Nice looking boat Bob.....congrats.. has alot of standard things with
it...the only thing I would suggest is a 24v t/m if it does't have
one,
nice to have the extra power in the wind...what do you consider a
central CA lake, around Fresno/Bakersfield or Modesto/Stockton? Have
fun
with it and be careful.....

sket

Thanks!

I agree about the trolling motor, but there's no place for a second
battery up front, so what the heck. Besides, if it's blowing that
bad, they close the lakes and kick everybody off the water!

You mean the State of Kalifornia is telling people to stay off the
water when the wind picks up? There's one more reason to not live
there!

I did go
with the universal transducer on the Minn-kota, to use with the bow
f/f, and added the wireless copilot, so the front is clean and
uncluttered with a bunch of cables, etc.

I consider Bakersfield almost local (100 mi), but I don't know of any
lakes in that area. In Fresno, I want to try Pine Flat.

Modesto & Stockton are too far for a day trip for me, but I gotta try
the delta, from everything I've heard about it, it;s a bass factory.

McClure and New Melones are also on my hit list, and I'm planning on
taking lots of long weekends

(never liked working Fridays anyway)

Only a couple. San Luis Reservoir for one. They have warning lights. But
since the wind can go from calm to 50-60 in 30 minutes, they are trying to
prevent Darwinism. There are major wind farms just up hwy 152 from the
lake.

That's exactly what happened to me... drove about 4 hours to get to
San Luis, got there and it was closed!

I think just the main lake closes. The forebay stays open.
