Rrrrroooolll Call! - MN Muskie Expo


RK

Recommended Posts

Roll Call - With the rolled "R" a la Sgt. Schultz from "Hogan's Heroes" (Why is it women don't find the humor in "Hogan's Heroes?" My wife hates the show! What's up with that? Anyhow...)

So who's goin? And when?

I'm going to sneak over there at some point. Be spending most of the weekend in my garage minding the garage sale though. I'm pretty close to the Expo (a mile or so maybe) so stop by and say hello, and hang out and [PoorWordUsage] for a bit. Always fun meeting folks from the boards. (See the Classifieds link at the top of the muskie forum for info on the location/times.)

Hope to see some of you there, or at my place...

Cheers,

Rob Kimm

Not me. frown I've got fatherly, husbandly, and son-in-law(ly) duties this weekend and won't make it down.

Rob, I bet you'll have a mini-Thorne Bros of a garage sale! I imagine your a few years past due on that, aren't you? Fess up... did your wife make you do it? wink

Oh, Hogan's Hero's is a classic! It's definitely one that females just don't seem to get. "I see na-thing... na-thing!!!"

Hey Scoot -

Nah, the BOSS didn't make me do it at all. Honest. smile Just sitting in my basement one day looking up at the lures hanging from the floor joists and was forced to admit I had way, way too much stuff. Plus was just plain running out of room in the fishing cave downstairs (which is sad - it's a big room). A lot of it is just redundancy. Guy only needs so many 10" Believers or Burts. Plus I have tackle boxes and bags I don't use and a bunch of rods... It was just time to thin the herd a little.

Hogan's Heroes, the Three Stooges, and Monty Python...some things just require a Y chromosome I guess.

I don't think I will make it. I am running into the same problem you are having in the man cave. I only take about 12 lures with me anymore anyway.

Rob,

I liked your down to earth perspective in ODN this past issue. Thanks for clarifing what it is we are really talking about.

Come to think of it my wife hates Hogan's Heros too - I always thought there was something about her that just plain wasn't right - I guess she can't help it. Regardless, I'd take Klink's secretary as net man any day!! whistle

I'll probably stop by the expo on Friday afternoon and will also try to hit up the garage sale. I spent all winter wittling crankbaits so now I have about 2 dozen of them made up and I just convinced myself I don't need any more stuff...PERIOD. Oh well, the basement isn't finished yet so I have lots of floor joists to fill up right!! smile

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • 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.
    • 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.
