ocf- on the contrair!... I dont dare talk any trash this year...I havn't been to waconia in over 25 years.. I was like 10 years old and didn't care all that much about fishing the last time I fished the lake.

The guys to beat will be bass-n-spear and brother...

Now the next tournament on Big Marine.. I will start the trash talking.. LOL

Wow! Deitz, you are my man.

That there makes the event worth showing up for in itself. I really dig Rod Balancers and have used them on heavier poles for years. Thanks to JB Lures and Nature Vision for generously providing product as well.

As always, Deitz, I appreciate what you're doing for this event and all of your work here at FM.

There was a little off-line discussion about the "Deitz Dollar" being put up. Well, I don't know if that's fair to the guy when it's many against a couple. But how about this, we do a little East vs. West for a dollar.

I know the boats of Deitz, Me, Bob Bennett, Jeff Auddette, and Bob Downey could be considered East. Let's make Jason Shade, Scott Shipley, Chris Neisses, Isaac Karow, and Jim Nordlund the West team. We can do a everyone throw in a dollar bet for total pounds of each regional team. The winning team can split up the losing team's dollars.

Sound good?

Sounds good to me, as long as nobody on our West Side team starts acting like Byron Velvick and his "Wesssttt Siiiidddee" comments. smile.gif

Look forward to meeting everyone. Took a youngster out to Waconia last week and we had a pretty tough day for "Wack on ya". Did get a 37" Muskie however. My 2nd ever. She hit my crankbait as it broke the surface after bringing it up from under the boat. She same out from under the boat when she hit. I screamed like a little girl my young back seater told me. smile.gif

See you guys in a couple days.

    • 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
    • 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.
