bpm2000 Funny might not have been the right word choice. Dont get me wrong, I am not knocking that one bit. :) I fish out of a kayak as well :wink: I am just raising a point that its not the boat and equipment as much as the great fisherman who would like to fish this event that might not be able to...

Josh St.John

Don maybee we should all get to togther do a road trip to save money and fish out of rental Aluminium boats. That would be funny. We can bring strap on trolling motors and milk containers to snand on. :lol: Josh http://www.thewiredangler.com/

Josh St.John

I am not so hot on the Idea. I donâ€™t think it is a good idea to keep changing the rules so often. Especially if people have allready signed up and paid for the event; (Kind of a, oh yeah by the way we made another change!) Not good. I think youâ€™re going to have a lot of interest lost in your eve...

Josh St.John

Sounds refreshing, on a hot day across franks!

I have been keeping my gas tank less full to get up and out of the weeds at clear Lake. To bad the weeds are just getting going.
Wait until the water drops another foot or two.

I was sure wanting to get in on the next one as well, Now I do not think that will happen.
Pedro would have been a better route $500.00 entry fee maybee.

Switch those two around and your on to something.
It is clear because of the weeds.
I am loving the clear water.
The south end is starting to green up a little but nothing like the last few years.

I am a camera boat and I will be fishin tommorw night.
I am going to leave some spots alone for a few Sonoma yocals that are fishin on Friday Though.

Josh St.John

Even if you had to pay the 10 bucks for a new sticker it is better than the potential ticket for not having it.
Josh

Josh St.John

I will be there as a camera boat. Should be a fun one.
Hopefully it will be won on my new bait, The Snack Size Swimbait.
We will see.

I see only one problem here.
If you buy it you will never want any other boat brand, ever.

I checked out one of the Matt Newman rods This week and they look and feel great. They have a real nice moderate bend to them and they are pretty light as well. They seem like they would load up reel nice. I will be buying one this coming week for sure for a new 8" Hudd rod. Josh http://www.the...

As much as the smoke sucked it made for a real good all day topwater bite with the sun shielded.

I second the Xuron Split Ring Pliers, I can assemble 50 baits in one hour with these things.
This was pretty funny to read though.

I was out fishing with Tom Leogrande the other day and he told me about that. I thought it was pretty funny myself, The guy does have a heck of a track recod though. I lost a really good small mouth last year on berryessa because I tied my crankbait on the wrong rod (my frog rod) on accident because...

I guess you got the action just right on that retrieve!

Dip dye works good, just dont leave then in to long They will melt and get sticky.

I hit a 3 footer on Clear lake 3 years ago compressed my lower spine and did not work for 2 months. Sooner or later I knew I would find a reason for a front deck seat. Broken foot of coarse

I swear by the stuff. I always lube up my knots on any floro. I have had the same thing happen one time when I used some Maxima floro one day 3 times in a row. I broke off a fish as well. hopefully just a fluke.

The senko bite has been one of the most consistant things going up there in the last couple months, that is for sure. I just hate fishing that slow it drives me insane. My favorite has been green pumkin.

You can also get another 3 blade prop with a different pitch to it.

It's still only april, we got a lot of nice weather early this year. If you think back a few years ago it was still cold and rainy this time of year. The weather has just not been as stable as in the last few years. Last year it seemed like every fish in Clear lake came up at one time. http://wireda...

Josh St.John

My lower end went out on my boat a couple weekends ago up at clear lake,funny thing is my bank acount has more money in it now with the boat in the shop.

Josh St.John

You got me then!

Josh St.John

There is a small hole in the front of your motors lower end this operates your gauge, it probably has something stuck in it.

Josh St.John

Greg please e-mail me with your info and I will get in touch with you next time I am in Kellsyville. I have seen a lot of the smaller stuff, I think it is great but I am thinking of somthing that will be able to pull off 40 or 50 mph. The word record is somewhere aroud 70 for an electric boat. I am ...

Josh St.John

I have found electric motors that will put out more horse power than an out board does,I would say the biggest hang up is just cost of the electronics to do this project. When you take the weight of a power head and 50 to 60 gallons of gas out of a bass boat you have a lot to work with for a big gro...

Josh St.John

I have been thinking over the last few years about building an electric powered bass boat motor and I think it is time. What I need is a dead motor with a good lower end. The entire power head will be removed and replace with a vertically positioned electric motor running to the main drive shaft.You...

I keep all of my technuiqe specific baits in Plano boxes, all my loose stuff I keep in bins from Target, they are abou 14" long 6" tall and 7" wide great for most soft plastic bags to line up in. I always buy a a whole pile of these boxes everytime I go there. There great in the shop ...

Josh St.John

I have the 7'9" small bait rod and it is great for 6" baits

Josh St.John

Trout aka bass snacks, maybe they did not last long!

Josh St.John

Sounds like some loose or disconnected wires. I would check the back of your ignition for the problem with your boat not starting, look for a loose wire. As far as the trim not working from the throttle,probably another loose wire. Since your trim is working from the front you know its not the motor...

I have done well on them up at Clear Lake in the bigger sizes, I used the Shad color but white should work well

Josh St.John

These baits just do this, I know it is somthing they have worked on but I have not tried any of there new baits, I always just repainted my baits. The real trick is to treat the wood and use an epoxie primer most companies do not do this and the water gets in the wood and the paint comes right off. ...

( he was making a turn and hit a wake (nothing he would be concerned about) ) ? I think a lot of people should re examin what there concerns are as far as safety on the water. And if you F#%^ up, man up to it. I am not trying to start a fight just proove a point, Maybee some people are not as safe a...

Josh St.John

One thing I forgot to mention that happens on the Delta specificaly is that once the wake hits the rip rap they bounce back and hit each other, this can cause an uprising that could lift your boat higher out of the water even at slow speeds

Josh St.John

The further out of the water your prop is the more unstable it is, This is even greater if your turning at high speeds, I use my trim a lot through out a run, If I am makeing a hard turn I trim down, If I am heading towards a wake, I trim down. Think of what fins do for a surfboard without them It w...
