Well the boat touched open water for a few minutes. The lake was down 14 feet since last winter when I was out there.

We couldn't get the boat to float off it was way to shallow. Temperatures were also at lovely 5 below zero with winds gusting up to 25mph. I stuck one fish off shore it felt good to stick a fish.

We still had a good trip out there I will be checking on the water levels for march.

We release 99% of the smallies we catch and that was over 800 last year. The smaller 12"er's are fabulous. We were able to Fish the mississippi well into January catching 4 pounders, not to mention walleyes too. If your into the soft water fishing there are many areas to fish on the river, from boat or shore.
good fishin

You got my full attention. The mighty MISS sounds to good to be true for mid-winter blues. Where at? Hows the fishing now until April. It's not froze?

I here open water and I'm just like my lab when he knows were going to go and shoot some rooty's.

I would love to here all the info needed to take a weekend trip. Greatly appreciated!!!


JP that would be fun we could go test out some of the Gary Baits!

Guy's!!! someone find smallie some open water for everyones mental health at Northeast. Every time I stop in for a morning cup of coffee this kid is bouncing of the walls to hit some open water. He's like a high strug pointer sitting in a dog crate right in the middle of a rooster pen.
Please, find this guy some open water...
By the way, if you in the area stop in at Northeast in the morning for a cup, if Kent is there then walk down to McDonalds and get the coffee, he makes the strongest coffee in the world...

Hang in ther Smallie.
My wife is ready to send me south until I find an open lake. My kids don't think it's fun any more to have beanie-babies pitched at 'em on the end of a piece of yarn and have Dad yell "Fish On!" when they grab it. The dogs, however, might get a hoot out of me trolling one of the cats through the living room.

A friend of mine went there this weekend and pounded the walleye’s. The only thing he complained about was that the smallies would hit it if you got down in the rocks. Sounds like it might be right up your alley.

On another note I have my rod in my hand at night and flip and pitch to various things in the living room, entryway, and even to the sink in the kitchen when I watch TV. Try this and it will help. I’d try the toilet, but if the wife caught me reeling that dirty water back across the carpet it might be the end for me.

Give the river a try, but keep in mind that that current in a real force and it takes some weight to keep on the bottom. I’m not supposed to tell but try up by the ****. Good luck.

    • 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.
