Hunted in northern Washington County. Saw two birds( one hen and one rooster) and a really nice buck. The low spots were wet to say the least. Walked till I had blisters on both heels from my waterlogged boots and then called it a day. Duck hunted the St. Croix river Sunday so no pheasant report.

Well it's wet out there. Saw a few hens on opener. Started off the day duck hunting, and two roosters landed on the other side of the swamp. Right at 9:00 went looking for them and they got up at about 100 yards. Today we got two right at sunset. Pretty tough with all the corn still in.

Three of us hunted near Montevideo and we hiked for a few hours and only kicked up one hen and a rooster that I waxed. It was incredibly slow!! We won't hunt them until the corn is picked.

Wow sounds like a terrible opening weekend! I will be heading home (west central mn) this weekend for some pheasants. Hopefully the crops are coming out. I thought this year would be awesome bird hunting but opening weekend reports dont show that happening. Good luck!!!

Hunted Stevens county, mainly duck hunted but pheasant hunted a little. Didn't seem like too many birds around. We got one and missed another, those were the only two we saw.

I Hunted alone with just the Dog on public land,about 50 miles west of the Twin cities.We got one and saw two more late hatch roosters.I thought that they were hens until they cackled back at me out of gun range.I did not try to hunt the corn but there were alot of birds in the corn.Theres alot of water out there.I was up to thighs crossing spots to get to other cover.Its a good idea to bring spare pair of boots and or several pairs of socks.It will get better as the crops come out of the fields.And only the die hard hunters remain.

I hunted just outside of Sauk Center on the opener. Found lots of roosters, shooting woes left us empty handed. Good dog work though. Made it worth the time. Most of the birds were in the swamp - go figure.

      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.
