Could you tell me the max reel seat measurement is? Wanna make sure my penn fierce 3 6000 would fit.

@BrawnyCal 6 күн бұрын

I just tried to look up online the exact measurement but can’t find the info. It should fit no problem. My cousin almost exclusively uses Penn reels on the border for monster gar and catfish. I’m using a reel bigger than a 6000 Penn and mine fits perfect.

Are there any dropoffs that are around 4 or 5 feet or more close to shore at this lake. I see when you walked out in the shore it was only a foot or so deep.

@BrawnyCal 15 күн бұрын

At Calaveras Lake there’s deep drop offs on the left side of the lake. The right side of the lake has a gradual drop off. Always be careful regardless. There’s also alligators at Calaveras Lake.

U just turned loose 10 lbs. of good eating fish...... Gut it clean it put it into a pressure cooker, bones and all. Follow simple directions on pressure cooking, you come out with good white fish with no bones, and fine tasting fish....Old people like me know what to do with carp.....Simple trash fish to some, food to others who know....

@rodgergomez1473 Ай бұрын

I happens too a lot of lakes and ponds when there's no water flow through it there's not enough oxygen in there in the summer time so when the water gets hot too hot as no oxygen in it only a strong fish survives this happens every year I'm 39 years old

@BrawnyCal Ай бұрын

Sad to see such a waste of good fish. Thanks for the informative comment. Tight lines!

@DanielLopez-ht4ov Ай бұрын

So what was the reason

@BrawnyCal Ай бұрын

I’m no marine biologist. TPWD said heat wave is contributing to oxygen level changes in the lake. The power plant already discharges very hot water. The combination is when this happens. It’s also a yearly occurrence. Some people are saying this time looked worse than other years. I’m still learning as well.

10 footers. You can get it out there pretty good. Even if you can’t cast far, wade into the water and give yourself a cheat cast to the deep. The redfish here come shallow too though so you don’t need these tall rods. I’ve used 7 foot rods and caught redfish all day.
