What part of the Delta has the most visibility right now? 2 weeks ago franks had about 1ft and mildred was a little better with about 2 1/2 ft. Last week big break was terrible with only about 6" of visibiity. This stable weather hopefully should have cleared the water up some. I want to take m...

I would like to get some input on comparing the Lew's Speed Spool Tournament Pro model tp1sh 7:1:1 vs the Shimano e7.
I already own some e7's and love them but how about the Lew's?

Jim Wilson

Happy Birthday Andy! I saw you yesterday looking for staging fish. Lots of big cruisers huh? I was in the blue Ranger with my son behind the guy in the white Triton you were talking to. 1 to 4lb fish are up. Son caught 7 bed fish there up to 4lbs. It's a hoot seeing him shake after catching a fish h...

Wow! Congrats to all and I would definitely agree that the fish are on the move.

Hows the fishing here? Just got a timeshare handed down to us at Snowlake Lodge for use in the spring and fall and was wondering what the fishing was like at those times of the year.

I caught up with Dewayne last Sunday at Konocti Vista. He was up fishing for the day and is supporting a new look. Bald, totally bald. He's pulling it off quite nicely though.

Dewayne, shoot me a pm. You left before we could talk more.

After years of fighting sinking frogs, I switched to Ish's Phat frog and have never looked back. They hit a home run with that product.

Jim Wilson

With the lake level being where it's at and reports of good fishing, I am taking my 7yr old son up Sunday and Monday. I know of plenty of areas to fish when the lake is 100ft down but I don't remember the last time I fished there at full pool. Besides throwing plastics and 5" senkos shallow, ne...

What about the Casino?

Jim Wilson

I tinkered with the idea back in 2000 when I found out there was going to be a Snag Proof frog tourney. Never used them in the tourney though. The've been working for 10 years now.

Jim Wilson

I am interested in the axle. I left you a voicemail this morning and will pm you.

That's who I ordered it from and they don't seem to know what I'm supposed to get either.

I have a 2007 519vs and am in the process of installing a passenger side console and have a few questions for Ranger boat owners of this year or one that uses the same console. Is there a trim piece that goes on the console itself between the glove box trim and the gunnel? I ordered a console from R...

Jim Wilson

I have a 07 single torsion axle Ranger trailer that is also suffering from negative camber on one side. Any recommendations on a trailer shop near SF Bay Area.

Jim Wilson

going out of Russo's tomorrow from 9-1 for some Striper action if anyone's interested.

I have a 07 519vs with a 200 Opti and love it. The size is perfect, it has a stable platform and the ride is smooth. Fast enough for me too. GPS was 70mph last time out. Altho I usually keep it around 3800rpm, it's good to know it has the giddy-up when needed. Last boat was 20.5ft and couldn't fit i...

Jim Wilson

The surprise ending was totally staged!

Jim Wilson

I just ordered a complete new hub kit from Ranger for $52 shipped that comes with the hub already on a new spindle filled with oil. All I have to do is put it on the axle.

Great deal.

Is there a Clear lake tournament scheduled for July 10 or 11?

Jim Wilson

I too miss those days Tony. Getting together for the first 3 Nutcase events, bbq's, friendships, that's what it was about. The information sharing was plentiful and welcome to guys like myself. Then the site started to get popular and with the popularity came critics and synics. At first, I believe ...

Jim Wilson

Hmmm...that's why I catch them where I catch them in Lil Mandeville. Thanks!

Jim Wilson

Saw lots of males on beds on the low tide Sun afternoon northwest corner of Franks. They were locked on and easy to catch but only around 2lbs. Like Cooch said, go shallow 1-3ft and look for openings in the weeds where you can see clamshells.

Jim

Jim Wilson · Re: Berkley AC/ WRL Delta Tournament on April 18 2010 When is the weigh-in?

When is the weigh-in?

Jim Wilson

Spoons are a good choice also, especially as winter nears. Either spoon metered fish or find a hole next to shallow water or even spoon where birds are working. I caught 2 spoon'n last Monday.

Good luck,
Jim Wilson

Jim Wilson

Going up in 2wks and was wondering. Last year this time it was pretty low, especially up north. So, compare it to last year. Thanks

Nevermind, profisha1 answered my Q back on Apr 22. " I do it alot, there is an annual carp shooting tournament at clear lake every year. This year it is May 30 and 31st, I believe, i might be off by one day but what ever that weekend is, Delta shoots great and normally has the largest overall, ...

Jim Wilson

Is there going to be a Carp Shoot at CL this year and if so when?

Jim

Jim Wilson

I'm for it since I typically don't wear mine. I also want them to get rid of the "5 pounds per bag rule", that one is flat out ridiculous.

Jim Wilson

It was about $200 cheaper just to buy new seats for my boat.

Jim Wilson

Nice memories. If I recall, the first nutcase classic started out as a post about a one bait tourney on the Delta to match faces with names. Look how far we have progressed. Every time I look at that plaque, it brings back those memories. I believe we split up Disco for the tourney. Anywhere but the...

Jim Wilson

While fishing the SnagProof, I lost the side plate to one of my Revo S reels. I guess the thumb screw that holds the side plate on unscrewed itself and when I made a cast, the side plate went flying off into the water. I called Abu Garcia and they told me one wouldn't be available until mid Sept. Do...

Question for the people that live at Clearlake. How's the air quality up there? I'm going to be up there this weekend to do a little froggin' and was wondering if you can still breathe with all the fires. I live in Brentwood and it's been pretty smokey here for a couple of days but nothing that woul...

Jim Wilson

Their replacement policy might have changed, but the last time I had to replace one, I brought it to Fishermans wherehouse and they gave me a new one for about 15 bucks. It would be a bummer if the policy had changed.

Jim Wilson

I have taken my 4 yr old son out of Orwood twice. We fished the openings of the two little cuts on the right as your going to Disco. I rigged him up with a green 5" senko and he caught his first fish all by himself the second time out. I got a video of it and got a kick out of seeing him reel i...

I am renting a house on the lake in July and was wondering if anyone has fished this pond. If so, any tips would be appreciated. Cooch, I noticed in the fishing reports you fished LOP some years back. Combie is real close to LOP. Have you been up there lately? Any tips for Combie in July? Thanks, Ji...

Just visited the auction site and good idea but, I have to ask, why have an option for an auction to last 60 days? A little long I think. I am not going to wait around 60 days wondering if I will win a $10 wacky rig tool w/100 "O"rings. 7 days max like ebay will be plenty.

Jim

Jim Wilson

It's not to late to go out today. I won't be leaving the house until 7:30. Call if interested. 922-354-1109

Jim

I'm going out tomorrow the 12th and would love the company. Launch out of Orwood around 8 and off around 4. Give me a call if interested.

Out of Holland around 8am. Call 925-354-1109

I saw them in Holland tract yesterday wondering the same thing.

Jim Wilson

I was also paired with a guy in a wheel chair on the delta. It was no problem at all. The only time I had to help was getting him in and out of the boat.

Jim Wilson

I had my trex deck replaced under warranty 4 months ago due to it rotting. Company said I originally had a bad batch.
