That looks like a great meal you got going! Rock bass are tremendously fun to catch. I was fishing White Bear, throwing a crankbait for bass/pike, and had a hit. What felt like a 1-2 pound bass turned out to be a 10" Rocky! Those things are the Pike of panfish.

Conditions were overcast and gray and we caught the fish on glow jigs and Berkley Gulp! With no electronics and a hand auger, I drilled 25 holes before we found fish (my shoulders are still a bit sore) so I'm sure you'll understand my reluctance to give up the exact location. Most of the satisfaction for me comes from studying the maps of a new lake, planning my attack and actually catching some fish. I wouldn't want to deprive you of that same pleasure.

Are you seriouse? No picts. of kept fish? Total catch and release doesn't do any good. Selective harvest is good for the resource! There is nothing wrong with keeping fish to eat! Lets try not to be so...

Agreed! Selective harvest is a good thing. Part of the enjoyment of fishing is a good fish fry! Nothing wrong with keeping a few for the pan. Now, trying to max out and fill the freezer or keeping the big breeding stock is another matter entirely. I no longer keep more than two meals worth of fish in my freezer. Heck, they're better fresh anyway and that gives us more of an excuse to fish more often. Balance is the key IMO.

If you go the photo sharing forum and read a post from Rick "No dead fish pics" he explains the rules for posting pictures of fish. It is good to read this instead of risking losing privileges to the site. I would put the link in but I am not able to get that to work.

Dead Fish Pics

Please, no Dead fish pics, stringer pics or pics we assume the fish definitely will be dead shortly allowed.

We do respect legitimate harvest of fish and do so ourselves. We are very high on selective harvest for wise stewardship of our lakes, rivers and streams.

The responsible thing to do on a heavily traveled site like this is to heavily promote Catch, Photo and Release and especially selective harvest which has a CPR theme running through it, with photos in these forums.

Besides encouraging Selective Harvest we also encourage cameras in the boat for better looking photos to be taken. This provides one less reason to keep a fish, the photo proves you caught it and it sure looks a LOT better here and in your photo album.

That is why we will not allow dead fish pics. Besides, those dead fish pictures do not look nearly as good.

Please click the Register link and read the policy before posting.

Thank you very much for your understanding and help in promoting selective harvest and better photos.

      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.
