Our second stop for the Western Rayovac Series at the Cal Delta is in the record books and congrats to our winner Wade Curtiss. He did a great job eliminating a strong field of anglers under some tough fishing for the Delta. Wade was very consistent with his weights and it was a well deserve win. I ...

I was finally able to get away from the office and put in a much needed day of fishing at Lake Saguaro here in Arizona. Man it sure felt good getting back on the water since my win at Lake Havasu in early February. Between boat shows and our prime time boat selling months, it really cuts into my fis...

Used 2006 Aluminum G3 Eagle 175 with a 90 Yamaha two stroke. This boat is in great condition, is super clean and tournament ready. You will not find a nicer used aluminum around. Carpet in is good shape. The reason for selling this boat is I have upgraded to a Ranger otherwise I would be still fishi...

I just got my new 2015 Ranger Z521C last week from Ranger and the crew at Cabela’s (Glendale, AZ) rigged my Mercury 250 Pro XS TM and my Motorguide TR109 for me. They had it ready in two days and then it was off to A&M Graphics for my Bridgford wrap job. Andrew and the crew at A&M Graphics a...

Just got back from a couple more days of practice for our upcoming FLW Rayovac Series event at Lake Havasu. The water temps are slowing climbing with temps reaching 56 degrees in the afternoon. Two weeks ago it was only 52-53 degrees so things are looking up. We had nice calm weather on Tuesday with...

I just got back from beautiful Lake Havasu and had a great time fishing with my dad. I figured I need to try to get out there to practice before the FLW Rayovac event in 4 weeks. I have been waiting on my new Ranger Z521C but it will be a couple of weeks until it arrives and then it will be crunch t...

Started the New Year in the fresh Arizona snow with my twin boy’s. This is the first major storm of the winter and it was much needed. We went up I-17 North toward Flagstaff to about 3000ft elevation entering Prescott Valley when everything turned white. Funny to see people just pulled off on the si...

As the Holidays near, this is the time when families spend time together sharing gifts and memories. What better time to create memories than out on the water fishing. Just wanted to post this reminder since a good customer of mine (Larry Cherish) sent me these great pictures from a recent outing at...

Sorry for the delay and the Mc Spin is a very good bait this time of year. Because of the falling water levels in the late fall to early winter, bass tend to suspend a lot and are in many different water columns. The Mc Spin comes in two sizes like 1/2oz and 3/4oz with a many different colors availa...

I went to Bartlett Lake for the first time about a week ago and had a great time! Pretty cool to go to a new lake that you have never seen and try to break it down. Just went for a day of fun fishing but I happen to pick a cold windy day. Nevertheless, I caught several bass on reaction baits as I co...

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed time with family and friends. I was very fortunate to spend my Thanksgiving in beautiful Lake Havasu and go out fishing with my dad. The weather was a little chilly in the early morning but quickly increased to the mid to upper 70’s mid day. Water...

I'm going to sure try Mark. I'm trying to get that weekend off so I can help some of my sponsors that will be there and most importantly see all my friends that I miss. I will keep you posted bud!

Well the temperatures are finally starting to slowly cool off here in Arizona but the storms still continue to pass through. The good news is that the shad are starting to move back in the coves and so are the bass. Our local anglers are finding both stripers and largemouth chasing bait in the morni...

Hawg44Hustler, There are know boat inspections for the Quagga Mussels once in Nevada as long as you have your AIS Decal. You maybe inspected on the water for all your coast guard required items so make sure you have them all accessable. You amy go through an agricultural checkpoint once entering bac...

Well it's that time of the year here in AZ and we have been experiencing some pretty bad monsoons. We have had some heavy rain, winds, and dust storms lately that has caused flooding and power outages. We have also had some fellow anglers during local night tournaments get caught out in these heavy ...

This is a great buy on a fully loaded Z521C!!!! I have seen this boat personally and it is awesome. It was just recently professionally wrapped by A&M Graphics so the boat is protected externally. This boat will be at the US Open at Lake Mead in a few weeks so you guys fishing it can check it ou...

These are great aluminum series bass boats that have brought a whole lot of excitmen...

Sent you a PM.

John, I just found out about your father and I'm very sorry for you and your families loss. This is a great loss for all of us anglers that had the pleasure of knowing Boris. I'm not going to lie but this really hit home with me and I shedded a few tears. He always routed for me and watched me grow ...

They should have volunteers at Callville Bay with golf carts to shuttle people to and from. They better have those batteries charged up on those golf carts cause it is a long haul. I may take my mountain bike with me during practice to go from the parking lot to the dock. LOL......

I just got back from two days of pre-practice at Lake Mead for the upcoming US Open and the water level is definitely 30ft. from last year. All of us here in Arizona are very excited about this year’s event and practice has begun here already. I launched at Callville Bay for the two days and it was ...
