I was just browsing the internet and I stumbled across catfishconnection Just wondering if anybody has any experience ordering stuff off there and if the HSOforum is legit and secure. I can't seem to find many reviews online, but their products seem like good deals. I would love to save some time and money ordering off of it! And if I'm understanding their HSOforum right, they charge a flat shipping fee of $7.95 regardless of how much you order?

Catfish connection has been a staple for most hardcore catfiserman for quite some time.  Most of the gear we use cannot be found locally so most of it is ordered online.  

 

Another one I would highly recommend is Bottom Dwellers Tackle, he carries most everything and at a reasonable price, plus they buy a lot of the terminal tackle in bulk and pass the savings on.   For example they have hooks that are essentially the same thing as Gamakatsu just with the Bottom Dweller name on it.   I’ve ordered a few times from there and have my things in 2 days

Totally agree with Dtro. Bottom Dwellers and Catfish Connection are the two go to places for catfishing stuff. I have ordered from both and will continue to order from them. the one thing thou is check both site for the same item. I have found that on most stuff they are around the same price but some stuff there is a price difference (example - the Abu Garcia 6500C3 reel has a $10.00 difference between the two sites)

I just looked at Catfish Connections site the shipping rates start at $7.95 and go up to $13.95(standard shipping via USPS) and $12.95 to $18.95 for UPS Shipping. It is based on how much your order totals. there is a extra $6.00 charge for 1 pc rods and rod/reel combos. this is only applied to the order once so if you plan to order a rod it is best to order more then one so you only have this extra charge once.

I've ordered several times from Catfish Connection and have always been satisfied.

I don't care much for their HSOforum but I get their catalog every year and this years is sitting right here on my end table still!

      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.

      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.
