We will be in the area 2nd week in September and I am looking for suggestions.

I would like a reel and 2 spools also. Are they pre or post 1998? Tom

Congratulations on the nice day out with your son and the smile says it all! Heading up to the Trinity this week and won't be out on the Delta until the 8th.

Hi Mar,
That was us in my North River. We had our doubts about Saturday and my son was just getting back from a business trip, but the day was planned and we decided to go for it. The windshield...

Hi Mar,
Sounds like you had a great day on Sunday. We fished on Saturday and it was very hot bite, even though we had lots of rain and wind and a sea lion visit. On Sunday we had a really hot bite...

The tide and river functions are very useful. I agree with the 8 out of 10 rating.

Check out the Mean Chicken website. There is a helpful group of people on the board and several that build there own jet boats, etc.

A Galvan Torque 6 would probably fit the bill as it is light and capable. I use it on my 10'-7 weight for steelhead and it is perfect with plenty of backing and an excellent drag.

I have a 2008 V8 4 Runner and get between 17 combined to 21 on the highway in cruise control at 65, and I can tow my big boat in a pinch with the 7,000 lb rating (13 mpg). No problems at 75K and...

I must say that I have had a great experience with my Simm's Rivershed boots from 2008, which was the first year, and they still had the studded Aquastealth soles. They have held up great with 4...

I came across this old video from 1956 on a site dedicated to Garcia Mitchell. This is as good of a demonstration of the double haul cast as I have seen anywhere....

We are going to be at Henry's Lake next month and would like to do a couple days of guided trips. I think I would like to drift the Madison, but are there any other suggestions or thoughts? Thanks

I just picked up a used North River Commander and I need a bow mounted trolling motor. The 80 Lb thrust in the ST sounds correct, but what else sould I know? How does i-Pilot compare with Autopilot...

I caught several nice Browns on the Trinity last year, but this one had much different coloring, a silver tone and a more streamlined shape. I was thinking it could be a sea run brown?

I was up in the Northwest last weekend and saw a few Hewescraft jet boats for sale and was wondering about them. How do they compare to some of the more well known boats like NorthRiver, Alumaweld,...

I have the Hodgeman booties and the adjustable Force fins and although they are pricey, I think they are worth the money. I used to use wading boots and Caddis fins and what a difference. I tried...

My favorite rod for our steelhead and large trout rivers like the Lower Sac is a 10' 7 wt. Scott 3 with a Galvan Torque T6. It have landed some very nice fish with it and you can cast it all day...

I see where they are changing the Classic Guide jacket for 2009. Does anyone know what is changing? Should I go for a 2008 model as they are on sale now or are the improvements worth the waiting...

We fished last Thursday and Friday and had we had 3 hook-ups per person on Wednesday. Friday was tough going with 4 hook ups total, 2 netted and this nice wild hen came at the last light after a...

You can go to the Ross website and they have a PDF that describes exactly how to determine the vintage. The main difference is that post '98 spools have 2 screws on the back side of the spool near...
