Well here it is a little late, but I figured I would post it anyhow.

We started off the day on Crow in about 60-70 feet of water and had trout from the get go. It wasn't really good at first, a few lookers and a 6#that we iced, but that was about it.

When that sun came out about 10:30ish they lit up like crazy. We hooked into an 10# that we iced, two three pounders that went back, then I hooked into a really, really big one that pulled a houdini on me and got off after a minute of fighting. Then we had a few more misses, I had another hook up on a big one that got off, and my sister wrapped it up by iceing another 5#. All in all probably the best two hours of trout fishing that I have had.

We then went to Nestor and fished for some crappies. I wanted to try some new spots that looked good and were remote, but they didn't produced. We ended up fishing over near the end of Gordies road and were only picking up a few now and again. After about 20 more holes we finally found them and it wasn't until 3:45 until we really started catching crappies. We ended up with 24 between three of us in two hours, but they were all 12", except for 4.

All in all not a bad day, I had the most productive trout days ever, but also one of the slowest crappie days this season. I guess that sometimes will happen when you are trying new areas.

Take Care Guys and Good Luck Fishing!!

ATVs are the plan as of right now. But we are bringing one sled just incase. From what Robin says ATVs are the way to go as of today.

What days are you going to be there? We will have to have a beverage or hook up on the water.

Not alot of snow, By now it should be easily navigable by fourwheeler. We are heading up tomorrow and that is what we are going to bring. Lots of water on the ice though.

Take Care and Good Luck Fishing!!

      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.
