It's the last KP Derby of the year at Lake Pardee. Come on out and support the fishery for some great fishing fun and raffle. Payouts to 15th place and 1st place is $600 based on 125 paid participants. As always it's a team tournament for the paid adults so you can work together to turn in your...

Mission Accomplished! Good work. Funny how all those males dominate the catch... All trying to impress the ladies I believe. 😍 If you get a chance to go to Del Valle just go to heron bay to the dam as that is where the deep water resides. No guarantees but somebody needs to prove they might...

You should be able to get limits between the ramp and the bridge as they were everywhere for the derby a few weeks ago.

Those California guys at it again! John and Bill are regulars down here. Looks like you were fishing for half pounders from the weight totals.

Come on out for the New Melones 2-Day Kokanee Team Derby on July 13,14. The Kokanee at Melones are plentiful, feisty and fat. Payouts to 15th place and 1st place is $1500 based on 150 paid participants. As always it's a team tournament for the paid adults so you can work together to turn in...

Kokanee season is well underway so why not come out to have some fun and support the fishery by participating in the Phil Johnson Memorial Don Pedro Team Kokanee Derby. All the activity will be at the Blue Oak Group Camping area. We have some side pots for Trout and Kings which adds to the fun...

Now that the dust has settled from Pardee and the stories are turning into legends the last Kokanee Derby for Kokanee Power is in another week at Stampede Reservoir August 4th.* I'm guessing we'll see some of the same faces from Pardee and the venue is spectacular with a lot cooler temps.*...

Good to hear Tahoe is kicking out the kokes... if it wasn't for the ridiculous off-site and inconvenient inspection times if opening at 8AM... I would love to fish it. Geez the bite might be over by that hour. Why they don't do it at the ramp I will never understand. How's the size on the...

Glad you made it and placed as well for cash... it was a warm derby day but we had fun out there as usual. Rachel and I just missed blind bogey but Jenna placed 3rd in the juniors so she was happy. We have two more derbies left this year.. Stampede and Shaver Lake. Actually you placed 6th...

Just a heads up that we are bumping the start time for the Pardee derby to 6:00AM instead of 6:30AM. We have plenty of light and time to be on the water at Pardee and this gives everyone an additional 30 minutes of fishing. We'll still have the Sat morning sign-ins up until 6:30AM. We'll be...

Most Excellent Mark! As I recall it was out of the box thinking that worked for you that year with your 1st place finish... Rachel did well for herself as well but now she's my greenhorn and out of the junior leagues. You and JT are ringers for sure. Will you be up there Friday night? If...

The Kokanee season is now approaching its peak and what better time to take on the challenge at the Kokanee Power Pardee Lake Derby this Saturday July 21st.* *All proceeds as always help support the fishery and associated projects. You can sign-up online here...

19 to 21 will be the max.... Unless I see one on the ruler that is larger.

Finally got out to Berryessa for only the 2nd time this year. While it was a rather slow day we kept 7 fish, let a few smaller ones go and lost a handful along the way. It's the biggest fish I have caught for July at Berryessa with 5 slugs in the 16.5 to 18 inch class. Of the 7 we kept it...

That's a great looking fish in that photo. Will be there tomorrow, what boat are you in cliffpaul2. I will be in a blue Boulton with the entire family it appears. Kevin

Tks Dave... Never knew they had pad replacements so that is nice. It doesn't appear they sell the clips alone outside of a bundled package it I should have a pile of expended ones to repair Kevin

What's the source for the yellow release clips?... It's been something I have been wanting to locate for a while.

Melones, Pardee and Berryessa have all popped a few or probably more as the weather has been great just to get out. You may have to compete with the feisty trout competing for your offerings.

Way to go Brian! I'm guessing you'll be back to break your record next year.

I Finally decided I better give up Kokanee for the year before the fins rot off those Kokanee. It took me a day to revive some old salmon tackle from years past when there were salmon in the river. No better way to plan a trip than to hook up with Captain Al to refresh me on the techniques...
