  1. Was up at Bartlett last Saturday. Pretty windy in the AM, calmed by 1 PM. Fished for bass upriver and picked up 10+ on dropshot 5150 in 4" Bloodclot. A few more on a MB 110 in pearl white.

    The lake is pretty low right now. There's some nice beaches up near the hazard buoy before you make the left heading into Jack's Cove. If you're looking for flattys, try upriver and catching some smaller carp on corn/breadballs. Use those as baitfish on some of the sandier flats between the hazard buoy and Jack's cove. If you're looking for bass, there are massive schools of shad upriver, try and match the hatch.

    I have a pretty crazy work schedule so I won't always be available for communication, but I'm happy to commission the league if we can get nine other guys to sign up. The draft would have to be very very quickly.

    I'm more than happy to rejoin this year if this league is happening.

  3. Did some prime NY strips with a coffee garlic rub last night. Along with some sauteed mushrooms, onion, garlic reduced down with a little bourbon and Kerrygold butter. Side was baked potato hollowed out then twice baked with pepper jack, sour cream and green chile (not in the pic). Then also had a visitor cruise by.

    Bravo Americano in Globe is excellent. Best I've had in AZ.

    Last great pizza i had was at East ramp wood fired pizza in Fairbanks while waiting for the mail plane to Bettles to bear hunt.

    It's on the East ramp of airport if you go north. 

    Following back up on this. Went to Bravo both last Friday and Sat night. Stayed at an Airbnb that was walking distance and had enough room for a boat trailer in the driveway. 

    6 of us were there, split a total of 4 pizzas, had some wings (golden/super hot), bolognese, lobster ravioli, and the kobe burger (between both nights). With the 4 pizzas with the Napoli, Hawaiian/Green Chile, Arugula, and the last one was the Toscana. Pretty solid and would definitely go back (reminded me of the Nook Kitchen here in PHX). Had a ton of leftovers which were key for lunch on the boat at Rosy. Whoever did the hiring for the waitresses in there deserves a medal.

    Thanks for the recommendation on Bravo. Looks like there's a few interesting writeups on the owner, cool story. Checking that place out tomorrow, staying in Globe and fishing Rosy all weekend.

    Rent gear. If you want to buy check out Penn Fathom 2 speed 40N for Bluefin. You can catch smaller tunas and yellos on whatever. For top notch look at Accurate, made in USA. Fished with the owner once on a sponsored trip. Dude and his kids were cool.

    Shaping up to be another great year! Got a trip planned for late August with some friends. Can't wait!

    About a 75#er from a few years ago. Our boy Swivelhead is the man though. He got one around 2 hundo last year.

    Great pic! Davey's Locker in the old hood put out some good ones last year. This year, looking to get out via Davey's or south at Point Loma. If anyone needs a ride or looking get out in mid-late August thru late Sept, hit me up. 

     

    FYI, Tackle Direct is clearing out some decent Avet reels. Grabbed a MXL 6/4 two speed for $280.

  7. I'll put my half cent's worth of thoughts in on this. I've purchased my last two Toyotas, new, using the Costco Auto Buying program (2008 FJ Cruiser 6 speed manual and a 2016 Toyota 4Runner Trail Premium).

    Each purchase was with a different dealer (Camelback and Right Toyota) and since this was a Costco referral, I dealt with reps that weren't the 'regulars' on the sales floor. Right Toyota, I worked with Mark Settell and he was great to work with, no BS. 30 min operation and was in and out. Unfortunately, Mark passed a way a couple of years ago, however, when I'm ready to move away from my 4Runner, I'll be using the same Costco Auto Program again. No question.

    Hope this helps and if your kid is looking for a gig in the SaaS industry, have him reach out to me in a PM.
