I have been visiting other outdoors sites on the web, and have to say that FM is the best for info and keeping it clean and respectfull, and without grining an axe. I believe a person can get their point across without getting foul and vulgar. This and other sites are not just used by us guys, kids and ladies are using them also. Don't know about the rest of you, but do not think some young kid interested in fishing or sports needs to open a post and see every foul four letter word in the book. Thanks for keeping it clean and keep up the great work.

Great post! cool.gif

It can not be said to much.

I think what makes this site great, is almost all the posters put time and quality in their post's. Also almost all members of this site keep an open mind to opinions relayed and help each other in the ways which they can.

CONCUR! Great to have such a dedicated staff to take care of the boards! I used to love the DNR boards but without some one to delete the "riff raff" posts they shut it down. I know that thye get paid very well for their efforts! smirk.gif Yeah right!

THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!!

Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

Thanks for the kind words.

There are so many great people who make this site what it is. I really enjoy it when I get to meet folks from FM face to face. It really is a site for the whole family.

My Username is kwiggy and I am an FM aholic. There, you know admitting it is the first step to recovery. I wake up in the morning and the first thing I need is to check the posts. Once I have read one, I have to read more. I am encouraging others to read this site and we are finding our conversations relating to what we read here. This causes me to read more. If I don't get to read it as often as I wish, I get crabby and shaky. Is there help for me? I'm not so sure these people deserve all this credit as they are making my life ridiculously difficult due to my addiction. Just kidding of course... this site rocks and I really am addicted to it! Nice job everybody. The normalcy is refreshing smile.gif

Couldn't have said it better myself boilerguy. Without all the members, pro staff and Rick none of us would have the chance to learn, share and become friends and neighbors with people we may never have met. Thanks for the post and for everyone who contributes to these forums.

We try and keep this site family oriented at the same time putting out top notch info. Thats done with good staff and good members.

There are other sites to that offer a different twist if you will. Some I have friends at but no they aren't a family site.

Yeti, thank you for turning something positive around. Sadly I expected this.

I'll add negative comments in general to the list. If we allowed them to take over the forum, this would be a different place.

"Yes. It's a great site to talk to other fisherman and gain knowledge." Isn't it nice to be able to do that on a positive note.

I have fish for dinner quite often.

Photos: Consider being able to post them a privilege.

The Guidelines, much like what a professional photographer would use. Use them as a Guide to taking Quality pictures. You'll be greatfull to have them years from now when you flip through your photo album.

Like your home, you have rules. If I enter your home I respect them. If I don't like them I don't come back. If you don't like me you don't invite me back.

It's been six years now for me on HSO/FM, and it's been a true pleasure batting things around on all these boards. With the the large number of varied interests I have had over the years, I must say I've enjoyed the additions of some of the more recent topical boards, too. There's more to life than hunting and fishing (well, maybe not MUCH more), and those other boards are getting a lot of traffic.

We've got so many knowledgeable members that you never know when a great piece of advice is going to come straight out of left field.

Not to mention all the people I've met and friends I've made through this site. FM started off as a good place to learn and grow, and every year it's just gotten better.

Keep it up, everyone!

A big Thank You from me, also. I've been on here for coming up on 4 years, and have tried to give back as much as I have gotten, but I don't think I'll ever come close to that. My wife and friends have noticed that I'm on here so much that they have now dubbed it "fishporn," as in "Are you on fishporn again?" when I'm online. But, it has gotten all of them (and me!) more interested in more diverse outdoor activities, and has gotten them more results. I actually prefer the semi-sterile enviroment in here compared to other forums and the endless bickering; I think it's a nice compromise.

      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.

      Problems with Yetti

      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.
