BLB...

I was in the boat with Perch Jerker on Mille Lacs Saturday evening and he said that you guys hit a rock in the river a little harder than anyone would want to. Hope everything is okay. We ended up getting the dollar fish in the Fall Frenzy get together up there when I netted a 27" eye for Perch.

That went 24" and 8lbs. J/K - I wish. No it was 20 1/8" long. No scale, maybe around 5lbs. Thanks for posting it BLB. Sweet pic though with the yellow on the leaves and the markings on said beast. Gotta love fall time

EBass, that is a hog. I couldn't see the photo at work but wow. Glad I checked back.

BLB - It was quite the adventure out there. I am glad Perch stayed out deep when we were under power. We were running 49-50 mph through a pretty decent chop out there at times. Wouldn't want to hit a rock with his boat. I was holding on tight with the white knuckles, never gone that fast in water like that before. I figured things out and had a great time out there though. Just have to absorb the bumps the right way and it turned out to be pretty comfy.

After seeing that photo, it makes me want to get out on the river after some hawgs though. I haven't had the opportunity to really fish smallies this year, but now looks like the time.

The one I just posted? or the first pic in the thread on page one? The one I just posted was my buddy, he got it on s 1/4 gumball white jig head and a 4inch power grub lol. The 20 incher I got on the first page of this thread was a jig head and 7.5in tequilla sunrise worm.

I wouldve believed you if you didnt say "J/k". cause that looks way bigger than 20 inches/5lbs.

Here's a pic from my last open water trip. A nice fat 4pound 12oz smallie taken on a crank in 4 FOW on 11/3/07. My partner and I boated 35 smallies, a few largies and a bonus walleye on cranks and tubes. Water temp was 44. What a nice way to end the season. Time to winterize the boat and start dreamin' about next year.

I'm jealous! Here's the only bass caught on my trip to Banks Lake (eastern Wa) last weekend:

Fortunately we did land some Ok walleye so my one lone bass wasn't all we caught. smile.gif

    • 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.
