If you have the opportunity why not? Be interesting to see how you do. I know I catch a few bass on spinnerbaits night fishing for muskies in the fall, even very late in the season.

I hear ya. Choice is between giant walleyes on Pool 2 or Bass fishing.

I have 2 spots on the lake I would bass fish that I would focus on.

After fishing the lake with CHM on Sunday I have confidence in deadsticking a T-rig worm if needed.

Would be fishing Pool 2 with a co worker who is a MWC tourney regular and has the Hummingbird 360 and a slew of other hummingbird electronics on his boat.

Want to prove to him that a Bass guy can actually catch Walleyes on purpose. He gives me a lot of grief about fishing for bass.

Either way I will be fishing.........kind of a nice problem to have.

Guess there's only one way to find out how it would be. I don't night fish much, so I won't be trying it anytime this fall! I was out this morning and the temps did drop about 5 degrees. It's down in the 53-54 range now.

I'd go bass fishing this weekend, Walleye guys are always gonna bash Bass guys. Been hearing it for 30+ years from my buddys!

RRR - I almost feel dirty saying this but I would go walleye fishing with your coworker. Sounds like a good opportunity to learn a few things. Granted I've never night fished in the fall but I feel like it would be much tougher than fishing in the day time. There isn't nearly as much fishing pressure on the lakes this time of year so you would probably have better luck hitting the lake when the water is it's warmest.

You are a fishing machine! smile

108 days on the water so far this year.

Sun is coming out now and the rain is gone.

Chunky 17" is the biggest I have to show at this point.

Stumbled into a small school and caught 6 fish on 10 casts with a Redeye Shad

Otherwise 1 one a Buzzbait and 1 on a Jerkbait in 6 hours of fishing so far.

The 17" was bleeding from the gills, cannot figure out why, fish was barely hooked, pretty much like in the picture.

      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.
