Here are the results for the day. Some tough fishing out on the Delta today. It started out a little breezy but by the time the sun came up it laid down. Congrats to the young team of Sean Alarid and Danny Delamater for leading the charge and taking the victory. They had big fish for the day, 8.27, ...

There never has been nor will there ever be a late fee. All-In is $290. I would appreciate everyone showing up as early as possible so we can get out no later than 0545. Remember this is a 6 hour tournament so you will have plenty of time to have the family take you out for Father's Day. Any questio...

Konocti Resort can do it and will be your best bet based upon the time you are going to get there. All of the tackle stores can do it but I dont know if they will be open. Call ahead and try to make arrangements. Cost is usually around 10 bucks.

No better way to celebrate Fathers Day than to fish the final event of the WON Delta Region. No membership required for this final event and since this will be a 6 hour tournament you will make it home in time to have the family take you out to dinner. I will be at Russo's at 0400 ready to start the...

Here are the results for the day today. Congrats to Fred Rex and Dale Ball for claiming a victory at the last tournament of the season.

The final event of the season will go down this weekend. As usual the registration will take place at Tackle-It starting at 0415. Lets get there early so we can get the first boat out by 0545 or earlier. I want everyone to take full advantage of the top water bite so lets get this done fast. With th...

Yes the Summer Series is still going to happen. The web-site has the dates posted and they will be Swimbait/Frog/Night. Size doesn't matter on the swimbait as long as its called a swimbait. Call if you have any questions. The Top 5 Teams automatically qualify for the North TOC

Just an awesome day up at Clear Lake today. Fish still in the spawning mode and willing to eat. Weather was great and the boat traffic wasn't too bad except for getting out of the water. Some teams had a little bit of a wait and the awards were completed by the time they got there. My apologies to t...

The Vineyard Region for WON will be having the 6th tournament of the season this Saturday the 23rd. Ed will open Tackle It at 0430 to start the registration process.

Just had mine replaced on an 05 225 Pro XS. The shaft wasn't that expensive it was the pinon gears that had a couple grinded teeth from hitting something. After the two pinon gears, prop shaft, seals and labor it was almost $1300.

Here are the results from today. Hot and tough describes the day today out on the Delta. Congrats to Brandt Castorina and Rob Wenning for weighing in the only bag over 20 pounds today. Most anglers said the fishing was pretty tough but these guys got on them throwing swimbaits and frogs. Job well do...

Just to let everyone know we WILL be going out of B&W this weekend. Please allow yourself enough time to get on the water as this is a small Marina. I will have 2 people for boat checks in the parking lot in the morning and one boat on the water doing boat checks. If we have to have smaller flig...

48 Teams hit the water today hoping to stay in the points race for the year end fish off at Clear Lake. A beautiful day on the Delta with awesome weather. Much to everyones suprise the bite has fallen off and many anglers struggled to catch the better fish. Leading the way at the scales today was th...

28 teams braved the chilly morning at Clear Lake. The temperature at blast off was a cool 36 degrees and, with ice on the docks and everyone bundled up off they went. It did manage to hit 68 degrees by weigh-in and the big blow from yesterdays wind really put a damper on the fishing. Coming to the s...

Tough bite???? Abosolutely. Later in the year??? Seems like it. What I know isn't much except the fact that we better pay attention to what the politicians want to do to the best fishery on the left coast. Folks need to speak up and defend that constitutional right of free speach or the once fabled ...

BSmith

You are absoutely correct but where are all the younger class of fish???? Those fish Stafford caught were all pre-spawn that were in deeper water. The bite is changing on the Delta and hopefully all the spraying/blue stonning doesn't kill all of the grass. As the tide changes all that spraying and s...

Take a look around and see how many bluegill you can find. You hardly see any in Franks anymore. You deffinately dont see any around the Hook. No grass no bluegill. People need to stop spraying the grass.

There are a lot of folks that deserve a big THANK YOU for thier help in getting this together and supporting it. First off, Thanks to all the anglers that chose to participate in this event. I had a great time and got to meet a lot of great people. Taking the time away from family to fish a two day ...

A beautiful day out on the Delta today. No wind and temperatures in the high 70s. Taking home 1st Place and $3000 the team of Sean and Brian Stafford held on for the victory. Throwing up 21.71 pounds gave them a two day total of 54.86. Making a great move today to end in 2nd Place the team of John a...

Well, here are the results for Day 1. The morning started out cold and windy (25 mph) but ended up slacking off slowly and by 9:30 am it was dead calm. Stayed that way for the rest of the day. Just a great day weather wise. Big Sean Stafford has the lead with 33 pounds right now and that gives him a...

Guys, I have gotten more than an few phone calls asking if this is a 1 fish or 5 fish tournament. We will be fishing for 5 fish per day with your best 10 weighed in over the two days just like any other team tournament. I will be at the Hook in Oakley starting at noon on Friday to begin early regist...

Phil,

Of course you can fish solo. I would recommend a partner but if you cant find one then why miss it. As part of Team LL you should be able to scrounge up something.

BSmith

Gents,

Remember that there is NO affliation required to fish this tournament. No membership fees makes it cheaper on everyone. With the amount of calls that I have received I am hoping to see a good number of teams show up. Keep spreading the word this will be a good time for team fishermen.

BSmith

Gents, If we have 5 or 55 teams show for this event it is going to happen. I would prefer the 55 to make things interesting and to see WHO really is the top team on the Delta for this weekend. Give your buddies a call and try to get the word out as much as possible. A 90% pay back rarely happens in ...

BSmith

What a beautiful day on Clear Lake today. Mild winds today that only fostered a great bite. Seems that Bob Higgins and his partner Steve Perkins found themselves a nice honey hole that they pretty much milked the whole day for 31.93 pounds and the victory taking home $2875. Coming off the secret spo...

Due to the cancellation of the WON Tournament in April, I am going to host a Super Teams Tournament on those dates.

47 Teams came out for a pretty decent day. Obviously the bite is getting better as the results show. Taking home the victory today, the team of Paul Tilton and Kevin McEneaney, smoked a nice 30.60 pounds of fish capped off by a healthy 11.82 to take big fish honors for the day. The big fish was skin...
