Waters north of Hwy 10 open this weekend for muskies, can't wait! So who else is gonna go 'lunge fishing?

I'm probably gonna hit the local rivers and fish near the dams, hoping they'll still be hanging from the spawn.

Sounds like a good weekend for me to stay off Yellow Lake huh? What with all you big fish hunters and those maxed out fishin' rigs and all?

I would be more concerned about the pleasure boaters or the walleye boats than I would about muskie boats. Muskie boats take up a pretty small percentage of the total boats.

You've never seen Yellow on the musky opener. eekgrin

Let me guess, a massive flock of mudducks descends upon Yellow L each musky opener! grin

All to catch a fish dumb enough to eat a 2X4 with hooks in it... wink and I still have trouble catching them! cry

Heading over to the in-laws place in Iron Cty and hitting a small lake and hopefully the Gile on Monday. Pitching my all-time favorite early season bait, the blue/white #11 floating rap smile

I just made plans to hit Old Abe flowage early AM, then will hit the local rivers in the afternoon/evening - sounds like the weather should be very nice to fish in, hopefully the fish are active.

How was the opener for u guys? Mine was pretty good at least to me. Yesterdat spent nearly 13 hours on water with nothing to show except for strike in breakline 15 fow but dunno if its muskie for sure. Then fished on holocombe today fir first time. Boated low 30s right at boatside. I was snap, pause, pull jake till I let it rise right by boat then out of nowhere muskie smashed it.. And bad early hookset on nicer fish on shallow invader. All fish came from 10 fow or more. Holocombe become white bear lake in evening with all disrespectful pleasure boater so left earlier than expected.

      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.
