Gotta get over the hill as I haven't been for a few weeks and have a back seat available for this Saturday. Weather should be quite mild and we shall find fish somewhere. 530 218-2367.......Len

Basslab

I NEVER miss this tournament and it is such a blast that my brother flies in from Houston, Texas every year just to fish this one with me. Whether you cash a check or not, you WILL get your investment back at the Saturday night banquet and believe me, Bill and his guys really know how to run a tourn...

Basslab

I've been out for a while so could you please give particulars on when and where this will occur. Thanks

Basslab

Thanks guys, now it all comes back to me..........duh.

I had some fiberglass work done on my boat by a fella up in Anderson by the name of Bob but that's all I remember other than he did excellent work. A friend of mine needs some serious work done on their boat and looking for more info about Bob unless there is someone closer to the Lincoln area. Than...

Well folks, it's that time again so check your mailbox for the entry form or go on line to www.bobsmarine-ca.com and get signed up for the annual Champion, Stratos, Javelin tournament out of Konocti Vista Casino on Sept 12 & 13. I seem to say the same thing every year and got my stepson and part...

Basslab

Had a last minute cancellation for tomorrow and all rigged for Clear Lake so I am posting a one hour notice that if anyone wants a back seat, we'll split costs and spend the day at Clearlake. Here's my cell and it will be turned off at 8:30 PM....530-218-2367.

Basslab

You're missing one of the best and closest this time of year. Camp Far West would be my choice with Senkos and tubes, it's a no brainer but be prepared to wrap up you day around noon as that's when all the skiers wake up from their hangovers and take to the water. Bye bye time.

Basslab

Being a Ford man for over 20 years, I purchased my first Toyota in May 2007 in the form of the new Tundra. Yeah, it was my first 4x2 but all the room of the extra cab and that big 381 HP with the TRD package was irresistable. Last week, my daughter and I took a road trip to Flagstaff, Arizona to vis...

Basslab

Last time on the water, my "Hold It" container that straps to the seat pedestal finally gave up and blew off so decided to stop by the Sportsman's Warehouse in Rocklin. As I drove up I didn't see too many vehicles in the lot and getting to the door there was a sign stating they have no hun...

Basslab

Since I live in Wheatland and CFW is now full, decided this AM to spend the day finding out what is going on over there. Wind was up a bit so I nosed the boat outward from the ramp and used the trolling motor to get me out and ready to go and put the hammer down but got nothing but a face full of wa...

Basslab

The east side will be locked until the middle of April and for my stepson's birthday, we always go there on the weekend of his Bday around the 9th. Always launch from the Stoneyford side and since they haven't really seen anything for a while, we usually tear them up on jigs around the steep walls s...

Basslab

Drove by CFW this afternoon and it is filled to the brim. Always the first to drain, always the first to fill. Can't say how the bite is but the water looks a tad bit stained.

Basslab

Never loved a truck more than my '07 Tundra. The only thing that I have seen is the rubber weather tracking on the roof has blown off twice, once for each side but the dealership took care of it.

Basslab

Oh yeah, no more Lake Fork, headed for Falcon next month. Any tips or suggestions? I do have a few things I plan on taking but will be using a guide and his equipment.

Basslab

Just curious, has Oroville reinstalled daily launch fees? Trying to decide whether or not to get my annual pass this weekend.

Basslab

Whatever your feelings are for BASS, I also received the CD and one of the last lines on the enclosed letter is that you can keep it as a gift without paying.....which is what I will do. Pretty certain they will not send me any more after receiving neither the CD or money.

Basslab

They had 96 boats 2 years ago, 109 last year and are shooting for at least 125 this year and as everyone has already said, it is the one tournament you don't want to miss. I don't know how Bill and his boys do it but they get better each and every year and remember that they have a mechanic and part...

Basslab

I've had a couple pair made at Walmart and with my progressive lens and all, the total cost for polarized were around $325 but it has a lot to do with your prescription and the type of frames you choose. Only problem we sight impaired folks have is the fact that most of the "Joe Cool" wrap...

Basslab

Have I missed the announcement of this great, annual tournament? I have yet to see an invitation but if you are interested in the Sept 6/7 tournament out of Konocti Vista, go to www.bobsmarine-ca and print out the entry form. If you are a Champ or Stratos owner, you don't want to miss this one as it...

Basslab

Got each of my 2 within 4 weeks of mailing. Remember, the rebate ended the end of May, unless there was an extension I was unaware of.

Basslab

In case anyone is interested, there is a team tournament sponsored by Camp Far West this Saturday the 21st from 6: AM to 1: PM. Cost is $50 per team which includes big fish pot and if it is anything like the last one, a BBQ was provided afterward. Still lots of water and we are launching off the ramp.

Basslab

I've received both and each took about 4 weeks. Pretty cool!

Basslab

This may have been answered before and I missed it but what does a guy do that goes to Clearlake before inspection sites are open? I already have the paperwork filled out and will stop by and see Bob Higgins but are we forbidden to launch prior to receiving the sticker? I just hate to have to miss t...

Basslab

I'm on my 3rd custom cover from Dean's and all you gotta do is tell them what make and model boat you have and if you want a separate cover for the motor or built into the boat cover. I have always had the two piece as it cuts down on moisture buildup. Great, heavy duty cover and just in case you wa...

Basslab

Oh yeah, got a couple KSS610 for Senkos and KCB610 for Creature Baits. Love them as they are tough and very sensitive and have been in my arsenal for over 5 years. I'd highly recommend them.

Basslab

Just purchased my first Quantum PT and when I was spooling it up the other night I noticed a card on the bottom of the box and lordy, lordy there was info on a rebate through the end of May 2008 for $50. Now that takes some of the pain away and will really be looking forward to trying it at the Afte...

Basslab

I couldn't agree more with your assessment of Bilicheck and his way of playing the game which is way out of line with what any other team has done. He definately has a great football mind and has surrounded himself with other great football minds but he is like a politician that must take full respo...

Basslab

I do believe that you will need to purchase the optional "sports" package to receive channel 656.........I know I had to but I now get so many more fishing channels along with all the major cities and watch local sports from any part of the country.

Basslab

Great idea! Keep us informed and you can count me as one of the 20 boaters.

Basslab

Oh yeah, almost forgot the boat..........BASSLAB

Basslab

Gettin' harder and harder to find a fishing related plate that is not already taken but my new Tundra sports.........5BIGGNS

Basslab

Oh yeah, they have fish tanks with all types of fish but it looks like they haven't found any really big bass yet or they were well hid when I was checking them out. Very high ceilings and you'll love it.

Basslab

I drove up to the new Reno Cabela's this morning on their "personal" invitation, actually anyone having a Cabela's Visa was invited today and when we drove by around 10:30 I couldn't believe the parking lot. Not only was it full but the overflow parking was overflowing! Well we went in any...

Basslab

I recently purchased my Tundra rubber mats from Cabelas as they are one of the few that have custom mats for the '07 and I also had them for my 95 Ford. Must say that the tan color matches the interior color perfectly and it fits like a glove. Although Cabelas is opening their new store in Reno on W...

I am a life member and have been sent 3 various items to test. When you fill out the info, you specify what you fish for and being a bass fisherman, the first product was a night light you attach to you rod tip for drowning a worm at night........never tested that one. The second was a scent remover...

Basslab

Being a Ford man for over 30 years, I recently purchased a 2007 Toyota Tundra/Extra Cab with the I-Force V-8 that cranks out an amazing 381 HP. Not only do you not realize you are towing a 3,000+ pound boat (202 Champion with tandem axle) but with just over 5,000 miles and not totally broken in, I a...

Basslab

Went to my "local" lake this morning and found the new and improved CFW launch ramp was closed off due to low water and we had to launch from the dirt road with NO dock whatsoever. I asked how much to launch and was told $15 and I aked why full price for less than half service? It used to ...

Basslab

Have you given any thought to contacting the manufacturer?

Basslab

And if you are a Champion or Stratos boat owner and don't sign up for this one, you are missing the best tournament of the year. There were 96 boats last year and looks better for this year so contact Bob's Marine and sign up, you'll have a great time!!!!!

Basslab

Yeah, the "Little Woman" and family got me a new Motorguide Digital 109 for Christmas and since I have been down for a while, finally got it powered properly and it's now ready for action.

Basslab

Adding a 4th battery and new on-board charger to the Champion and I saw no way another battery could be installed.......just no room but don't tell Mike it can't be done. I picked it up today and the restructuring he and Phillip did was nothing short of superb! I am still in awe at how he got it all...

Basslab

For those of us that wear prescription eyewear, finding a pair of sunglasses to fit over prescription glasses has always been a nightmare. I have run through a bunch including Solar Bats but the main problem I found is the side plates were an insert that eventually loosened up and vibrated while on ...

Basslab

Although Lake Fork is wonderful..........it ain't Clearlake!! They have had a weather change and the cold front has dropped the water temp 7-10 degrees and the 2 best yesterday were a 5 and a 7 lber. They are having a PAA (Professional Anglers Assoc) tournament this coming weekend with a $1,000,000 ...

Basslab

Here I sit in Dallas tonight and will be on Lakefork in the morning for my third annual trip and told our guide that if he watched Bassmaster Saturday morning he knew what he was up against with the CA anglers. I'll let you know if he can find us anything to compare to Clearlake's "hawgs"....

Basslab

You couldn't have said it better Bob, and anyone that wants to see how a really great local tournament is run, come on out and fish this one. My brother will be coming back from Texas again this year just to fish it and it was all he talked about for months. See you there and you better get your roo...

Basslab

Only one thing that I found truly works and NEVER allows the stain to reappear.......FOLEX. It can be found at either Lowe's or Home Depot in the cleaner area. Works wonders on coffee and any stains on the house carpeting.

Once again it proves what BOAT stands for - Break Out Another Thousand

As a general rule of thumb, cutting back 1/3 on throttle usually gives you near 50% increase in fuel economy.

Basslab

Does anyone know if Lake Davis up near Portola freezes over and if so when the thaw takes place. I'm gonna go get some of those toothy critters before they drain and poison it again later this year.
