For the Delta,I'm from the KISS school (Keep It Simple Stupid)
Wadda Jig, black with blue trailer, brown with purple trailer. start with a 3/8, then try the 1/2 ounce.

That's what I'm sayin Mark, let the Bass Pros use nets.

Wolfeman

If BASS is going to continue to resist allowing the anglers to use nets in their tournaments, then they should require each boat to have a rubber 'landing mat' on the boat so that the bass are not flopping around on the boat carpet, thereby damaging their protective slime coating. If they care about...

Here's my conspiracy theory. Back in the 60s the Mafia had control of most of the labor unions. One of their big cash cows, believe it or not, was the concrete business. They would have the unions guys argue to make sure that more than enough concrete was ordered for the job. They would sell the exc...

I put a Humminbird Helix 7si at the console of my 18ft Ranger. I haven't played with it a lot, and the few times I used it it was on the Delta--I'm told the SI isn't made for the Delta because of the abundance of vegetation--but it seemed to be pretty cool and I'm looking forward to checking it out ...

Wolfeman

And all of the other boats want to compare themselves to Ranger. And most of the time they want to compare their top-of-the-line, because none of them can compare model-for-model. Next time you look at a Nitro go over to the passenger side and check out the rod ramp; it doesn't line up with the hole...

I fished as a non with TonyB for my very first NutCase, out of Orwood. I think it was the second one. Bob Santora won TopNut.

There was a NutCase event a few weeks ago.

I sent a text message to Long Nguyen. I think that's who you mean.

I used boatcoversdirect.com. Got a nice cover for my Ranger; got the top of the line.
Mistakenly bought a separate motor cover and the customer service for returning it was very good.

When the fish are on the beds and you can hide behind a tulle patch and drop the bait right onto the bed, and the fish can't even see the boat. Yeah, that's when the ten footers are going to come out. Saw a guy damn near clean out a cove full of bass on the beds at a small local lake by doing that e...

Nothing can replace good Quality Assurance testing. Wish more companies did it.
Building quality products at a reasonable price is a key to success. You've proven that.
Keep up the good stuff, Gary.

Congrats on a monster fish.
And props for the great video; excellent production quality and nice narration/storytelling.

I bought a boat from Tony many moon ago. I can vouch for the TLC he gives his boats.

The sight fishing guys will love this during the spawn. All of the springtime tournaments will be won by guys using the longer poles on the bed fish.

Gorgeous boat. Wish I could afford it.
Would make a great retirement boat (if I ever get to retire,

And I really like the extra transom saver that can be seen in the first photo, between the motor and the boat.

Wolfeman

Hey 'oldie but a goodie', please let me know what quotes you get for getting the boat recarpeted.
I have a 1997 Ranger R80, and got a quote of $2000, which I thought was ridiculous.
I'd appreciate hearing what you find.
Thanks,

As soon as I saw these at Dick's this weekend I thought, 'Man, these things will catch fish(ermen)

Got the inspection at Lake Building Supplies. Piece of cake.
And they have a person checking for them at the Lucerne ramp.

Was out last Saturday, fishing a mostly outgoing tide. We had some luck throwing 6 inch Senkos in sparse tules, mostly down south. Got the biggest one in a raging current down near Disco. Sorry I can't be of more help, but there are a lot of one pounders in the system. My advice...go junk fishing. Y...

Going to Clear Lake. Coming in from the north on 20 (via 101).
Where's the nearest place to get the boat inspection?
Thanks,

I've been researching the 7 inch models. The one thing I seem to have trouble figuring out from the specs is the transducer. Some of them come with them, but it appears that some of them don't. Or they come with one type of transducer but to get the full value of the unit you need to buy a different...

They should have stuck with the 5 fish limit for the Finals. KVD was so far out in front that the Finals were boring. Don't get me wrong, I watched all of the Finals, but it was nothing compared to the excitement of the Semis.
This was the best online tournament.

nothing like getting slammed by a big bass on a buzzbait at night on the Delta.

I'll save you trouble. The bait cost $179.99.

What techniques benefit from an 8:1 reel? And why?
And, why shouldn't I use one for everything except cranking?

Dude, buy a scale. Whenever I hear someone say "Has to go six pounds." I immediately think 4.
Guess I watched too many episodes of Roland Martin's show.

Mark, Guess go get a Ranger 520 and be done with it. I'm running a Ranger R20 (17'10") with a Mariner 150. This is a rock-solid boat and I have run across the loser end of Franks in some tough conditions; just get it up on plane and find the sweet spot and go like hell. But there are times wher...

Wolfeman

There is a formula that is pretty accurate for determining the weight of a bass. All you need to know is the length and girth of the fish. So the next time you catch a fish and don't have a scale or a tape measure, pull off some line and cut one piece of line for the length and another for the girth...

I probably shouldn't be posting on this subject because I don't fish tournaments: can't afford them, don't feel like taking away from my 'fun-fishng' time, and mostly...I don't have the skills to compete. :D But if I did fish them, and I found out that I had violated the rules I would notify the tou...

Windex on a small terricloth towel, also works great. Got that idea from Angel Valdez.

'Folsom Food Gates Opened'. How cool. Wonder if the cheeseburgers are any good?

Wolfeman

Anybody know the story with Chris Zaldain zeroing on Day and nothing on Day 2? Is he fishing or not?
And any tips on how to get the Live stuff working would be helpful. I probably need to dump AT&T.

Wolfeman

Had the same thing happen at a NutCase Rally at Clearlake. Thought I had BigNut locked up. Didn't even keep the 20+ pounder for OddNut cause it came on the first cast of the day and I didn't want to slime Hugo's boat.

Actually the pro teams don't charge the DOD, rather the fees are paid by the National Guard as a recruiting tool, and that comes out of your taxes. The pro teams don't charge, the NG gives it to them.

Got another question for the guys who did the install themselves.
I'm guessing you already had a jackplate. True?

I want to know the pros and cons of each model.
And, if you can only afford to get one Talon or one Power Pole, which would you get and why?
