They are 5' long and are available in a numberous colors. Here is the Tackle Warehouse desription: Reaction Innovation's creativity has once again developed a bait that will put fish in the boat when others won't. The Skinny Dipper is a soft plastic bait that can be effective in and around all types...

Do you have them in 301 or 222.
Thanks Mike

EverStart Maxx 29 (875 Cranking / 675 Cold / 125 Amp Hours) batteries from WalMart are all I have used in my 1988 Ranger 373 with a 1988 Yamaha Pro V 150. I put the charger on them when I get home from a day on the water and they last 4 to 5 years. The set that I currently have are from 06/07. I for...

Gene has the Feb 13th and AOY results posted on the Hook website.
The TOC Qualifers are not posted yet as he has to do some calculations with each teams best five tournaments.

Thank You Gene for results so quickly and for another great season.

WackySenko

Per Gene:
The TOC qualifiers will be posted on hookproshop.com by Monday Feb.21.
He has to recheck everything. The YTD standings will probably be posted the same time as the TOC qualifiers. Better to be right than have to explain a change.

offduty has the BEST solution that I have ever heard. The only downside that I see is what about the drugs that are in these guys, will it hurt the fish? Right now, for me, the fishing is SLOW in the Delta and the drugs might make the fish s l o w e r.

WackySenko

Pete, Thank You

WackySenko

I use the Palomar knot with an over hand knot on the tag end before I cut it off.

WackySenko

Gene,
The only updates that I see are the results of Sundays, no year to date update yet.
Great tournament, as always, THANK YOU
Mike

WackySenko

I always unplug my trolling motor unless I am on the water.

WackySenko

If you fish the Delta, and have a patner, try the Hook Tournaments. February 6th and again on February 13th out of Russo's. Any questions, just go to Hook Line and Sinker on the web and click on tournaments.
Gene puts on a great tournament and has special stuff for fisherman under 16.

WackySenko

Call Ranger Boats and ask. They have helped me in the past with all types of questions for my 1988 373V

WackySenko

To All:

When you are Pre-fishing one to two days before a tournament do you set the hook so that you can see the size of the fish or do you just go by feel and shake them off?

WackySenko

To All:

You change your fishing lines quite often. Where do you send or drop-off the old fishing line for recycling?

Michael Shreeve, Sr.

WackySenko

To All:

Do you use a swivel or a knot to tie braid to leader material? Which size swivel and which knot.

Michael Shreeve, Sr.

WackySenko

The Delta has been VERY tuff during this winter. What are the best strategies to help catch these confused fish? Please include size of components (line, weight and lure).

Thank You

Michael Shreeve, Sr.

WackySenko

I think that Gene said the cancelled December tournament is rescheduled for February 6th. Due to the Super Bowl, the same day, the weight-in will be at 2:00. This way you guys can get to your Super Bowl party. I hope that the bite is better.There will still be the regularly scheduled tournament the ...

WackySenko

I think the tournament had 47 boats. Only 10 teams weighed in fish. Of those teams only one team had a seven fish limit. Dropshotting was the best producer, drop it down, small shake one or two times and WAIT.

WackySenko

Merry Christmas to you and your family Gene. Thank you for everything that you do for us fisherman.

WackySenko

Well I did not get to try Bullards Bar before Thanksgiving due to snow. Thank you all for the info. I will go try it next year.

I am going to try Camanche this month. Last time I fished there was about eight years ago. Is one of the launch sites better than the other?
Thank you.

WackySenko

My brother installed one on his 1985 Bayliner bass Boat, by himself. He had to use an engine hoist and it was NO problem at all. Just follow the directions. Check around for the best price, he found price differences of up to $150.00. Putting this on your boat will make your life easier and be well ...

WackySenko

Does your 373 have a rod locker on the port side only or is there storage on the starboard as well? I am thinking of doing this to the 1988 373 that I have. I have a small front deck with a rod locker on the port side and an area that is raised about 2-1/2" from the floor on the starboard side.

WackySenko

If the seats are still available, I can pick them up any time you like.
My contact info: Mike at 925-565-8967 or Email at mashomestead@yahoo.com
Thank You

WackySenko

Congratulations to you and Michele !!!
Thank you for all that you do for us fisherman. The service from you and your staff at the Hook is the best.
THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS.

WackySenko

I will post a report on here as well as the report section when I return.

WackySenko

Next week I am going to fish New Bullards Bar fot the first time. Does it fish similar to Oroville? This time of year I am thinking that I will be doing alot of dropshottting and maybe some REALLY SLOW jerkbaits.
Thank you for any info

WackySenko

Thank you all for your response. I will be getting the HDS-5.

WackySenko

I am looking at getting an HDS-5, Christmas present from the wife. Which one would be better and why, the HDS-5, HDS-5x or HDS-5m. Any info is much appreciated. I fish the Delta, Clear Lake, Oroville, Shasta, Berryessa, Don Pedro and more.
Thank You

WackySenko

Thank you for all the info. I hope that I do not ever have to use it, but I now have a copy of it in the boat.
Thank You All

WackySenko

Just want to let everyone know to lockup your belongings . It appears that when I got home from the tournament yesterday, I forgot to lock my truck after I emptied the truck and boat. This morning I found the contents of my glove box and console on the seat. They did steal the battery jump box and t...

WackySenko

My brother got himself hooked by one of the barbs of a treble hook yesterday. Can anybody explain how it could have been removed with a piece of fishing line. I saw an article on this a couple years ago, but have not had to do it, THANK GOD.

WackySenko

Thank You all for the info. I will launch out of Rivers End on Thursday, the 11th, for my next trip to the Delta. I have never fished that far South before and fiqure that it is time I expand my areas.

WackySenko

Thanks Vince

WackySenko

I usually launch out of Russo's. I am thinking of launching at Rivers End for the first time. Any pros or cons about Rivers End? Do I have to worry about my truck and trailer? How much trouble getting to open water? Is there a better marina in that area?
Thank you for any info.

WackySenko

I took the post as letting us know that duck season is open. I did NOT take it as a put down on hunters. I know that during the hunting season I stay clear of the blinds, but during the off-season I blast across Franks without worring getting too close to the blinds.

WackySenko

Try Pat's Welding in Concord, 925-798-5389. He has done work for me in the past. He was mobile, does great work and prices were good.

WackySenko

Does anybody know of a boat salvage yard around the Delta area? I have a 1988 Ranger and would like to freshen it up some. I know that the one in Rancho Cordova is closed.

WackySenko

I wonder if it would work if FLW had a rule for when there are not enough Pros something along the following line. One week or so prior to the entry deadline date, CoAnglers on the wait list are put on a list in the order that they signedup. One list has Cos with boats and one list has Cos without b...

WackySenko

Opps. I know that somebody is going to nail me on 'balck bass' when it should have been black bass. SORRY

WackySenko

If the rule states: you can only have 5 fish and must immediately cull upon catching your 6th fish. Then that means YES you are cheating if you toss a sixth fish in the well and keep fishing. Even though you ARE going to cull later.

WackySenko

The closest I came was when I first started balck bass fishing and fished my second Redman in the Delta. At that point I was learning both bass fishing and the Delta, as a result I always let the boater have the front of the boat and select the waters to fish the whole day. At the end of the day we ...

WackySenko

Skeet IS AOY for the past two years and KVD is Angler of the Post Season for the past two years. in my opinion. BASS just has the titles wrong.

WackySenko

Do you try Ranger. I had to order one for my 1988 373V. They shippped it to me in about two weeks and it was around $50. It was a perfect fit.

WackySenko

I am looking at redoing mine also. I was thinking of using Trex, in place of lumber, and still wrapping it with carpet. I would think that the carpet would be the only thing that I would have to replace from that point on.

WackySenko

As of today FLW is Approved for:
Shasta 1/12 to 1/14
Shasta 1/15
Submitted and Pending for:
Delta 4/6 to 4/8
Delta 4/9

In a car the seat belt is bolted to metal. What would the seat belts be bolted to in a bass boat? As the operator of the boat I do not get bounced around as much as my passenger. Even with the handle between the passenger's legs he still bounces some times. I think that retrofitting a bass boat with...

WackySenko

Cooch is right about riding with Rick Kraft back in the 90s. It was about my 4th tournament (I had no time in a bass boat before tournaments) and it launched out of Big Break. We were boat #11. As we are idling around prior to blast off some of the guys would said we will pray for you Mike, hang-on....

WackySenko

When you have questions it is best to call the DT. Vince, 916-768-0938, will be glad to explain things.

WackySenko

fishnhunt21. That is the one. THANK YOU
