Poll question: If new to Clear Lake and needed some one to lead you to victory. Who would you follow? I choose these guys due to past places they took at Clear Lake.

You gotta follow those guys!

BTW, if any one out there would like to explore some new areas on the lake, there's great access all along the north shore. Obviously, State Park is good. County Park is just up the road & looks to have reasonable access to Long Tule & Quercus Points (I've never fished either, but they look good on the map). 6th Street in Lakeport can lead to Willow Point or Berger Bay. If you follow the road (don't know the name) that fronts the lake, you can find vacant lots to hit Big & Little Rocky Points (my favorites). Rodman has a primitive launch ramp, & there are public ramps in Nice & Lucerne. All are worth a shot. There's also access in the Kono Tayee area, although I've never fished it & don't know exactly where. Just beware the No Trespassing signs. They take them seriously in Lake County (I just about got arrested last year picking up my partner on Saturday PM).

I'd love to see everybody weigh-in a 5-fish limit each day (just so my 10 fish weigh the most). It's a great bass lake.

I would normaly vote for Rob due to his
years fishing the lake but I would have
to vote for Mitch this time. He is like
the energizer bunny. he keep fishing and
fishing and fishing.

LMAO :) :)

It looks to me like his poll is based on track record:

Andy has won more Opens and Invites then anyone
Mitch has done well in the last Open and Invite
Todd I believe has won a few SCBBBC TOC's there and is allways a silent threat
Rob can bust this thing wide open and also did good at the Open
Mark Serrano won the Open in 2001
Catchem Caro is just that, but there probally wasnt any spots left on the poll

Hey now, I really never fish Clear Lake much. 2, 2 and a half years tops. What's funny is I have only fished one day at clear lake that wasn't a tournament day. That was the day me and John fished it coming back from Shasta and we got skunked, go figure. I like the lake, it treats me pretty good, but I'm no expert by a long shot. So don't follow me, follow someone else!

one of the following will win tis tournament,


John Lake
Todd Iwamoto
Andy Parsons
Kevin Marcheschi
Jeff andress
Joe Castro

remeber this at the end of the tourney, i went to a psychic today!

lol

get your money back dude .... you got ripped off!!!!

I'm going to have to put my money on Deren. He always seems to be into fish and he's probably fished Clear Lake more than most of us, especially since he used to have a boat.

Fish n' sticks or whatever you're calling yourself ;-) I'm giving you a vote of confidence here! Better not let me down!

I guess there's a reason I haven't been voted on...I've never won at Clear! :-)

Soooooo sad but who's to say I'm not ready for a 20+ limit...or two!

Todd

hopefully i get into a bunch of fish like you did a few years ago todd. that would make my year, hell even if i got into the fish me and bogges got into last year.

I also think your due for a win Todd.:)
I'll try not to lose sight of your reddish
Toyota Tundra with your Buck’s Bronco kickboat in back.

Had to get you on the board Todd,you da man.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Bill and Joe. I'm always keeping an eye on you guys! I know I have learned a lot from both of ya! Thanks!

Todd

I'm sure I would do well to follow anyone on the list and many who are not but I have my own favorite.

Paul set me up a couple of years ago when I hadn't been bitten in a day and a half of fishing. He gave me some baits he was getting bit on while we were on the water (Senko's, which I had never heard of) with four hours to go. The result? Two fish, a 6.45 and 7.03, the second and third largest bass I have ever caught. And this while we were fishing the tourney.

Talk about being a selfless guy and a teacher! I know he thinks this was no big deal but I'm not going to let him forget it!

I follow FIT every place he goes, actually he also follows me every place I go too. HAR HAR HAR


Clint I was sure happy to help you out and would do it again for anyone.

FIT (AKA Paul)

PS Here is a tip for ya, I hear drop shotting a chartreuse buzz bait in a foot of water has been very productive

Dude, that's why you are special, always willing to help out a fellow angler.

I about fell out of my chair when I read your "tip"!

Trust me just throw that setup all day long and I am sure you will turn heads at weigh in. LOL


FIT

Fishin with Mitch over the years I know what he's capable of, besides if I dont vote for him he wont wanna car pool with me anymore! yuk,yuk,yuk.

oh that Mitch...lol he can catch fish we have seen that

Speak of.. Hey John out of the 54 members
of B-n-T how come we don't have any women
in the club. I think we need to promote new
membership to some local tubing clubs for next
year scedule. :)

Gene :)

he had a prospective female member at middle river ready to go a few months back

Well, she was a prospecive female...but a club member? I think she would fit right in with a lot of our top sticks; she DID talk a lot of smack!

Bro,how could ya tell what she was talking with no teeth!Har

Hey, be kind, she was only missing two teeth. I think.

IFISH say's,

she certainly looked like she had fisher-woman potential huh ?! HA maybe we should see about gettin her to fish with us, although, i bet she's quit FISHY herself if you get my drift.....

IFISH

Lucky for the rest of you, I ain't fishin' it this year.
<sticking tongue out> Nyaa-nyaa </sticking tongue out>
I'll be at the Open though. :)
