Hey Everyone,

If you ever needed a good excuse to go fish Tonka on a Saturday in October here you go. Libby is having a charity fundraiser for Make-A-Wish of MN this Saturday. Even if you can't make it for the tournament, you should make it down for the Awards at 3:00 at Maynards. They will be having a silent auction for items both fishing and non-fishing. I heard that one of Tim's neighbor's donated some 50 yard line tickets to the vikes later in October. I talked to Tim last night, and asked him to get me a list of items for the auction. Hopefully I will get that, and post it under this one. The cost to fish this tournament is $150 per person, or $400 for a boat of 3 people. You make your checks out directly to Make-A-Wish foundation of MN. For more information on this event, here is a link to the flier: http://www.wishmn.org/images/Libby.pdf .

Please consider supporting this event, as Make-A-Wish is a good orginization. I will post updates for the silent auction as I get them.

Here is what I got from Libby.

There are two sets of $90 Vikings tickets that are really really good seats. We also have some Fig Rig rods, a marine band radio, and some Ranger wear. So it is really good stuff. We need some other things though.

She is in school right now, so I don't know what exactly they might be looking for. I would guess fishing equipment that could be auctioned off, with all the proceeds going to Make-A-Wish. First, Second, and Third place are plaques. Call the number on the pdf, and ask what they may be looking for. I am just trying to help get more people involved in a good charity.

There were 12 or 13 boats. Only 1 fish caught. My partner had 6 follows early, and later in the day missed one on a spinnerbait. Everyone saw fish early, but weren't getting hooks into them. My partner had his reef hawg roll, and the fish bumped the backside. The day turned out nice once it warmed up. Water temps were still in the 60's. I am looking forward to possibly doing this again next year. There were some good deals at the silent auction.

      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.
