A little humor. No offense will be taken I hope.....kind of an inside joke we had on our fishing trip..

Subject: Fisherman vs US DNR

The conflict between a Fisherman and US DNR set to the tone of the movie "A Few Good Men".

Fisherman: "You want answers?"

US DNR: "I think we are entitled to them!"

Fisherman: "You want answers?!"

US DNR: "I want the truth!"

Fisherman: "You can't handle the truth!!!"

Fisherman (continuing): "Son, we live in a world that requires walleye as a source of food. And those walleyes must be brought in by people with elite skills. Who's going to find them? You? You, Mr. Warden? We have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.

You scoff at the fishermen and you curse our lucrative fishing tactics. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what we know: that while the cost of fishing with results is excessive, it produces fish. And my very existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, brings in walleyes! You don't want to know the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at DNR meetings ... you want me in that boat. You NEED me in that boat!

We use words like lindy rigs, money fish, jigging, are you snagged and fish-on. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent locating walleyes. You use them as a punch line!

I have neither the time nor inclination to explain myself to people who rise and sleep under the very blanket of fish revenue I provide and then question the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a rod and drop a line. Either way, I don't give a (Contact Us Please) what you think you're entitled to!"

US DNR: "Did you catch that limit in Canada?"

Fisherman: "I did the job I was hired to do."

US DNR: "Did you catch that limit in Canada?!"

Fisherman: "You're goddarn right I did!"

Awesome! Simply awesome! I've seen the movie enough times that in my mind, I'm hearing the voices of Cruise and Nicklaus recite your version! Thanks for the laugh! You should put this in the open water forum to be enjoyed by all.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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

      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.

      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.
