YES...there is a problem. If I had to bet..the one with the red in it has sulfied...you are getting a false high voltage and the charger says its ok. How old are your batteries and did you always charge them up right away? Sulfication starts in only a day or two and if you don't get on it...over tim...

scottsweet

Maybe....what are the capacity of your batteries? Couple things to consider... Try to use higher capacity batteries. Your standard leadcell deepcycle batteries have a capacity of about 700-800 amps. The AGMs can be from 750-900 depending on the brand. If you get the BIG Dual Pros, 1200 amps! Keep in...

scottsweet

Just curious...what was the water temp?

Thanks.

This video is very compelling. Albeit we don't pull quite the same load, BUT, we do travel when it is that hot if not hotter. I have pulled my Lance camper (3500 lbs) and my boat in the heat of the summer from Southern Cal to Oregon. I never had a overheating issue in any way. There is NO reason for...

Call me Ron....

Hi John, Here is my take so far. The Duramax/Allison is a proven combo and has been for years. Ford is now on its 3rd diesel engine in 5 years. The 6.0L I have was plaqued with problems, though mine has been fine. (2003 F350 Dually crew Cab King Ranch with 6L Diesel.) Personally, I really like the c...

Ok..Fred Hall is over, we all have our legs and feet back working again. I have to tell you, I like to people watch and there were two great stories.. First...this LARGE family, and I don't mean lots of people, come to the Basstrix/Blade Runner booth. Bruce, Rick and I look at this kid, about 7, and...

Hi all, I am pleased to announce that The Oakridge Inn in Ojai near Lake Casitas has agreed to sponsor us for the upcoming tournament on March 25th. For those who are interested in staying near the lake on the evening of March 24th, please contact Scott at (805) 649-4018 and tell him you are fishing...

I will be staying up there Sat eve....WON BASS baby!

scottsweet

HMM...I believe it was YOU who was afraid to run that Triton fast..and umm..well..you still should be...it is a Triton with a little to the left and little to the right..and hope for the middle. As for hairspray...I don't use any..never have. Listen young man...I am runnin my Ranger thar boat thar a...

scottsweet

Thanks Jimmy! You fished with my buddy at the US Open last year, Dan Ingraham. I will be at the Delta and look you up.

Thanks!

Scott

scottsweet

Hmm...maybe its because you are going slower than 35?!

scottsweet

The comments are interesting....but it seems that blaming the high rollers is not the real answer to why people are breaking off motors. As Ron mentioned, driving slower when those conditions exist seem to prevent this problem? Preventive maintenance seems to be key as this eliminates the chance of ...

scottsweet

Toast...he already is! You know, I heard at the last WON Bass Pro/AM tourney that Lance was with other men. I talked to Tracy and she wasn't worried....HMMM!

Lance does like them fully loaded you know....he even said so!

scottsweet

Hey all,

What's the deal with this year...motors breaking off at the brackets? I have heard so many stories this year.

Since I am not the expert on this, can someone post WHY this problem is happening and what we boaters can/should do to prevent it?

Thanks!

scottsweet

Rick,

You really need to take Lance in the back and teach him a lesson or two....

If you work him up one side and I take the other, maybe...just maybe, he will buy a Ranger

scottsweet

Hi Kent,

I will be at the Delta for the WonBASS Pro/Am. You gonna be there?

Scott

scottsweet

Oops...yes! I knew I had it named wrong....but couldn't remember.

Thanks!

scottsweet

Anyone know how people like the new Sea Star power steering?

Thanks.

scottsweet

Hi all,

I was curious what people's experience have been with the new 250 Pro XS? What is the mileage like? How does it compare to the Verado?

Thanks!

scottsweet

I have the very same situation that you have. You might consider getting a very cool charging system... Stealth Chargers allow you to charge all your batteries while you are running the motor AND off of a solar panel. I plug my solar panel in to the main battery whenever I park the boat and then the...

scottsweet

So glad to hear you are feeling better....Pat Howard and Hutch have kept me up to date ...rest and feel better!

scottsweet

Thanks and yes we did...we are like fish...we travel in packs (or schools if you prefer), surround the bait and GET EM.

scottsweet

I want to thank J.J. Gibbs and Rick Francis for a terrific weekend on the water. It was the first time for me to be up in the river in those places that few can go. Those aluminum boats can sure get you in places I would NEVER go with my boat! Both of them knew these areas very well and we knocked e...

scottsweet

Thanks. It was definitely better than a week ago..many more limits. I was very lucky and had 2 great guys who knew the waters.

scottsweet

Ok..I am home, slept and ready to take on the world...well sort of .. Most of you guys don't know Gary Ryon, but he is in our club and we have been travel partners for WON South. I convinced him to travel with me this year for WON. I took him fishing 3+ years ago where he caught his very first bass....

scottsweet

I am there...

scottsweet

Huh?

scottsweet

Hi all,

I have a room for the Delta tourney and looking for a travel partner from the San Fernando Valley area.

If you are interested, contact me here or at 818-448-3366.

Thanks!

Scott

scottsweet

I am in...and I have my secret bait for my secret place on my secret boat with my secret Pro.

All these things must align properly to catch little green fish!

scottsweet

Shaun's the man....he's gonna kick some butt...I can feel it!

Yea baby!

GEE....there is a big spread between Lance's choices and um...well...tiny bubbles

...goodness..I can't stand bubbles

The 70s and 80s live on

Lance...I thought you said "music"....the list you have isn't "music"...but "noise"

Nah...it just means that you aren't old enough yet. As my father used to say to me...when you get older you....

scottsweet

What a great day...and meeting as you said, Mr. Dodger. When I was a true blue Dodger fan, you knew things were going to be good with Tommy at the helm. He created excitement and the one time I met him, I had the same feeling as you. He had a big smile on his face and greeted everyone with excitemen...

Hi all,

I have found that the download only has about 18 minutes of the show...

Is the archive ok??

scottsweet

If you are in Northern Cal...check out Clearlake Bait and Tackle and Tackle It. Also, Gene has them at Hook Line N Sinker.

And yes...it does!

scottsweet

I have a buddy looking for a pro who is signing up for the WON BASS Havasu tourney...anyone looking for a AAAer?

Thanks.

Hi Hydro,

I don't know where you live...but Anglers Marine and J&T Tackle carry the Cari Rattles in LA.

If you have any questions, drop me a line.

scottsweet

I and a few other fellow club members will be there too....this is one of the greatest events of the year! Don't miss it.

scottsweet

I want to ride in the your Triton to see if it is a boat that catches bass or catfish

.

Rangers are the best...unless of course you are Lance...then well..Tritons are the best for boating.

X2 looks nice...for a Triton.

Ride em ride em ride em.....away...Go Ranger

scottsweet

Hollywood,

I have a Merc on my Ranger...and I wouldn't get a Evinrude. I know someone who has blown an Evinrude up 4 times in 3 years! Given that there is really no one in Socal to service Evinrude, Merc is the motor.

Service and reliability...thats all you need....

scottsweet

Mike,

You can count West Valley Bassmasters in to help out with trucks and boats.

scottsweet

Fishy got your tail..fishy got your tail....na na na na na na ...

scottsweet

You know...Lance can't get em too good...or he will scratch his new rods...or worse...his reels. They need to stay pretty!
