Between work, my gf's recent appendix removal, and weddings to go to, I am lucky to get out a one time a week anymore. SUnday I will be out...probably 3Mile...will try hard to report after that smile.gif

How big was your drum Dave? I hooked into a 3lb drum on light tackle slip bobbering for smallies on west boji last weekend...thought it was going to be a huge smallie...disappointed, but man those drum put up a fight!!

I, unfortunately, didnt get out on the water as I was still nursing the girlfriend back to health after her appendix surgery. However, as of today she goes back to work so I should be able to get some fishing in again.

Glad you continue to catch fish and make me jealous of you John! Love the reports though as at least someone is out there enjoying the water on a regular basis!

Big goody, I'd say over 10lbs. Snagged the darn thing, so that made it worse. I bet we fought the devil for 15 minutes or more, between it trying to get under the boat, the darn wind, and the shore. It was fun, but I sure thought it was a huge cat!

Fished the iowa river sunday. Caught 2 eyes and 1 cat. All on frogs. The eyes were a surprise since I was catfishing with big poles and heavy line. Bring on the ice.

    • 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.
