Better Halves and Ice Fishing

Ok maybe I'm just a little different than the rest of you but so far everyone was writing ways to get their other half to like what they do. Me on the other hand enjoy my time fishing by myself or with a couple other beer drinking boys, who all enjoy a good fart or a loud belch. Yeah you need to share activities with your wife/gfriend, but thats why they invented restraunts and date nights.

Last winter I got the big question, "how come you never take me fishing with you???" Well sweetheart I don't know

I guess I just never thought you would like it. I thought to myself....what should i do??? To make a long story short, I picked my day perfectly as for weather goes. Yeah you guessed it 8 degrees with a -5 windchill sitting on a buckets catching gills. I think we ended up fishing about an hour at best before I heard a very faint quiet shivvering voice say to me "lets go home"....
OK!!!!

Later on that day she told me that she dosn't understand how I could get so much enjoyment out of somthing so misarable. The next day I was back on the ice having a beer, scratching in places a woman just wouldn't understand!!!!

with heat of course


Frontenac, you are not alone. My gf was even peering over my shoulder the day after I wrote my response and asked me to click on this thread. I quickly scrolled on and told her it must be a thread about dogs. grin.gif

I tried making it miserable 3 times. Once had to walk about 3/4 mile to get to the spot and made sure it was a darn cold day. She still persisted to ask me this weekend. Once a year I figure I'll have to go out with her.

    • 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.
