http://www.threeriversmarine.net/catalog/item/2521272/2140844.htm I'm in need of a new unit for the bow of my boat (puck will be mounted on the trolling motor). I'm replacing my X75, which gave up the ghost, and was thinking about the X96. Anybody have anything to say about this unit, good or bad? O...

Had the truck in for regular maintenance this morning at San Mateo Tire and Brake (great outfit that does all auto work, not just tires and brakes). I asked the guys there and they said you should read em cold and adjust the pressure based on that cold reading. Thanks to all who opined on this. - Wo...

And always check them when the tires are warm. I do it when I stop for breakfast on the way to the Delta.
Checking them at the house before you leave will give you an inaccurate reading.

Tony,
That 95 Ranger is still getting 50lbs of pressure in the trailer tires.

The screws that hold my console windshields come loose.
Any kind of LockTite or something else I can use to hold these guys in place?
Thanks,

If you are from Western PA you'll know that that's not a typo.

Gator,
I was looking a the Reports for the Delta and the recent January reports are all dated 2005.
That's wrong, right?

Great to see that you are going to be back in the saddle.
We've missed you.

Pure Fishing is the outfit that handles customer support for Fenwick and they are superb. I recently sent them a rod that I had for quite some time. I included a note that said I broke the rod. They replaced the rod with a brand new, latest model, for $9.95. The new rod retails for $109.95. The new ...

If you are looking for tackle deals then I don't think the Fred Hall show at the Cow Palace is for you. I couldn't find a white jig in any of the tackle shops (Hi's, Outdoor Pro, and Fisherman's Wharehouse have shops). There weren't many specials. But I did see a great demo by David Fritts and got t...

I'm not one of those old guys who wishes things were they way they used to be. I'm with Fred 'The Hammer' Williamson...'The only thing about the good old days is they're gone." But I am a traditionalist in most regards. At the seventh inning stretch of a baseball game we sing 'Take Me Out to th...

Wolfeman

Is there is or is there ain't going to be a Winter NutCase event?

There had been talk about Oroville in early Jan '06, but haven't seen any follow up.

Thanks,

Finally reached my life long fishing goal of being the Angler Of the Year. Who would have thought that I could win this without having a fish over 3.5lbs. all year.

Get his 'Time Well Wasted' CD and listen to the tune, 'Flowers'.

Line from the song,
"Stop the senseless killing, can't you hear those roses cry?
Tell me how many flowers have to die?"

Great song, great CD and a bass fisherman, too.

Good points Mr. Skeeter. If a guys is desperate WalMart will do the trick.
Jay has done me right several times, so I like to pimp for him.

Take care,
Wolfeman

Wolfeman

WalMart won't tell you what's working at Shasta, and they won't get you a great deal on a factory-rebuilt MinnKota 101, and they won't tell you the best way to fish a 6" Senko on the Delta, and they won't...well, you get it.

Hey Tony, how you doing? How's that new ride of yours? As for my Ranger, I was coming out of Brentwood Cafe and ran into Dee Thomas. He saw my Ranger and said it wasn't getting used enough. I think it was his way of saying that it looked too pretty. 8) It's running great, but like Dee said, it isn't...

I saw the new Powell rods that Gary D. designed at the Hook.
Anybody besides Gary using these rods yet? I totally trust Gary to give us the straight poop on the rods, I justed want to hear from somebody else, as well.
Thanks,

To Cooch and anyone else who wants to chime in. Last week you talked about a great tide. It was one that had lots of water in the system and a long slow tide change with minimal current. Tomorrow seems to be the opposite; zero tide in the morning (9:20AM at Orwood) with an incoming tide that will pe...

Wolfeman

They will keep sending more and more Delta water south (that's where the money and political clout lives). And the saline line in the Delta will keep moving further and futher west. That will bring about the end of our black bass and striper fishing. But look on the bright side...it will mean that w...

For those of you out there that have PalmOS based PDAs or any of the Treo smartphones, there's an app called TideTool that's pretty cool. It is freeware and can be downloaded at this site: http://www.toolworks.com/bilofsky/tidetool/ It has tide info for lots of places on the Delta: Orwood and Sand M...

Brentwood Cafe makes a decent breakfast.
The carnitas burritos at Jalisco are so good they'll make ya cry.
The cheesesteak at the new place near Balfour and Brentwood are pretty good after a long day on the water.

My rod repair guy closed up shop and I have a few rods that need some work, guide replacement mostly.
I need a recommendation. I live on the Penisula and don't really want to ship them.

Here's a link to an LA Times article about the Delta levees. I know this is isn't directly fishing related, but it sure is connected. Let the howling begin.

Gator,
The last weekend in December goes like this:
- Saturday Dec. 31st (New Year's Eve)
- Sunday Jan 1st (New Year's Day)

Not sure if that is going to get a really good turn out. Any chance we might push it out a week? Just asking.
Thanks,

This was my first time as a boater for the Rally, or any other NutCase event for that matter. In all the years that I was a non-boater I tried to give my boater some dough. Sometimes they took it other times they didn't. I'm not exactly sure who it was, I think it was DeWayne, that refused my offer ...

Wolfeman

I bought my boat used and it came with some paint smudges on it. Stokes of white paint that got there, I assume, when one of the previous owners ran into something white. (Hey, I never run into anything with that boat, so it wasn't me :-)) I mean I can park that thing in a boat slip like I was a cha...

Wolfeman

Connie, it was great seeing you and Killer again. Tell Tony that the Ranger he sold me is still running sweet, as Killer can probably attest to. Fishing with Killer was a hoot. He can go fishing with me anytime.
Have a safe trip back, and we all look forward to seeing you two next year.

Big tip of the fishing cap to Lee Gator Hines, Tony Stoltz, and the rest of the Westernbass crew for another great Rally. Big thanks and congrats to Bob Kornhouser for his excellent work as MC/Sponsor/Raffler, etc. and as new TopNut. Big, big thanks to all the sponsors, man they were generous as usu...

he is also, apparently, a good father. I had the good fortune to meet and talk with his son Gregory at the blastoff on Saturday morning, and I can tell you Gregory is one nice, polite young man.
So Greg can also be proud of the good job he is doing raising his son.

On Friday for the weigh-in, I also toured the Convention Center, were I got to talk to several great fisherman who didn't qualify, (Ken Cook, Jason Quinn, Denny Brauer). I went to the Saturday blastoff and spoke with Greg G., Aaron, Greg Hackney. It was such a thrill to be there, it was such a class...

watched the Jr. BM weigh-ins. He said it was very neat. Kittanning has a waterfront stadium-like setup and the whole weigh-in and awards ceremony was done right on the water (this is a beautiful stretch of the Alleghany river, and I can speak firsthand that there are largemouth to be had in this par...

for the link. I hope I get to talk to him. I'm hoping to make one of the weigh-ins. Why don't you sign up for the Rally and I'll tell you all about my trip to the Classic. Is Brianna going to fish the new women's Bassmaster tourney circuit? I did he she was 'giving lessons' to someone up at Clearlak...

Wolfeman

Does Greg Gutierrez have a website? I'm going back to PA and plan to make it down to check out the Classic. I don't know what Greg looks like so I was hoping to find a picture of him, in case I see him at the Classic. Got to support all the west coast guys.
Thanks,
