Nah!! Fishing is lame.

When I would go fishing off the wharf in Santa Cruz with my father as a kid we would use a crab net to land fish that were too big to just pull up.

Don't tease us LBH!! Give up the funk

Beautiful fish!! I feel sorry for all you guys that see snow in the winter. :'(

Even though you didn't kill it, it sounds like a very productive weekend. Good on ya for sticking with it and keeping a good attitude. Titelinez!!

Life is too short to hang out with people that aggravate you. If he doesn't appreciate what you have to bring to the table then why waste your time?

;D ;D ;D That has to be one of the funniest things I ever heard! Agreed and seconded!! That is just classic. I wish you had a pic of that one LBH.

The look on your face says it all. Congrats on a new PB. Hopefully there will be many more to come.

Hi mudcatwilly. I'm also planning to hit the delta in the next week or two. Please post back up after you trip and let us know how it went. What worked...what didn't...ect... Thanks TL

Sleep is overrated.

Hi Riggin, Looks pretty good so far. Whoever is maintaning the site should really work on the layout. For instance, I get a scroll bar at the bottom of all the pages. It's kind of annoying to have to scroll left to right just to see the page in it's entirety. I run my desktop at 1024X768 which is pretty standard these days. You should be able to see the entire page without scrolling left to right. Other than that it looks great.

Gas,Grass,Or *** No One Rides For Free

My father definitly got me into fishing. He would take me to Loch Lomond reservoir when I was kid. Then when I was about 8 years old I caught the biggest bass I have ever caught. I think that day really stuck in my head. I was really proud of that fish. ME: casts spinning rod with a worm out from a point on the shore. DAD: Standing 100+ ft away fising for some bluegill. ME: Appears to have gotten hung up on a rock about 6ft out in the water. I give it a few tugs and it comes free. I'm then nearly pulled off my feet and into the water as a big ole female bass scooped my worm up off the bottom. DAD: Looks over and sees that I have something on my line...continues fishing. ME: Starts screaming my head off that I got a big one on the line. DAD: Looks over and smiles ME: Pulls this 5+ pounder from the water and I'm standing there with the fish fully out of the water and just hanging from my line. DAD: Looks over and screams, "Deva!!! Stay right there!!! Don't move!!! I'm coming!! ME: Lets the fish flop around on the rocks not wanting to pick it up cause it was big and kinda scary lookin. DAD: Scrambling over the rocks and running as fast as he can in my direction. ME: Dad, look what I caught!! DAD: Bangs his shin on a rock on the way over cursing under his breath but totally freaking out that his son had just caught the fish of his life. He was one proud Papa that day. I have a picture of that fish still and when I wish I was catching bigger bass i just pull that pic out and smile. For years I didn't fish much but last year I decided to pick it up again. Since then I have been fishing whenever I get the chance. Me and Pops still go fishing every once in a while. Everytime we do I think of that day. He still freaks out when I catch a fish. He almost tipped our boat over trying to get the net next to the fish last time I caught a dinky trout. ;D

Born and raised in Santa Cruz, Ca. I grew up fishing Loch Lomond reservoir with my father which lies in the SC mountains. We also did some ocean fishing, mostly from the SC wharf, sometimes we'd rent a boat and fish the Monterey Bay for rock fish. I have since become a bass maniac and don't fish for much else in fresh water. I still fish Loch Lomond but now I mostly fish Lexington reservoir. I recently made it up to the south bay to San Pablo. I'm hoping to get familiar with more freshwater lakes and reservoirs in the near future. I want my next big reservoir to be San Luis. I'm dying to catch me a striped bass.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as ejtaylor822 as far as the wife goes. I try to get to the lake at least once a week. When I can't make it to the lake I'll go fishing off the local wharf which has been happening once a week also. It's never enough

Congrats!! I have still yet to catch myself a drop shot bass. :'(

I think he was joking guys. ;D
