      Report: Fished Saturday, it was very windy and slow. My boat is only 12t but guys with 21 t boats were coming in at the same time as me, could not drop shot in that kind o wind and there is no hard bait bite going. OK here even more bad news, my truck got broke into and $800.00 worth o ishing and camping gear stole plus they cut my gas line to my tank and drained my tank, I ran out o gas at the launch ramp. My brother was parked next to me and they put a rock the size o a basketball threw his window and stole $700.00 worth o CD's, ishing and camping gear, they tried to get his gas but could not. this was at Jones Valley public launch ramp. A local named David and his 12 year old son in a 20 t Ranger came to our rescue he said that there has been alot o break in's at Jones Valley and some much worse things also, the Sherri veriied everything he said including the much worse things. Why they did not post the act that there has been a lot o thet going on I don't know. Can someone local there please post signs telling people not to leave valuables in there cars because that is what they are doing, they walk by and i they see something they break in.
      City: San Jose

      Tips: Don't leave things in plain site in your truck or car, don't launch at Jones Valley Launch ramp. Also, it took the Sherri 1 1/2 hrs to arrive and she was not happy she had to drive all the way to Jones Valley and I think the people that are doing the breaks in's know it.

      Report: Kansas,the fishing is good in the spring. You can find largemouth on shallow flats with vegetation,dartheading with finesse wors or Carolina rig with brushhogs or salamanders,north end in dry,cherry and yorty creeks.For smallies rip a spinnerbait with some sort of red on shallow flats in the south forks. Tubes on jigheads and splitshot work well also.If u go have a great time, dont forget dropshot, smokes the smaller bass.

      Report: Couldn't pick up a pattern. Water seemed up so lake was deep. Fished Cherry in the morning with a minimal bite. A couple dinks around standup trees drop shotting black grape robo worms. Couldn't get anything else to go. Moved out to the main lake and ished points. A couple more dinks and then wham, a 5lb hog drop shotting the same black grape worm. My biggest bass at Sonoma. My pops hooked a 2lber on a speed trap. Good day, very hot.
      City: San Francisco

      Tips: Fish seemed to be pretty deep. The only real pattern that produced was the drop shot. Careul thought, the hook loved to snag on tree limbs. Lost alot o terminal tackle.
