I would like to invite all you cat guys and gals to participate in what has become a big part of my cat fishing season. It’s called the King of the Cats fishing contest. The past few years have been a lot of fun and I look forward in continuing with that tradition.

If it sounds like something you might be interested in, please take a couple of minutes to check out the site and read the rules and see all the pictures of the past winners.

www.kingofthecats.org

We have a few nice prizes this year which includes a package of various items from Driftmaster rod holders, Custom engraved rulers donated by Brad Durick Outdoors, a custom handcrafted fishing rod donated by AW.Wolfram custom rods, and hopefully a few more to be added at a later date.

Best of all is that it’s free to enter.

Thanks and good luck to all the catters this season and hope to see your participation.

There was a pretty close race towards the end. I was getting a little nervous.

You guys better be nervous this year. I have suffered through my last 6th place finish - All you Kings are about to be dethroned. I'm an old retired guy with nothing but time for fishing. I'm setting up the battleship so I can sleep right on the top of my favorite cat spots. I plan on having hooks in the water almost 24/7. I'll probably smell like cut bait and cat slime but I hope to have some pretty KOTC photos to show for the effort. It's time to make some new Kings - Long live the Kings.

I will have a little spare time on my hands this summer as well. I plan on spending a little more time on the water then I did last year. Last year after the middle of Aug. I only fished a few times, due to low water. This year, I will not let that effect me. I got the green light from the wife, to fish much as I want, she don't care, so I will shocked

Looks like the smack talk is starting already grin

I'll have a Geritol on the rocks. Geritol isn't one of those male enhancement things that gives you a 4 hour woody is it? I don't want that to happen -

Hi Gordy - this last month until the cat bite starts is the pits isn't it. I'll be glad when every waking moment is spent chasing cats instead of sitting at this blasted computer talking about cats. I got out on Pool 3 last Saturday with Darren for a couple of hours but we didn't have any luck. Water was low and there was little current flow plus the water was still a cool 36 degrees. I'm hoping this rain and melt brings the water up a bit and warms things about another 5 degrees or so to get things started. Next week looks good if the forecast holds up. I'm hoping to find fish early and get a pattern going so I can get a jump on you guys right away on 1 April. Wear your KOTC crown proudly - I'm after you starting 1 April.

      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.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
