Slow fishing for me!

Hi everyone! Well I've been out fishing almost every night during my time off from work but it's been slow fishing. I did catch a 36" northern (C&R) today and about 8 perch. So at least I didn't get skunked! I did have a blast looking down the hole at all the perch at about 4:30. Then suddenly they all clear out and that northern comes flying in and SNAPPO chomps my jig while I watched! That was SUPER cool to see and I actually think I may be jigging a little too vigorously because I was barely jigging at all and she just inhaled it! (Time for a Marcum camera??) The lake we were fishing was really clear since I was located in about 18 feet of water. Really neat stuff. I'm just blessed to be able to live so close to a beautiful lake. Now if she would just give up ONE really nice walleye I would be soooo happy! Maybe this weekend?! smile.gif

PS. I will try to post my modest northern pic if I can photoshop my head out of it. HEEHEE tongue.gifgrin.gifcrazy.gif

WOW Lisa, how exciting that must of been!!! I bet that clear water is fun to fish in. You must of been huffing and puffing just bringing that fish to the surface!!!!

Lets not forget that perch now, their always a plus in my book, love the taste of those.

I remember spear fishing with my Dad years ago in a small lake, it was clear like that and with that big ole hole to look into it was amazing. Those fish used to come though and look almost double their size.

Hope you get some more ice time in, its no fun to go back to work. Have a Happy New Year!Diana

      Problems with Yetti

      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.
