Blue skies don’t always translate into good fishing
Many anglers are home waiting for the weather to get a little better before venturing out. I've learned through the years that the best fishing will come and go if you wait until it's comfortable for you. This week I was able to sneak out and was pleasantly surprised at the results. Not really expecting to catch much, I was immediately struck while using a reaction bait. Continuing down the bank, I decided to go ...
Cortez, Petra take first at MA tourney

PASSION & PATIENCE
One of the hardest character traits for young people to develop is patience. The task comes doubly difficult for standout high school athletes looking to move on to the next level. That's what makes Kym Gause's story so remarkable. Gause, a 2007 Manteca High graduate and star goalkeeper, has spent the past two years at Modesto Junior College, first as a greyshirt in 2007, then as the starting keeper for a 2008 squad that finished ...
Reflecting on fruitful 2008 hunting season
The 2008 hunting season is coming to a close. My son, Bill, and I had an outstanding year. We harvested seven deer, including included two nice bucks, and Bill took a nice antelope that measured 14 inches. Now all we need to do is wait the required 60 days before having Fish and Game measure the horns to see if it qualifies for Boon and Crocket. With very good bases and good cutters, we hope ...
Final whistle signals kickoff for bass fishing
The end of football season is a time of both sadness and joy for me. As that last whistle blew, there went all my excuses to not be outside working on the yard or finishing other projects around the house. On the more positive side, I'm very excited for the much anticipated spring bite. There have already been a few double-digit fish caught locally which usually is a sign that the wide-open bite is just ...
‘Solidly horrible’ good enough on the links
Leaning over the putter given to me that goes with the bag full of other clubs I didn't pay for and no one wanted, I took a breath.
The Bowling Bulldog
Fresno State junior Paul Hogan, a 2005 Ripon High graduate and Manteca native, is a walking, talking testament to persistence.
Alternative to artificial baits has advantages
I'm asked all the time whether I fish with live or artificial bait. I primarily fish with artificial baits, mainly because most tournaments outlaw the use of live bait. Although fishing with live bait is often looked down upon by competitive anglers, it does have its distinct advantages. I can remember one family vacation up at Lake Shasta where I couldn't catch anything over a pound on artificial baits. Desperate, I went to the local ...
Pondering the importance of Pops
I fished with my Dad Saturday, even though we were separated by two states and a foreign country. The experience was exactly the second time it was cool to have a cell phone while fishing. The first was a few years back when our engine died, and we were drifting helplessly toward those hard rock things that tend to hurt boat hulls.
