Could use some thoughts and help


Recommended Posts

I want to put a kids get-together together (huh crazy that freak anyone else out?). Anyway, here is the link to it Kids GTG

I could use any thoughts or advice from everyone. And if you can participate, would be even better. I haven't even got a date yet, but I'm thinkin' in Augest sometime.

I like someone's idea of pontoon but that could get kind of hairy with all those little excited lines in the water. Probably from shore or a pier would be the best though huh? My only advice is bring plenty of snacks and drinks!

That's what I'm thinking. I gotta find a lake to fish and I'm thinking August sometime. Fishing should pick up towards the end of the month but I don't want to get it too close to school. I really want to get them on boats instead of shore for those that don't have a chance to get out on boats. It can be exciting for them.

I've been a part of these before. Its pretty satisfying.

We went to French Park on Medicine Lake in Plymouth. Got everybody together in the A.M. and assigned them to boats.

(Let buddies fish together)

Fished for about 3 hours. Some kids want longer and some shorter, but that really is enough time.

Don't make a contest out of it. The bigger fish will bring out the stories anyway.

We grilled in the Park and handed out some prizes during the picnic. I remember there were some Super Soakers that went over well. eek

So there's some framework to think about. Oh, I'm sure you've already thought of this but make sure you have a good safety checklist including those important PFD's that fit.

You'll be considered the organizer and responsible party.

mad That dang legal that hangs on the end of things! wink

I'm in. where and when? How about Prior Lake, there's Sand Point Beach right next to the public launch. It's got good crappie and walleyes.....there's plenty of parking at the launch, even on Saturdays. I've got a few extra life jackets for the little ones, and even have a couple extra fishin rods. let me know.....

    • 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.
