HEY!!! Idaho and Wyoming!


Recommended Posts

Calling all Idaho and Wyoming sportsmen and women!!!

We are looking at expanding the Montana forum to include you!!! If you tend to lurk here, let me know where you are from and what areas you hunt and fish. I would really like to get some info sharing going on between our neighboring states. I go to Idaho frequently and I know many ID and WY folk come to MT, so lets expand our horizons a little bit.

I will do what I can to help you all share info and answer questions as I can. But, I gotta know there are some folks out there. Tell your friends and lets get this forum talking!

I'm not in Idaho, but I have family in Boise that we visit a few times a year. We try to get out either for some fishing at Lucky Peak or prairie dogs south of Boise and down out to Castleford.

I can't promise any of them will visit but I'd keep tabs on an Idaho forum.

MJ I live in the NE corner of MT. I would also like to get some more interest going here on the MT forum. About all I have seen lately is some of the people saying how high the prices are for NON RESIDENTS to hunt. Like I said, I thank a lot of the rich that are buying up large ranches or leasing like Cabala's.and raising the price to take part in the hunt. I almost forbid myself to buy from Cabelas after what I have seen them lease up huntting ground around Plentywood MT and do there thing there. CAJ

Well.......... I have spent my whole life growing up in Montana, but I recently took a teaching position in Wyoming and will be splitting my fishing time up between the two states now. So you can bet I will be posting frequently.

CODYDAWG Yes it has been cold here in NE Montana. We still have no snow. Thank God for that, with all the wind we have had. Just hope the birds are finding enough food to stay alive when it is this cold. Was out to farm to feed some goodies to them the last week or two. Will have to keep it up from now on. The guys on Nelson Bros. farm are feeding a big bunch again. don't know about Todd. Would imagine he ios to. With the price at $22.00 a bushel, they might be holding off on the good Durum. CAJ

My uncle was National guard recuiter, in Williston ND. Tony hunted and knew many ranchers and others in Montana. I was looking forward to going out there, join him in a hunt. But before I got to come out he got Cancer moved to devils lakes where pasts away 1yr later. I wouild still like to do a hunt in memory of Tony Beecroft, I wanted to hunt muler and antelopewith a bow first, then a rifle if bow I can't get one that way.

Could someone give me a hand on how I could do this hunt for Sgt. Beecroft.

I would recomend you get ahold of the Fish and Game office in Glasgow MT, and get some maps of the CMR Russell areas along Fort Peck Dam. It is a very good area to hunt for Deer, Elk, and Antelope. It probably would be the easiet area in the Eastern part of Montana, and the best. There is good huntting on both sides if the Dam. Lots of Federal land and BLM that is open to the public for huntting. That is my best suggestion. Permits will have to be had early in the year.

    • 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.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
