I tried that but had no luck, seems all the bass clubs that I can find are full. Ive emailed a few clubs and havent heard anything back, met with Minnesota Federation guys that I know (I used to be in Sportsmans Bassmasters in Bloomington) but Im not getting any results. At this point Im just happy to find some guys to fish with. I sold my boat over the winter And will be a non-boater for probobly till next season. Again any information I can get will be greatly appreciated. I a real good hook!

The clubs can't be full as there is no limit. They might have meant that it's too late for this season. Your club membership has to be locked in by the 1st of april. E-mail Jay Green and let him know of what you have been told, he's the president of the MNBF. Jay will get you into a club!!

Ranger, I think Bemidji hit it on the head about the B.A.S.S. clubs being "full" means that they are locked into there tournament season. If you would e-mail me ([email protected]) I could give you some names of people that could possibly help although I am sure Jay is as good as anyone. I was in Vikings Bassmasters last year but couldn't find the time this year. I know they will be looking for people next year. They meet in Maple Grove.

As for fishers of men are you looking for the club or the tournament organization? For the club go to fishfair.com for more info or for the tournament organization go to mnfom.com. I am involved with both and can e-mail info on these as well.

Thanks for all the responses. I have alot more information than I did yesterday. To my understanding the MBF bi-laws allow for a minimum of 6 and max of 30 members to be a club. I could be wrong. I assumed this was the case as to why I havent had much luck. So anyone having luck using tubes? How are you rigging 'em? I originally went to mn bass page for a bass club to join and got 1 response .Enough of that. I like to use a Strike King tube on an Owner or EC keeper hook. I use a glass bead and brass unpegged sinker. Its very versatile. I get the faceted beads in all different colors. JoBee pro hooks with a solid head tube will go through the weeds better than anything Ive tried and the northerns seem to stay off it better.

Where in the by-laws does it state that a club is restricted to thirty members? The only membership info I know of, is the minimum of six paid members.

It is in our club bylaws that membership shall not exceed 30 members. I believe the original intent of this bylaw was to keep the club from getting too large making meetings and tournaments difficult to manage. Now however if a club wishes to hold a tournament with 30+ participants they would have to obtain a tournament permit from the DNR.

If you are looking for a non-federated club the Westonka Bass club has 2 openings for boaters or non-boaters. The HSOforum is http://www.angling.at/westonka There are 2 events left this year you could be part of. If you have any other ?'s let me know.

      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.
