Opener?


Recommended Posts

So where is everyone headed on the Opener?

I'll be on the Minnesota river infront of some creek, then up to Washington or someplace around there for northerns or crappies.

12 days, 5 hrs, 24 mins, left

I'll be on the St. Louis, no plans to travel far. But starting off a little lower than usual. Can't reveal my hot spots here but I'm going to give the Highway 23 hole a rest this year and go for those post spawners that have moved well downstream by now.

Depends on weather & which buddies are able to go. Leaning towards Ottertail, if not then Osakis will get a test run, most likely followed by something smaller in the area.

Gonna be hitting two small lakes north of Hutch. Hook and Erie. Both have treated me well in the past, with one of those lakes being exceptionally well. Brother of mine graduates from college on that Saturday, so I'll only get fishing on Sunday. Hoping my brother-in-law goes fishing with me as everyone else in the family is not going. Otherwise, I'm a loaner if in-law doesn't go!

Madison Lake by Mankato is where i start every season. This year we are making a weekend out of it. The first 5 hours of the season we will be on a pig hunt. Depending on how that goes we may switch too chasing "eaters" which we have pounded the last 2 openers.

    • 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.
