Considering how good the bite is at DVL right now, I wouldn't be surprised if the back seater brings in the larger fish for most of the bag.

Well then I guess I will pick Jay Wright. His partner weighed in a fish just over 6 on Sunday so I know he can catch 'em and I know Jay does well out at d.v.l. as well. Jay definitely has a good draw. Eduard sure can put better quality fish from the back of the boat. He is one dropshotting, ika, se...

I was once a big fan of Daiwa reels, but have recently shifted to more Shimano reels (especially spinning reels). I am so tired of of swapping out the drags on Daiwa baitcasters as soon as I purchase one. I have to pay $8-12 bucks for a set of Carbontex washers and spend another 20-30mins on each re...

Nice fish Sid! I did fish the Kfrog event and farmed 4 solid fish on that exact bait. The front hook is a 2/0 and back is a 1/0 Owner ST-5636. I was fishing it on 25# mono. Closer inspection of my bait resulted in tiny teeth scrapings on the top portion of the third joint. Any suggestions on proper ...

Since someone is going to choose their picks sooner or later, I will start it off.

Winner: Manas or Kyle

Congrats Mike!
The tournament was very well organized! Thanks to everyone involved. I had a blast.

10-12# fluorocarbon on a glass rod.

The general rule of thumb is to use stiffer lines on casting reels and softer lines on spinning. If you were to ever try some of Sunline monofiloment on baitcasting, you will notice the line flies off the spool because it is limp and silky smooth. This is not a problem if you know what you are doing...

I guess he should be a stop check, lol.

My friend Ronaldo Kim (ronniek@gmail.com) preregistered for the bass event ($95 check) and can't make it tomorrow and was wondering it either someone can take his spot or if he can get a refund. He tried calling the station and has sent emails but hasn't been contacted by anyone.

"Cooch" showed me that monster of jig when I was up there for the NG Delta event. It looked like a "Reggae" jig! lol They should call it the Bob Marley jig. A lot of the jigs I use for my local waters are tied by a guy out east and he sent me this as a sample. The skirt looks as ...

There were two articles featured on the home page of this site. The first article suggested most tournament anglers should use tactics that catch numbers and hope to catch a kicker fish in the mix. On the flip side of things, Gary Dobyn's article suggested the complete opposite. In his article, he m...

SUCCESS is the perfect word! Congrats on the bag.

Here is your Delta donkey pic.
Fun trip. Hopefully we'll fare better next time up there.

I found an angler to fish with on the 7th. Any takers on 8-10th?

The Pro I was scheduled to Pre-Fish March 7-10th possibly may not fish this event and I am looking for a boater who is looking to share Pre-Fishing expenses.

If you are interested, please contact me ASAP. I will gladly pay $40 a day.

Last I heard was 165 pros and 160ams

Thanks for clarifying things up gents. Appreciate the time.

Sinjin Kim

When would you use a silicone, round rubber, flat living rubber or a mixture of these of these jig skirts?

Are there certain water qualities you prefer to use a certain type of skirt?

Thanks.

Sinjin Kim

Or you could buy them all.

I first had the floater. After seeing the DVD, I bought them all, lol.

Is this the year of burglaries? WTF? Angler's Marine, Sav-On Tackle, John Chin's store... My father's home got robbed a couple weeks ago and after speaking to the detective, it is the worst robbery she (detective) has ever seen in the 20+ years she has been in the force. The perps. went through ever...

If I hear anything, you will be the first to hear from me. I hope you catch this or these SOBs!

TROY is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! How many in a roll is that now? 7 or 8?

Talk about a rush!

Sinjin Kim

All I can say for our low weight is VERADO=Engine Problems. The damn engine stalled 20-30 mins. at a time half a dozen time yesterday. It was frustrating to say the least.

4-6# Daiwa Def Bass Fluorocarbon with various finesse plastics. I use the traditional round split shot (without the removable feature) pinched on a few wrappings of paper towel to prevent line damage and slippage. Hey Sinjin Kim. I learned from Aaron Martins to use a small peice of heat shink tubin...

I got both the ROF 5 and 12 (one each of Juvenile and Holdover Trout). 4 baits for $100. Bass fishing is so damn expensive.

http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/descpage-GGLOV.html I completely broke my 4th and 5th metacarpal while I was in the service.

Dan Warme, most excellent read. I appreciate the time and effort you took to share your experiences with rookies such as myself. Here is an article I've found online by one of the big guns. "Bass Tournament Preparation The best way for me to coach myself for an important tournament is to prepar...

I am logged on BassCalendar.net and see that there is a WON Castaic event this Saturday and a WON DVL event Sunday (both team tournaments). However, I am also logged on the WON website and there is nothing listed for this weekend at either lakes. So is there or isn't there? On the USAC website, ther...

Not only do I think one over 10lbs. will be caught, I believe there will be a "teener" caught by the talents on the water that day. All those years of experience and talent on a relatively small body of water and not single DD bass caught? If that may be case this coming Friday, it must ha...

Had a feeling it was an option that made the cheddah.

Wow! 0.01# difference between 4th and 5th and a $330 payday difference on the non-boater side.

Sinjin Kim

I use flouro a lot when I split shot. For bigger baits, the sinking properties of flouro don't really make a difference. I usually won't fish it on anything smaller than a 4,5" Robo. Also, I typically use a heavier Mojo with a larger bait, i.e. I'll use a 1/4 oz. in deeper water with a 6"...

Are they hand tied? Living rubber skirts, flat silicone or a mixture? The Arkie jigs in particular. What stryle, brand and style of hook? Anyone care to share a picture?

Thanks ahead of time gents.

Thanks for the tip. Depending on my schedule, I am going to do my darnest to fish the WON Bass Pro/AAA events at Mead, Havasu, Delta and Clear Lake this year as a back-seater. I'll see you there then, as I'm doing all of the WON Pro/Am events except Pleasant. Learning a Pros fish catching tricks is...

Prime example (THANKS James!) - at the 2006 US Open I drew James, and while James is a sharing guy I'm not sure I would have gotten as much out of the day as I did if it wasn't shared weight. Maybe so, as James is a great guy and a great draw, but I can't tell you how much I learned that day. I had...

Sinjin Kim

Sinjin, I really like the shared-weight format right now, at my current level of competence (or lack thereof), as I feel the Pro's are more apt to be helpful and feel less threatened, thus allowing me to learn a lot more. Some of those Pro's are vacuum cleaners... they don't leave much, if anything...

I will be fishing my first PRO/AM (individual weight) tournament this year (March, Delta FLW National Guard) and have done some research on past weights and noticed "Ams" who were paired up with big names such as Barrack and Rooke didn't do so well. My question is this: During an individua...

Sinjin Kim

Mike Hart. If Gary Collins and Troy Lindner were fishing as well, then any of the three names above could take first. Since it is a shared weight event, we may see an upset. Its fishing, no guarantees. But If I had to choose, M. Hart gets my vote. By the way, 6 friends of mine went out Sunday to pre...
