Hey, how was the Red Wing fishing? We went to Alma and caught fish, but man, were they small. Had a hard time finding two for the pan. I spoke with some others that were at RW and they said the bite was very poor. Even Dustin ( from that "other" site)had a hard time finding fish. Saw him this morning and all he could do was shake his head. And he makes his living as a river guide. Hope you did well enough to get back the fees anyway. Crapster

Tom, I posted in the Tournament Forum but here I go again. We did well all weekend. We were ninth on Saturday and 2nd on Sunday. We threw back a lot of legal fish on Saturday AM because it was a no-cull tournament. Then we ended up only weighing in 4 nice fish for 9th place, ouch!!

Sunday we hit our "A" spot and hammered them. We boated 2 quick 22 inchers and then I hooked into "the fish" a 60 lb flathead. I fought it for 1/2 hour and finally landed it. We immediately took it in to be weighed but the scale only went up to 50. So a few pics and released her. Awesome fish!! Back to the "A" spot, we had 2 doubles and we were done. All the fish were 21-22 inches. We were done fishing by 8:30 in the AM. The bite was nothing short of Awesome.

Adam got one really nice crappie, so that should tell you where we were fishing grin.gif It was a good weekend for us. I will be back down the weekend of the Lake Pepin Open but I will be fishing the MTT that weekend.

We were jigging Green Scenic Tackle Jigs in 3/8 ounce, tipped with a minnow. Plastics took 2 of the fish. It didn't really matter plastic or not, but the green/chartuese Scenic Tackle jigs were the key.

I am still sore from holding that Cat for the pictures.LOL

    • 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
    • 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.
