In checking out the local So Cal. schedules,,,, It looks like Best Bass Tournaments has a tournament on March 2nd at Pyramid, the same day that is for that lake on your So. Cal. schedule????

DTaylor

Does the new Vanford have an anti-reverse switch?

DTaylor

Thanks a lot John! Actually we were at Pyramid,,, if it was at Castaic, I am sure they wouldn't have let us launch! It was the toughest conditions I have ever fished at Pyramid. It blew hard all day, and I lost my trolling motor batteries with over an hour to go. But the fishing was actually pretty ...

Please see PM ,,, interested if not sold

For those of you wanted some details on this Saturday's Anglers Marine Customer Appriciation tournament at Castaic,,, I just spoke to Rick, and he asked me to give you all an update. Rick just left the lake, and the lake staff will be opening the "auxilary" gate at 5:00am Saturday. With th...

The brand is Swivel Ease,,, They are for a 2005 Champion 206 DCB

DTaylor

Yes... they do slide in,,, and to unlock them, they have a small black button at the base of the pole. If you would like, I can send you an emailed photo of them,,, just respond to my email address with the subject "poles" and I will send it to you,,, Thanks, Dennis Taylor basfshnstd@aol.com

I am looking to buy two of the older black seat posts that came on older Champion Boats. Would like one of the longer ones for a butt seat, and one of the short ones for the rear back chair. If you only have one I would still be interested. Thanks

DTaylor

Richard, I just replaced mine on my 2005 Champion,,, I got the Boat Buckles from Tacklewarehouse. A bit pricy at 70 bucks (free shipping) But the quality seems excelent !

Always a great show put on they Rick and the Anglers crew. Hope to see some of the DVL guys out there,,, Jay Poore and I have traveled south and enj...

Everyone, It is with great sadness that I report that our Friend John Ed Wilder III passed away this afternoon. Please remember him in your Prayers,,, As Jay Poore said to me, "John is on the Big Pond now"

Thanks Dan, it was really a fun night of fishing for us, as we went through a LOT of fish,,, Mark got the big one,,, almost an 8,,, then we just had all solid fish. We really didn't think 21 pounds would plase us that high,,, but we'll take it ! Hope to see you and Mike out there at the next one. De...

Sounds like a fun schedule with 2-Day events,,, Is there any kind of special inspection process at San Antonio? , or just the normal "clean & dry"

I was #298,,, and my "appointment" is tomorrow. The Ranger who called said the boat should be completely stripped,,, tackle, rods, everything! Then as before, the boat should be "Clean & Dry",,, and that includes the plumbing! He said they will be blowing air into the livewel...

I just thought I would update everyone on how Cachuma's new lake entry process is going, and how it effects tournament events. I went to Cachuma on Friday to pre-fish. They had two lines for the inspection process which started about 7:00am. Their process is very similar to that of Casitas, "cl...

Besides being on the shore all over the lake,,, even more important is the fact that we have seen some of them with bar-b-ques on the shore! With all the fires in that aresa, and the increased fire danger this year, I am surprised the Fire Department has not stepped in,,, Most likely they are not aw...

DTaylor

I agree with Rod, the VooDoo is the best bait out there when it comes to that kind of bait ,,, I also use the Zoom Split tails, but I also like using Yamamoto single tail grubs,,, 3" on the 3/8 oz VooDoo, and 4" on the 1/2 oz. I just try to match the color grub, with the color skirt I am u...

Nobody has mentioned the non boater side ,,, I will take Big Water Bob Roady !!!!

Chris,,, I sent you a PM,,,, with the address,,,, Thanks again for a well run event!

According to the gentleman at the Lake Tackle Store, while other smallmouth may have been caught at Casitas and not reported or registered,,, they have recognized, and recorded that Jay's 2.75 smallmouth is a lake record! It was a beautiful smallie,,, and our 1st fish of the day. We couldn't believe...

DTaylor

Rick, my back is doing just so-so,, they want to do more surgery, but I am holding off for now,,, as to the off limits, you're right, being retired I can fish about every day, but I just think for guys who can't get out during the week, it levels the playing field. But my main reason is, many guys d...

DTaylor

Ron, what happened to your vote on the off limits subject? It seems to have disappeared??? For the record, I would like to see the off limits rule continued,,, but I also wanted the name "Anaheim Angels" to stay!

Dennis

Well said Mike,,,,

It is only a couple of tournaments into the season,,, Let's leave it alone, and revisit at the end of the year,,, But I do agree, it would help if all organizations were doing it the same, and I "thought" that was where we were currently at? My vote is still: Monday - Friday off limits,,, ...

DTaylor

Briain, you're right, the Voo Doo is an awesome bait. It is not just a simple knock off of the Chatterbait like I have seen. The larger blade allows you to swim it very slow, and still get a lot of action, or when you make a fast retrieve, it is very erratic, and it won't roll over. I also like the ...

DTaylor

Cameron, I would like to purchase the reel, and Loomis 783,,, please email me how you would like to complete the deal.
Also, can you send any photos or list of hardbaits in the plano boxes?

thanks

Ron, this is very a disappointing announcement to all of us who fished the 2006 Anglers Choice Team season. They have had their Team Championship scheduled at Clear lake on Oct. 26 & 27 for the entire year. It would be difficult, or actually impossible for someone to compete for two days, then d...

DTaylor

Since Mark and I both have Cul-M-Rite's, and our electronics on our boats,,, we would be happy to sell the prizes we won, a Lowrance X-135 Sonar valued @ $400.00 for $300.00 ,,, and the Cul-M-Rite XL valued @ $200.00 for $125.00 Anyone interested contact me via a PM on this site.
Thanks, Dennis

DTaylor

Cachuma or Castaic? Ron, on your post it says the 1st tournament is at Castaic,,, but in this weeks WON Bass it says Cachuma???

Which one is it?

Dennis

Mike,,, I think you better check the "vast majority" again,,, WON Bass is close to 300 including the Monster option,,, and I believe Anglers Choice & NBW are around 270-280,,, and what will be the TOTAL entry for the saturday night event at DVL?
Dennis

DTaylor

Since there is always a lot of talk on the forum about paybacks,,, a friend of mine came up with a little formula that can give you a rough idea of how a tournaments paybacks are, in relation to others. Remember, this is just a rough way of tracking,,, Presuming that most entries are around $280 dol...

DTaylor

Lynne, just a quick question on NBW payouts,,, with 25 teams, your right, $8,790.00 is a tremendous payback! But why with 28 Teams at the NBW event at Piru was the total payback $5,125 ? Is the entry fees differant from region to region,,,

Day or night,,, 3, 5, or six fish limits,,, all are outstanding limits, not to forget the 7 fish limit of 51+ by Poore and Wilder years ago, which many felt was the "limit to beat" ,,, You will get a lot of opinions on this, day vs. night, swimbait fish vs. other baits etc. ,,, All I will ...
