The bite was very slow. Water temps 41-44 degrees. Spawn was complete and males had evacuated the shallows due to falling water temperatures. Frost every night and daytime highs in low 60's.

Was out all day Friday and Saturday. Fished the north end by grenville and all of the south side out of the kango ramp.

Caugth 7 eyes on Friday, kept 4. The size was much better this year, all the keepers were from 16 to 19.

Saturday we caught one eye in the morning and one in the afternoon. Really slow. Everyone we talked to didn't catch a fish except one group that said they got a few bobber fishing in the trees.

On the south end we saw water temps as high as 48.5 degrees.

Sunday we went to Enemy swin and saw one boat catch a smallmouth. We went to all the spots and didn't hardly mark anything.

The weather a couple of weeks ago and the cold now have really screwed the fish up. I would wait a couple of weeks before going if you could.

two weeks ago it was 48 degrees in the afternoon on Waubay. I bet if you go this weekend it will be in the low 50s. Should be just about right for some good catching. I just talked to a guide buddy of mine and the fishing has still been hit and miss. The screwy weather they had earlier seems to have screwed the fish up pretty good. If it is slow, think about bobber fishing in the trees on the north end of waubay. it works. Go to the Grenville ramp and hang a left out of the ramp. Go to the trees back by the farm.

Heading out to Waubay area in a couple weeks. Just wondering if there has been any reports. Going to be staying in Webster and using the portables to fish. Bitter and Waubay will more than likely be the lakes of choice. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Don't be afraid to hit some of the smaller lakes and sloughs in the area...the fishing has been good on a few of the smaller bodies of water...

Hit the bait shop in Webster (next to the Hardware Hank)...they will steer you right...

I believe we will be staying at their place there in Webster connected to the bait shop. It will be the second trip out there so as for the small bodies of water we are always willing to investigate. How is the snow out on the lakes? Last year we ended up out right after a big snow storm and hope to stay away from that this year.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
