I am more of a drop shot guy and the Robo is nice for that. It is more durable, more flexible and the laminated colors are very nice.

On the other hand, the Senko has a prettier Junebug color. Might mean less fish though since fish seem to like ugly.

It would be nice if the Robos floated like the ...

I've got a buddy that swears by drop shotting "Skinny" Senkos wacky rigged. He tears them up, and will always have that on deck. I never thought about drop shotting Senkos because of how heavy they ...

The Senkos that have fallen on the ground in the parking lot at Barrett and have been run over by trucks a few times are real soft.

Wacky rig on a drop shot definitely works.

For the last several years, I would put down the Tokyo rig, but this year just Texas rigged baits with a sinker stop.
I never used a sinker stop with a Texas rig before, but now rig it that way with creature, crawbait or plastic worms.

Every fished a Senko as a topwater? ;-) You'll be surprised what happens if you do it right.


SHHHHH!! Dont let that secret out of the bag! ;)


The funniest part about "secrets" in fishing, is that it's something that was right there in front of you, but because of all the hoopla that occurs ...

I’m pretty happy with 3” and 4” Yamamoto craw. If you like rage craw give Yamamoto craw a try, same lot of action but last longer. I alway loose one craw after one or two bass with rage craw but not with Yamamoto.
As of now I tried with Ned head (recommend 1/10oz with medium rod), wobble head, free ...

Thanks a lot Vinny! I’m glad you got something out of it.

Just to be clear I said above that it was a 1 hour competition and that is true but the video is WAY shorter than that. Just for clarification.

I started the course. Takes a lot of time to complete. I've been at the computer for 3 or 4 days now, a few hours each day and I'm only 50% complete. Tons of info. I have learned a lot so far. Definitely reccommend taking the course, it can only be helpful to you and your passengers, especially in ...

So, for those that don't want to go through a middle man or take courses.

Good for you Vinny.... I don't have a boat, so I don't need the card, but I'm sure it would refresh a lot of things if I did take the course... My Wife, Brother and I took the old United States Power Squadron Boating Course in 1971... It was a very good learning experience, and I never regretted ...

@Winstondry

man, that's a lot of work. Finally passed. Boat US is free to learn/take, whereas a lot of 'schools' come up if you do a search, averaging $40, heck with that, right?

A little bit more About Loveland:
While I was in Sacramento Tuesday I spoke with Carl Demaio's staff. Carl was just about to meet with Sweetwater Authorty directors and General Manager. I had previously met with Payton Galvez at Loveland Reservoir.
Carl has answered every one of my emails for the ...

I passed my test today. Got 6 answers wrong out of 60. Good to go. I learn some things. The test just took a long time.

Hey! Yep, you can definitely kayak at Lake Henshaw. It’s a great spot for a peaceful paddle, and you can even do a bit of fishing while you're out there. Just make sure to check current conditions and any rental or launch rules before you go. Enjoy 8-)


False. Only boats. Too windy, too many ...

I remember them, those are classics. Thanks for the refresh on those lures.

Hi, go here https://www.sandiego.gov/reservoirs-lakes and then you can see the days for those lakes. However, be advised that Hodges is closed on the third Wednesday of the month and they haven't updated the website.

Beautiful trout…..Looks cold…

Those are some beautiful fish, I wish I could make it up there.
Thanks for the post, keep them coming.
