Don't laugh so quickly guys. The last time I was on Upper Red, the wind was so bad that ya needed a brick shanty just to keep from getting blown off the ice.
Remember the wisdom of the third little pig 'cause we all know mother nature can sure "huff and puff and blow your house" into the next county. grin.gif

Little fishy swims to the surface, looks at the bait, and smacks it hard.

Got me too, I have witnessed a few shantys over the years toppled by high late winter winds, for a permanent shack, think strength vs. weight on all structural components.

Clayton,
I have pictures of a brick fishhouse complete with a brick chimney.
We put it out on clearwater lake in the early 80's thru mid 80's.
My uncle had access to a product comprised of
marble dust and silica sand. Just add cement, water and bonding agent and spray it on. Ofcourse the masking of the mortar joints was a pain staking process.
Needless to say, we had many curious visitors.
I don't have the knowledge or means of forwarding the pictures via cyber mail but for your entertainment I would be willing to forward them to you via U.S. postal.
Let me know...

Scupper.

I've heard of a brick schmidt house but not a brick fish house. Yeah, I had to look too. A topic like that has alot of "manifold pressure." Literally got sucked in!

      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.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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.
