Congrats. Two years ago I made up some excuse to go home and fish and brought my gf with. We caught a few bass on a beautiful night. Then on one drift I caught a nice pike that was in the slot. That got my confidence up enough that I said we'd do one more drop. I took us out to do the drift and shut the motor off and told her to drop it. She turned around and opened the bail, and when she turned back around to sit down, I was on bended knee, and SHE SAID YES! smile.gif

The sun set while she cried and the full moon rose. We drove over to a cabin and there was champagne ready. She didn't know it, but I happened to know her best friend was back from UW-Mad. and we celebrated over there. Great fishing and like has been said, the catch of my life.

First date was fishing, proposed to her while fishing, even went fishing the morning of the wedding. Honeymoon had a little fishing for me, but not her because she gets sea sick on the ocean.

But, it is hard to get her to go out with me now. She is awful busy. I'll keep working on her. grin.gif

congrats again gonefishin....

Well....2 weekends ago, I got married outside, basically on the ice. The plan was to have it on the ice, but where we were having it, the ice wasn't safe enough yet, so we had it on the pier right over the water. It was chilly that day, but it was outside in winter...It woulda been on the ice, if we woulda had enough. When I get the pics put online I will add a link. We got one of us holding a pike some guys had caught before we got to the site. Pretty sweet shot.

SO, now you gotta get married on the water also!!!

Congrats!!!!!!

I just got engaged too.

We'd like to get married at Itasca state park. My fiance' says that we'll have to do some muskie fishing after the ceremony and get pics of us casting in our wedding duds.

I got lucky again!

Congrats gonefishin! What a catch! smile.gif

I didn't propose to my wife while fishing, but we went camping & fishing for our honeymoon. And we enjoy fishing together, alone or with the kids, whenever we can. And I even got her hooked on deer hunting. Best all around partner I could ever wish for! grin.gif

All the best of luck to you and your soon to be new bride!

    • 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.
