I just got a call today asking me to go work near spencer iowa. I will be headed out tuesday and starting work on wednesday.My issue with this is minnesota deer season starts saturday so I will be missing most of the season. I will be bringing my shotgun, rifle, and muzzleloader as well as a bow.

I am hoping someone can help me with land to hunt for pheasant and or deer. Public or private doesnt matter as long as it wont be a waste of time since I will only have 1 or 2 days off a week. Thanks

Lots of public ground around Spencer, Dickenson county alone has something like 40,000+ acres of public hunting ground. IGL's are also great fishing don't forget to bring a pole. I live 15 miles north of there in Milford be happy to show you around or answer any questions. Not much into hunting anymore but good pheasant hunting in the area.

All Iowa is shotgun but being your a non res unless you applied for a tag your SOL. I think applications are due in April. Plenty of birds to chase but get pressured. I would bring the rods and forget the hunting LOL Great fishing year round if thats your thing. Walleyes, smallmouth, muskies and about everything else. Great ice fishing for giant gills sight fishing. Can't beat gin clear water for ice fishing.

May want to add the auger and ice shack to the list LOL. What kind of work are you doing down here? Plenty of shore access, eyes have been being had by the guys wading and fishing the bridges in the evenings. I'm on the lake every weekend mainly after the elusive muskie but a guy gets hungery at times and I'll fish for supper.

      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.

      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.
