I guess nobody fishes this lake or are keeping quiet. In fact I was there this weekend and picked up a few.

Glad to here you had some luck. Unfortunately I haven't been out much in the last couple of weeks, and haven't fished Ashtabula by boat ever. Too much hunting to get done this time of year I guess grin.gif

Ed,

Yes the perch at the crossing have been fantastic. I caught a 5+ lb walleye last Thursday there. I was gonna get out yesterday but it was too darn cold.

Did you fish sibley or the crossing?

Darn right it is cold. The lake has a pretty good layer of ice on the north side of Sibley crossing today. A little on the south side on the main lake. It was less this afternoon but the ice is comming so get out while there is still water to get onto.

I never have but some people I work with fish around Sutstroms landing from the shore. This time of year you might bump into a walleye or two in there as well as it is usually a pretty good early ice spot.

Nope Nick I think you are the only one that fishes out there grin.gif. I have been too busy chasing deer and working. I put the boat away a long time ago already. Falls have just too much going on for me. Have you been doing ok on your trip out there? I am hoping to be around home some at first ice I plan on wetting a line then.

Jason,

I ventured out there yesterday and was rather disapointed. The whole lake is covered with about a half inch of ice. Only spot open was under the dam. It was worthless to say the least. I have been having excellent luck out there the past month and a half from the crossing. I had a buddy that went out there Sunday and caught a dump load of walleye but only kept 1, the rest were a half inch to an inch too short.

I have never tried that lake ice fishing. This year will be the first. Not sure where to start I guess.

      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.
