making the drive.

Thanks much,
Randy

Randy Walker

Just an FYI... for anybody fishing the event tomorrow and was planning on launching at B&W, they said that you can launch at low tide but at high tide the water is going into the parking lot and rap in under water, so they said it could be tough to get your boat back on the trailer. 2 Coast Guar...

I have one that is doing that now.. gen 1 STX... buddy had same thing and Fisherman's Warehouse could not fix it so they sent to Abu and they said they could not fix it.. so they gave my buddy a new gen 3 for like $130 bucks or so.. Not sure why Abu could not fix it... that was about 6 months ago......

61 boats I think and 9.26 won it.. 9.23 took 2nd... It was a tough bite out there..

Randy Walker

Hey Andy,
Looks like via your last post things are looking up. Does this mean there are enough right now to where the event is going to roll on for Sunday or is that still to be determined?

Thanks,
Randy

Randy Walker

Hey Nate50, You should be getting more than 2 years out of the optima. I've been using for years and have a buddy that got over 4 years out of his Blue tops and he fishes much more than the average guy. What is your amp per bank on your charger? Is it a 10 amp or 15? If 10 amp per bank then that's g...

Randy Walker

Just use a set on my buddies new boat last night.. Worked like a dream. $69 at Harbor Freight... Might be better choices out there...bottom line is the work and make it so much easier..

Randy Walker

Anybody have a cheap 12v trolling motor for sale? Know someone looking for a hand op motor for his kayak so trying to help him out.

Thanks

Randy

Randy Walker

Agree with the other 2 replies... Go out and throw them for sure... There are great brands on the market. I prefer the Persuader in several styles because they get up on top of the water quick, you can move them pretty slow if desired and they last a long time. Play with speed retreives... What work...

Randy Walker

You interested in trading for anything? Looking for anything? Figure I'd ask..

Randy

Without a doubt... Wool gloves. They have them like the photo shown...mitten style that flip back to half fingers. The thumb has a slit as well... Super warm even when soaking wet.. Been using them for year and I have tried many types.. The wool is excellent.

Good luck

Since it came off a Yamaha, do you know how much it would cost for hub kit to go onto a
Yamaha 250?

Does it need any work at all...

Thanks
Randy

Randy Walker

Sounds like there are a few of those up there right now. Buddy said there's one up the river past the first left turn that is inches under the surface, so boat can even hit before motor. Think he's calling to see if someone can go mark it.. Dangerous up there right now...

Randy Walker

Hey Jesse, I've been using Optima Blue tops for about 5 years now and love them! No maintenance.. It's really nice to not have to add water.. 100% sealed, fast charge times, long running time.. I have a 101 minnkota and there have been days that I have fished multiple days on the Delta in the weeds,...

Randy Walker

I used Tru Pitch for years but I think Gary sold the business. I tried calling with no reply then did a web search and called another number and was told by someone, that they don't do direct prop work and I would need to go through a dealership now. If anybody has used the new owner of Tru Pitch re...

Randy Walker

There are two major changes to the hook events based on the first event, which I don't think is going to change. Entry: $70 entry with 2 $15 options now.. All in is $100 Limit: Changed from 7 fish to 5 fish limit. Done to allow an angler that needed to fish alone that event for some reason to still ...

The R2S trailer will be there as usual correct selling product correct? Will it be at Russo's Friday?

Hey All, I have just 1 male Brittany puppy left for sale. AKC Reg, champion blood lines, the tail, dews, & 2nd shots are done. He is ready and would make an excellent addition to a family. $500 If you or anybody you know are interested in an awesome breed for a family pet or for a hunting/bird d...

Check out the Abu Garcia Rexo SX. It's light, small, well priced and has 20 lbs of drag. There are several other reels in the Abu line up that you may want to check out as well.

Not tried the one that Mr Kopp uses, do do use the Columbia one and hands down cooler than a standard buff material .. The omni freeze zero is much better in warm/hot weather

Randy

Randy Walker

Hey Whazup, Yep... There are normal front pockets, 1 zipping rear pocket on the right side which all are mesh inside. There's also a small pliers type pocket down below the rear pocket.. Kind of like a slim pocket found in carpenter pants/jeans. Stitching seems to be decent everywhere, but just arri...

Hey Jared, I just got two pairs of Columbia pants (UPF 50) that are really light weight and zip down to shorts if desired, which I doubt I will do because it defeats the purpose of my purchase... But I think it will be nice to un zip at the knee partially to let a breeze in perhaps?? I got the pants...

Randy Walker

I have used a Minnkota 4 bank charger for 7.5 years and with Optima Blue Tops for the last 4 + years when no problems at all. Regardless of charger brand. as Jared stated its highly recommended to use a 10 amp per bank charger for the Blue Tops. Using a higher amp charger could void the warranty and...

I started using the clothing about 1.5 years ago and love it. UV sun shirt - several brands to chose from Simms sun gloves - only half fingers exposed Head/neck wear - Simms full head sometimes and the Columbia Freezer Zero Gaiter (cooler than buffs) not found a good pants yet... So still using sun ...

Randy Walker

Hey Jon, I doubt you will get a reply on the exact percentage, but who knows. I can tell you by doing the math based on payout info, it's not 100% payback so if that is what you were hoping for than it sounds like it's not going to be an event you will want to take part in. If your looking for a fun...

Check out the Ardent smart cull... Comes with 6 culling balls that are both colored and with a built in number/weight keeping system. U can even write numbers on the balls to make a 3rd way to track weights... Which means u can use any scale regardless of how that scale tracks/saves weights... They ...
