How 'bout a list of those 'must haves' for next year? My list would include:

Shumway Flasher

Shallow BullDawg

Double D Crank(do they make one in RED?)

Doc Topwater

Squirrely Jake 8"

That just for now, I'm sure the list will expand after hitting a couple musky expos - gonna try to hit both of em in the Metro area this year.

I will be buying some more Hellhounds. Bought one at the end of the this season and really like it. Love the action it has when it sinks. Also want a few more Bull Dawgs and I need some more top water lures. Can't wait for the Muskie Expo next month. Going to need to put in some overtime at work to pay for it all. laugh.gif

I'm going to get a couple more of the Buchertail Mogambo combos in different colors. I never used one before and caught a musky with it the first day this past November. I also had about 5 follows with it including another strike. The tail is all shredded and I had to cut the hooks after landing the fish.

After hearing the all good things about the Hellhounds over the summer I think I'm going to have to put a few in the ol'box for next season. I'm also interested to see the new lure Todd Cleveland of Phantom Lures will have this year. Would like to pick an extreme phantom too. And anything else that catches my eye. I heard Dunwright Tackle has a new lure being interduced this winter, if it's anything like the Dancer, I'll be grabbing one of those also.

I can hear my wallet chewing me out already, at least I think it's my wallet.

Hey RU - Have you seen the new Dunwright in Smokey's catalog? The 'Smokenstein' pattern? You can get it either as topwater walk the dog style or subsurface glider. Very interesting - may have to add that to the list.

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
