    Anybody fish Lake Chelan, WA.

    I'm thinking about running up there the second week of November. I have to be on Eagle Lake, Ca the last week of Oct/first week of Nov so if the weather permits I want to shoot straight on up to Chelan and fish slugs (Mac's) for a couple of days. If anyone has or is fishing it, I'd appreciate...

    No fishin so the next best thing

    It was a non-fishing weekend so I thawed out the last three 3lb Eagle Lake Trout I had and sliced them up for the smoker. They're soaking in brine right now. I'll go get the "Little Chief" out in a while and start pumpin some smoke through it to get it ready. Don't know why I do that, probably...

    If you're using a inexpensive (100.00 or less) battery charger to charge your deep cycle trolling motor batteries you might want to read this thread: http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=577470 I can't say it completely suprised me since I thought I might have had a problem a while back...

    Battery Chargers - Suprising differences

    I don't want to start a big debate over this. I can only tell you what just happened. My batteries are one group 24 start/deepcycle (starting) and 2 group 29 start/deepcycles (house). I charged them individually with my $100.00 Shumacher charger that I got at O'reilys. They were out of the boat...

    1985 I6 90hp Jet - Pristine

    Got a call at my Mom's house from a gentleman wondering if I still worked on boats. Seems he saw my name/town on here and figured he just give it shot by calling numbers in the phone book. FYI, I have no problem with that. Anyway, sort of a sad story, he's got this 16' Alumaweld with a 85 90hp...

    Should have gone fishin this morning.

    I sat and listened to NOAA on channel 3 (VHF) until 9:00pm and finally decided that it was probably going to be windy as heck at Lake Sonoma. I set my alarm for 5:00am rather than 4:00am and when I got up there was a pretty good breeze and light rain. It's a little after 9:00am and it's...

    Lake Sonoma, Ca.

    When I was down at Outdoor Pro Shops in Cotati, Ca., this morning I heard a rumour that DFG's marine biologists are studying Lake Sonoma with the hopes of introducing Rainbow Trout, Landlocked Silver and Coho Salmon. I thought about this for a while and I think what they may be really doing is...

    Decided it was time to go Ultra-Light!

    Ya know, I was sitting there thinking about my semi annual fishing trips to Eagle Lake, Ca., and how I've gotten so good at fishing this particular lake that it's really not a challenge anymore. I go up there for a week and have my 4 fish in the first two days and they're fish that I definitely...

    1959 White House Fiberglass Classic - Freebie

    Is anyone interested in this boat. It's up in North East California sitting out the winter like it's done for the past 20+ years. I bought it last October for 100.00 and was going to restore it as a fiberglass classic but I've decided I'm done with boat restorations. I won't lie to you, it's a...

    Winter fishing trip cancelled in favor of fence building.

    So yeah, I've had these plans to go fish Eagle Lake before the season ends on the 31st. I've never fished it this late and was really looking forward to it. However, the weather in Northern California has been unusually dry and I decided to get one major summer project done instead. My theory is...
