I'd be down to take ya out on the lake if ya don't mind fishing out of a 12' aluminum.  It ain't much but it gets me off the bank.  I don't have a gas motor either...  Just a 46lb thrust trolling motor.  It does just fine out on the water though.  There's not much room in it, but it'll manage 2 people, a small cooler, 6 rods, and a few small tackle bags just fine.  I do however prefer to fish on weekdays so there's not as many idiots zippin around.  Get at me if you're interested.

 
Thank God my father taught me to fish!!!

I got ya message.  I'll call ya tomorrow evening after I get back from the lake.  The wifey and I are headin out to Bartlett in the morning.

  I'm good with the battery.  I've got a group 27 AGM.  It'll push us around the lake all day without breakin a sweat.  As for standing up in the boat...  No prob.  Just not the both of us at once.  lol  I ain't gonna lie my boat is kinda ghetto, but it floats.  I don't have electronics or nothing either.  Just a trollin motor, the battery, some clamp on lights, and a couple of floatation cushions for the bench seats.  As for ya size... No worries.  My boy is just over 300lbs and he and I do just fine in the boat. 

When I call ya tomorrow we'll talk about where & when we're going, and what ya need to bring.

Mister Mystery...

 I was busy finishing up my classes at Rio Salado and then we had a death in the family so I was MIA for a while.  Finally got myself into a new vehicle so I've been hitting the lakes pretty regularly again.  Bartlett has been treating me well with lots of numbers.  I did well at Rosy as too... Nothing over 6 lbs though.  I also took a week off and went up to my cabin in Alpine and fished Big Lake for some trout.   

Sorry to hear that the gas prices have been keeping you off the lake.  It's been killing me too.  I've still gotta fish though...  Just been eating a lot of Raman in order to keep myself on the water.  lol

I'll be at Pleasant next week.  I hear Canyon is finally starting to recover so I may have to check that out to see about those trout fed bass as well.  Someone also got a 14lb bass at Rosey so I imagine I'll be heading out that way in the near future too.   I'll also want to check out Fools Hollow soon.  The fish are just starting to move up to spawn there with the water temps finally in the low - mid 60's.   I don't know how I'm going to afford gas for all these trips...  I may have to sell a kidney!  lol

Where are ya headed on 6-20 & 6-21?  If the wife doesn't have me running errands or doing yard work maybe I'll head out with the boat and meet ya.  Keep me posted.

Thank God my father taught me to fish!!!

faci135 , sorry for your loss. that's always hard. Glad to hear someone is getting out to fish though. I'll be heading to Lake Pleasant next trip. That's my usual location because it's closest to home and offers so many species to fish for. Target date is 6-20,21-08, but not written in stone yet. Let you know when date gets closer. Last time out, 4-05,06-08, at Bartlett my largest fish were a 4# Largemouth and a 5# channel cat. My partner's largest were two 3# largemouths.
