I will be diving off it for abs and spearing and also fishing some kokanee and coho salmon in oroville  .. leaning towards the ride 135 after i saw the new seat and the slide track system for down riggers

WTTM!
Paddle before you buy. You'd be surprised at the things you learn by doing so.

The ride seat is nice. I think an extra gel seat pad would make it better, but I don't use one. I may make one Sturgeon run to a place up by Sac before the end of the year. After New Years I will be a little more open. I'm supposed to be working at ISE this year too. Surgeon run would be Sat or Sun this week. I'll PM you if I get out. Not sure if the pricing will be better at the show or not.

Hello Jason!  WTTM!  Give me a shout when you are ready to hit up Oroville.  I live up the hill from the lake.
