Same here. Fished Willow Creek in southern Stearns County this morning, there was a lot more snow than I expected on the ground, made getting around pretty tough. I had one bite all morning, a small brown caught on a 00 Mepps Thunder Bug, and that was it. That is one narrow creek.

Nice, bigger than the 6-7 incher that was my only bite of the day ;\) I should have taken a picture of that little fella, for a small guy he had great color, but the air temp when I was there this AM was 26 degrees, so I decided just to get him back in the water quick.

I did take 2 pics of the widest part of Willow Creek that I fished, this is right before the MN-15 overpass that crosses over the creek in the Kimball business district:

Nice little park there, would like to go there again sometime for a lazy BBQ/trout outing kind of day. Water was not as turbid as I was expecting, saw a few more small trout other than the one that bit, saw quite a few small fry that I couldn't ID as well.

No, I didn't. I was planning on getting up to Luxemburg, but by the time I wrapped it up in Kimball it was close to noon and I had to get back to the metro for a birthday party. I'm going to try to get to Luxemburg sometime this week, take an afternoon off of work and jet up there for a few hours.

I didn't make it out until this evening. River was still over the banks so fishing condition were not very good. I managed a 16 inch brown and nice 22 incher.

      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

      By rundrave · Posted

      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.
