Yeah its kinda like having a boxing match without the current champion defending it.

However I will say this for ESPN they are very Consistant at not being Consistant....

My Guidewear was by far the best investment or purchase in 2005

I use to groan and dread fishing in the rain, now I dont even give it a second thought. Thanks for your recommendations on the Guidewear!

Kirk they are not the Lure Logic Spinnerbaits I am talking about the 50/50 blades those things are EXPENSIVE! Johnny G I havnt checked out the Peppers, Russ gave me a price to by the blades. To go directly through the manufacture you have to by a case and its like 400. $500. for a box OUCH! I am wit...

I cant imagine losing my father. My thoughts are with you and your family. Take Care.

So spill the beans! Who got 1-3 and what weights did it take? Wish I could have been there, but I had more important things this weekend. Like watching the Daytona 500 with my Father.

So whats the scoop?

ash

Way to go guys what a limit. A bit of overkill you only needed 20lbs

How great is that though a 37 lb limit.

ash

I am with you on that one Johnny G. I found the blades and they are EXPENSIVE!

Talk to Jamie one of his fishing partners makes an excellent spinnerbait!

ash

My only focus right now is to get my boat and some good electronics. After that a Certified scale will be in there. Too many trips like Gary Collins mentioned where you go to measure and the darn scale reads 00 or gives me three different readings for three different times.

Good lookin out Chris!

ash

man is it just me. This looks and sounds just like the Eagle by California Worms. Except a double hook instead of a treble.

I have always had good success with The Eagle, is this the same company or owner?

Wayne Dubois are you out there?

ash

I use the left handed Castaic for flippin and pitchin. It is slight bite heavier then the curado in terms of wieght but the flippin and pitchin bar is great and its super free.

The cost I believe is around 135.00

I have not fished the new Curado so I can not comment on that.

I use to go camping on Cottonwood with my family every summer. We would take a boat ride up to willow beach (actualy under the gie wire all the way up to hoover damn) from Cottonwood without a problem. There are no rapids to speak of there is FAST moving water that is ultra clear and ultra cool all ...

ash

It is Ironic, that when fisherman see a picture of a bass in a kitchen they become just as Mental....perhaps seeing the behavior in otheres will allow us to recognize it in ourselves.......Who am I kidding!

ash

If it is an LA times article I wonder as to where thier data comes from? I am from Orange county and typically fishing is just not a highly valued thing. I use to fish lakes that had houses surrounded by them and people that lived there would TELL me there is no fish in the lake! HAR Before I moved ...

ash

Was down at the Nimbus gates today, looks like they are down to two open gates on Nimbus and working with the generators. The sounded off the alarm twice during my lunch. It will be nice to see the water levlels creepin back up at Folsom, I am really surprised with the weights that were posted for t...

ash

The only cure for your sickness now is roughed up bleeding thumbs, making the minimum of 2000 casts a week . This is an addiction, when its raining and winds blowing 20 MPH in the morning the only boats you see on the road at 3:00am are bass boats.....tell me we aint sick! :wink: Welcome to being a ...

ash

I think Havasu is an awesome fishery and getting better each year. It's dissapointing that she didnt open herself up to the tournmanet. But as we know, it could turn on tomorrow. I love it for the diversity, 3-4lb smallies on main lake. 3-7lb largies in Bill Williams or on the river. You could win o...

ash

The fat ones have a tendancy to wobble more (more action) the thin ones have a tighter action. So When you want a wider side to side movement the more bulbous the crank the wider the wobble. For a tighter movment the flat cranks are the key. Where or what decides which one I throw. If I am throwing ...

ash

They opened up 4 gates wide open right after the siren went off. The outcome was one truck floated down river and they had to resuce 5 guys down river. Ouch

The lake was on the rise, however I bet now it is dropping like a stone. 6 gates have been wide open since Sunday.

ash

I think that moon turns full on Sunday or Monday either way those fish are going to move up! Oh boy oh boy oh boy !

ash

Wow I was blown away with this class. If you have not checked out what is going on at Galaxy Marine the first Thursday of the month and are struggling or want a deeper understanding on any of the NorCal lakes and want to hear the str8 scoop on how to approach lakes. Then this is the place for you. I...

ash

What is the telephone number for Galaxy Marine? I plan on going up tonight for their lecture series. Anyone else going to be there?

Thanks

HH

ash

Are they one in the same, I believe EVOLA is marketed by Competitive Edge. If so I have one and will tell you anything you need to know.

ash

You probably want to get the Marine Plywood then apply whatever you want on top. A buddy of mine decked out a Jon Boat and used the spray on liner. He fished salt water and freshwater he LOVED it cause he could hose down his boat at the end of the day. The only negative is man it tears up your knees...

ash

Eric,

I am shopping for a boat and want to see if you have any connections with your dealership in terms of used boats or know of anyone selling a boat.

PM me so we can talk offline.

ash

Yeah sorry I missed the orginal post.

I will give you a call today

ash

I am kicking around fishing CA Bass Federation tournaments however the website was a little confusing. What are the membership requirments? What is the entry fee? Are there still Ghost Clubs available to sign up with? I am seriously considering fishing Federation and an All Delta will help me get mo...

ash

OUt of respect for Tom and sTony I am going to bite the hell out of my tongue.

So in your opinion who is the Best Nor Cal Big Game fisherman?

ash

Yeah, it looks like i started off being an azz, and ill probably die being an azz. I could have stated this better by leaving the personal flaming out of it. There have been personal attacks by certain parties to very close friends of mine and all that crap has been aired on this forum before. So I ...

ash

I have said this before and I will say it again. Hell a thread was locked down south because of this conversation. My morales are I keep it real. I say it like it is and if I am wrong Iwill be the first one to admit it. It gets my goat to see people stand unwaivering about a guy they love to write a...

ash

Sorry "Grommies" or Grom's are a surfer slang. Usualy meaning kids who are always in the water. These are the 6-16 yr olds that just rip it up on the water. It is pretty well known in SD that there is a network of guys that work on these pay to play lakes that call in the big guns when the...

ash

Let me kick this up a notch. Does Fish Chris have grommies out running around the lake daily and calling him when big fish show up? Is Fish Chris's knowledge and patterns limited to 3 or 4 lakes that are closed for half of the week and still allowed to fish on them for trophies when they are closed ...

ash

This is for my neighbor need a 10-15hp transom mount motor for a duck boat.

Must be able to fire up, good compression price range $300.00

Please pm me

Jonathan

ash

Thank you guys, I will swing by C&C on my way home. Most of the sites that I have found are out of state sites. I think I will shoot Dobyns an e-mail as well. My budget is around 10-12k (I know) I really dont want anything later then a 99 and prefer a Evinrude\Johnson motor or Yamaha. I am very ...

ash

I am currently shopping for my first bass boat. I have gone through the classifieds here on this board and I do not see boats that are fitting my critiera. What other resources are available in NorCal to seach for boats.

ash

Sorry I missed it guys! Since I was a dues paying member of that year you would think I would have had a shot in the raffle hummmm.

ash

I dont care who ya are thats funny right there!

Actualy Brian is pretty damn good with the tail spin, I wish I would have paid a lil more attention to his detail with them. I am going to start to use it more this year esp on these schooled up spots.

Good Post!

Ray: Your in the land of fruzz....

It's Friday and I plan on being at the show after work in the morning. I just wanted to know who will be getting the tickets at will call?

Jonathan

ash

Great Idea Ron I think I am making a call today as well!

Here is how the rule reads in: Won Bass Trolling, (the act of manipulating the lure solely by maneuvering the boat under any type of power) is prohibited. FLW rules Trolling as a method of fishing is prohibited. BASS rules I tried to read all 10 pages, I browsed the proper locations and could not fi...

ash

To all: I am new to fishing NorCal water specificaly spots. When looking for better pods of Spots are there specific structure elements you want in the area. Can you run by a point on your graph and determin if the area is condusive to larger spots? If so what elements are you looking for to determi...

ash

I am a new member, it is a great club with good comordery, guest speakers and club tournaments on typicaly on Sundays (as to not compete against your other circuts) We have recently dropped BASS and for the time being we are not a Federation club. Check us out the first Wedensday of February. Jonathan

ash

My jig Stick is usualy spooled with 16lb Sugio Flurocarbon. I use this for Hula grubs and pitchin. This spool typically lasts me 3-4 months! Since I could not find Sugio anywhere up here I started using the Vanish. It is good, however it does have a tendancy to web up and does not have the same dens...

ash

I have several spinning rods, one of them is a GL Loomis and one of them is a Fenwick. I prefer my Fenwick spinning rod, the action, castability and sensativity are great and it is approx 60-75.00

ash

It is really refreshing to here your points from the Mid West as well. I kinda think us Californians are in the hinterland in terms of BassFishing and I imagined the support from BASS would come primarily from the Midwest and South. However looks like Southren and Midwestern men have this thing call...

Gary has had this award several times, and its just a matter of this summer until he is nominated again (i will see to that) and Ron man I am serious the funny part is I am catching bigger fish up here then I did in SoCal personal best and Tournament best. Tis sweet, shhhh no one here is on to the b...

ash

Bite ME :lol: Hehe, for you SoCal boys who dont know Rich he is a great guy and has a strong understanding of fishing, and the subtle differences in fishing NorCal vs SoCal. I was on Camanche for the first time on Sunday, we had 12lbs for 5, my partner and I both had THE kicker fish on line at one p...

ash

First of all let me thank Dewayne for making this thing real! I would also like to thank Gary Collins for a very fun day and puttin us on some fish and explaing the lake a little more, like the size fish being cought were freakishly big for Oroville. Thirdly I would like to thank my first partner Ja...
