LOL, some musky fishermen must have heard we wanted to stock muskies in it and went out prefishing, i don't know how else this could have happened

It was me. I was out scouting spots and stopped for lunch - a round goby and zebra mussel sandwich with a eurasian water milfoil salad on the side. Guess I spilled some. My bad...

In all seriousness, sad deal that zebra mussles are in yet another lake.

Judging from what I'm seeing at my cabin, which is now an infested water by virtue of its connection to Pelican Lake, the biggest vector for invasives isn't 'Nomadic" muskie fishermen - it's locals leaving the lake with a livewell full of sunfish because they're too stupid and lazy to think ahead, bring a cooler, and too cheap to drop $3 on a couple bags of ice...

We all know that Lake shore owners don't just have the wife meet em at the landing; ram the boat on the trailer and scream "Hit the gas Ma" dragging water and weeds down the road. Nope, its not that its Muskie fisherman first then all other interloping anglers.

Now your gonna be tagged by the state as a threat to untainted lakes. (more to come)

I'm sure the cooler was full of VHS water that many Muskie anglers use as a vinaigrette for their side salads of flowering rush, purple loosestrife and Chinese mystery snail.

One anti-Muskie advocate working very hard to stop the Muskie stocking on Tetonka made this statement about the invasive White Perch while convincing the city council to stop the effort.(Taken from the Waterville City Council minutes)"On a couple of the lakes up north where they have had muskies in there the white fish and sucker population is gone. So then the next thing is yellow perch or white perch which in the lake here have a fairly good population of perch and stuff."

I'm just wondering if the Muskies in that lake recruited these invasive white perch he's talking about or if he has no idea anything about any of the fish in that lake other than Pike.

Furthermore the hypothetical notion this individual had about suckers and whitefish was discussed between himself and Mr Knapp less than a month before and he was told none of this has ever happened to the knowledge of the DNR. I asked him what lake this happened on because we need to know; he had no answer other than they were up north.

Actually no-one has heard from him other than him leaving smart @$$ remarks on the answering machine of the Chapter 54 MI President. Just the kind of dedication to the truth and carrying out the duty's that are their charge; as we all expect from our elected officials.

Its all about the invasive species; not about Muskies wink Right

I guess I'm kind of naiveblush I didn't pick up the sarcasm in your previous post. Who are the anti's anyway, lake association or MDAA members. What is there main problems with muskies. They just don't want the added fishing pressure on these lakes or what?

      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.
