So I guess that means when I get home from work on monday all those bass on nests will be gone. Not trying to beat up on ya but every time there is a tourney on that lake during spawn seems like I find nothing but empty beds after. Its not that I want to fish the beds I dont fish them at all. I just...

That is how it is wired right now.

If I had 40 to spend on a boat I would find a boat in great condition with 7 or 8 years on it and drop a new VMAX SHO on it. The new Yamaha 4 strokes are the way to go. I really like the new SHO motors. I was looking at a place in Visalia that has a new 19 footer with a 200 SHO on it. Well I am pro...

Cool
Thanks John

Great Looking baits John, I really like my new ones as well and they turned out just like I wanted. The only guy I know that does made to order baits and at a very reasonable price to boot.

Marty, not being a chemist it might be a difficult question to answer..But the dissolved oxygen you are talking about is free bubbles of oxygen rather than oxygen that has bonded molecularly to the molecules of water..If they were bonded with the water molecules then you would have hydrogen peroxid...

Wow I was really looking forward to this as a learning tool. I do appreciate the heads up and it seems like a cool program and all. It seemed more like a marketing tool than a tutorial. I really did not learn much and thought they would show more about the units settings and how to get the most out ...

Shall I pm my address so I can get my donut. It has nothing to due with power. If you read the other Humminbird forums you will find I am not the only one who feels there may be a software glitch. I have a buss under the dash that has the size of wire that you would use to run batteries with that I ...

Tsunamis do not really diminish over distance as water is not compressible. For all of us in So Cal I hope you are ready for the big one because it is not a matter of if but of when. Scientists have been saying we are due for a real good one for a while. My father used to run a good sized FD in my h...

I think someone posted that before here as I do remember seeing it. There is just no way I could treat my ride like that unless it was some kind of life or death scenario.

Had everything working perfect. Spent the whole day while on vacation and should have been fishing. Today was dedicated to tracing all wires and using label tape to indicate what the end of each wire was. Then hooked it all up according to Humminbird diagram and everything works. Turned it off and t...

Yeah I tried that. It says it is not hooked up to GPS.

Kind of funny Dish helped me update my guide and while we were waiting he did a search on his end to try and locate the show for 10:00 am Saturday and could not find it listed. Now my channel guide is showing it and it has been programmed to tape it. For Dish Network Future Pro Tour is Channel 409 S...

I just bought the package for getting CSN on dish and I get the 409 now. Only problem so far is when I do a search to record Future Pro Tour I get nothing. I am hoping it will be there after the reciever updates itself tonight.

I did that and that is why I posted the results above. After researching Dish Network I had to order a $7.00 a month sports package to get Comcast Sports Network on Dish.

I loaded the newest software update on to my 998 and it does not give me GPS or speed anymore. I did restore to defaults left the unit on and inserted the software upgrade. The 998 is hooked to an 1197 on the bow with the interlink and has the weathersense installed and satellite weather although I ...

According to the CSN website in the above post channels are as follows. DirecTV = 698 Dish Network = 409 AT&T U-Verse = 767 I am unsure of the times and if they are the same as Comcast but I hope this helps. If anyone finds any of the times for any of the 3 providers please post them up as I wou...

Wow, I am sorry to hear about your current predicament. It does seem like that should have been caught during inspection. I know I try to be as thorough as I can before I take something in and do things myself. I just had a VMAX 250 SHO on my boat due to believing that the current motor was a 99 whe...

So when I was talking with the Biosinix folks and they said they did not have new sounds to be put in the unit on a sd card, like they said they would in the near future, because they were just trying to keep up with demand as the units were flying off the shelfs they were blowing smoke.

There is a small hotel next to Pepes mexican restaraunt on Railroad canyon. It is a little closer than Temecula. It is in the city of Canyon Lake and is called the Rodeway inn @ 31820 Railroad Canyon Rd (951) 244-1164. Right next to it is the Canyon Lake town Center which is also the name of the clo...

I am sure someone will disagree with me or get their feathers ruffled to some degree but to me it is simple and basic farmer physics. Flatter bottom boats do not handle rough water as well as boats with more vee built in to the hull. The flatter bottom hulls slap down harder and the ones with more v...

its the cheapest of all the oil products to make, a lot less refining than say the other 3 grades of gasoline. but yet its the most expensive ? it use to be so much cheaper compared to regular gas, why is it now so expensive ? Because they know they can get it and there are plenty who need it. Its ...

It aint keeping me off the water. It seemed to go up about 30 cents to $3.70 pretty quick though. Pisses me off the American dollar is going down hard, not nearly what it used to be worth.

Nothing like having a real nice boat, your gonna love it. Thats a beautiful ride, Life is better with a sweet ride and thats what you got, it will ride well in rough water too. Good oil, fuel additives, safety gear and good maintenance records and that will provide you many years of fun. Nice choice...

I would really like to find a website where I can order the lines from. Anybody know of any?

If I am fishing deep I am fishing Fluoro and if I am fishing on top it is either braid or mono. Braid I use when I want less stretch or want to use a smaller size reel.

LT.jpg Soft line through baits are basically hung the same only I use a paperclip and bend it over after pushing it through the hole in the top of the box.

I have never heard of the S series only TE and B. Can you post a pic of the reel. You will probably have more luck on the WB Shimano forum though.

Any chance we could get this taped for Western Bass TV. I have fished Clear Lake with Ross and was quite impressed with his knowledge and character. Being a So Cal guy, well you know.

Khanbaits have the best quality jigs in term of skirt tying. Their jigs are hand tied one layer by layer which differs from any other jigs out there. The rubber will flair evenly creating ball like shape when put in water. I thought I would look for the Khanbaits and all the site links say the site...

That is a really hard question to answer as it depends on what forage you have and what the bass are doing. I started with a 7" Stocker Trout and fished it for a few days for nothing. Then I got a 7 and 9 in the same day and got really hooked. Match the forage and fish the proper part of the wa...

According to a friend who works at the local hardware store grade 8 bolts will not be threaded all the way and that is one of the stipulations to grade 8. His family has owned that store as long as I have been around so I figure that info is reliable. Rich

I would use some wire, cable or string and mark it every foot. Then just route it as if you were running your new one. Note the length when done and order from a marine part supplier or boat shop. Looks like you can order them from Overton's on line if need be.
