You just might be a Catfisherman

... if your spousal equivalent sorts laundry by dividing it into three piles; whites, colors and catfishing clothes.

...if your dog, who likes to roll in dead things, gets ill from smelling your fishing gear.

if your in-laws tell their friends that you're out all night because you're a burglar or a flasher instead of admitting that you like cat fishing.

If your doctor ever suggested that you fish too much----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And you told him to get to hell of your boat!

...if while your boat is sitting on the trailer you can't tell that your boat is sitting on trailer.

...if you can't set foot in your boat because there are too many gobs of mud, sticks and leaves, parts of minnows, frogs, and other meaty gray squishballs, pieces of line, rope, and bits of broken plastic, cigar butts, empty beer cans & bottles, hooks, weights, and busted bobbers, rods & reels, bait buckets and coolers, coffee cans filled with cement, filthy towels, lanterns, headlamps, and dead insects of virtually every variety known to mankind, not to mention the thing that's moving under the seat!

...if you find snag-filled, muddy, dangerously unpredictable stretches of river attractive and inviting! grin.gif

and you push all that stuff to one side of the boat at 3 in the morning so you can lay on the floor to get some sleep till the morning run hits.... you might be a catfisherman...

I finally got one! I've been trying to think of a "You might be a catfisherman if..." for a while now.

You might be a catfisherman if, you keep frozen cutbait in your lunchroom freezer at work for those spontaneous after work cattin' trips to the river.

if you bring your date (1st date) down to a "nice" spot on the river in hopes of finding a "kitty" jump out of the truck tell her to grab the beer as you grab the poles as she gives you that "look" and you go what where you thinking? Oh ya that was 7 years ago.

    • 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.
