saw your post in response to mine on where to head with for good ice and wheeler traffic. Where is Avoca and what good lakes are around there. We where down on Elysian, German and Madison over the weekend, and not much to show for it. Any hints crazy.gifwink.gif

If I had a nickle for everytime I heard that.

Check out the southcentral and southwest forums. Lots of good fishing to be had right now, but it may be a bit of a road trip for you. It's about 4 hours from my place to my folks place in Linwood.

I actually live in the cities. Eagan, a south suburb. Was down fishing around Madison Lake for the first time over the weekend, and kind of liked it but didn't do to well. Looking for some other good spots to go to.

I was driving back from getting my vehicle fixed last night at prime time, there were about 20 houses by the inlet out on Lake Bemidji, mostly portables as far as I could tell. Someone yesterday afternoon put a perm out on the edge of the ice ridge just north of the Paul and Babe statues. They also had a couple of 4wheelers with them. I'm thinking it won't be too much longer. Hubby said when we do finally get the house out there he's going to clear all the snow from the area, he had a bad experience when young of a house freezing in, they had to chop and burn it out. Yikes! shocked.gif Still waiting to put the lines in the water here, wish I could run that big ole auger. I can see it now, auger running and me spinning in circles,feet flying straight out! Catch some fish for me Reelem!

I won't be fishing this weekend either! frown.gif My boy has a b-day party on Saturday so I won't be heading up to the cabin. Scary story about the icehouse! We just bought a new Nils auger this year and I think it's light enough so I can drill my own holes but I got to get out on the ice first!! smirk.gif Tami, break a fin girl (can't say good luck ya know or I'll jinx it crazy.gifgrin.gif).

      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.
