I'm over in the East Bay

Thanks for the info everyone. The tabular function is new to me! It's looking like it's gonna be a hot week. Might have to try some night fishing

Much appreciated!

Thanks yeah I keep an eye on forecasts the week leading up to the trip. I was just wondering if there were any localized patterns that tend to get overlooked by the forecasts. Like my local lake has a tendency for winds to kick up in the afternoons.

Hey all I'm planning on making a trip out to Clearlake next week and just looking for some safety tips. I'll be fishing from a kayak and I've heard the wind can get pretty bad. Is there a daily/seasonal pattern to the wind? Any suggestions on where to launch if the wind kicks up? My plans were to launch at the state park and fish around there and maybe make my way down to soda bay. Backup plan was probably Rodman slough or Braito's. I appreciate any info! I'm excited to get out there.

Check out the California tournament trail. It's a pro am setup with a shared weight. Believe the 2016 seasons over though

So this past weekend I took my kayak out to Clear Lake. Pretty much all my fish came on a chatterbait. Here were my observations: - initially had the chatterbait tied to my trebled baits rod: a 3-powered mod-fast graphite rod paired with 6:4 reel with 40lb braid with 12lb mono leader. - hook up ratio with that setup was god awful. - switched the chatterbait to my frog rod, dobyns 735 with 65lb braid and landed almost all - I'm thinking because I was fishing sitting down, and wasn't able to get the leverage of a full hookset that the heavier setup compensated for this.

First time out on Clear Lake

Not the best picture wanted to get her back in the water. d**n you thehooligan for making me pick up the zpi knobs.

I was fishing with a guy who was really good at skipping 1/2 oz football jigs. He said he liked the brakes really loose and the cast control tight.

Thanks! Gonna order a pair

Quick question for you guys with the slim ZPI knobs. Do they come with end caps?

This combo has me playing favorites. Need more steezs in my life.

Lotta nice shimanos on this page! Sweet rods all around too thehooligan how do you like those zpi knobs? I'm debating between those and some black avail wood knobs. Would love something with a similar shape but with EVA foam.

Don't know either! But it feels so right. Thanks man.
