I guess I could do a poll or something.

I am not even going to go their grin

Now on to the hats grin

I did like the safety yellow someone brought up (WWG or LFC). Make it look like a true "CAT" hat?

I do not know if this is an option though!

The camo might be hard to pick up on during a night photo????

Here's what I recommend for anyone who doesn't want a hat, or doesn't like the hat we go with. You can call up to FastTrack Products in Brooklyn Park and get the logo put on anything you like. There is no limit to what is acceptable. As long as the logo is in the picture, it's fine. Heck i think they might even stitch it into a piece of clothing you already own.

I lived about 2 miles from Fast Track last year and took some things into them. Late last year they changed their policy that you could no longer take items into them. You had to buy it through them.

But that's neither here nor there. I don't care what we go with, it's gonna get dirty and stinky anyways.

Still can't believe those keys didn't go in the drink. All I gotta say is at least I remembered the rear anchor....that day anyway. smile

Nuh hu.... I'm pretty sure if we consult Captain Shamu I thought that was the night that the anchor took a chunk out of the prop and then got kicked into the boat it torqued the light post....

Either way it was a fun night... [/quote']

No, the anchor that got left in the water only to come flying out later was the front one, captain's duty. I was in charge of rear anchor that night.

LOL.... I know you got your anchor in the boat that night. I just didnt realize that Shamu was sleeping so hard at the switch to leave the front one in water after take off.

I think he still needs to have that anchor worked over.

is there going to be a roll call in the future for those that want to be a part of KOTC? I didn't join last year due to moving and getting married. this year I need a reason to fish cats more often. i would also pay for a hat, so include me in the count if you need more.

Can't wait to sign up! Is there any fee besides the hat?

No, there is no fee. And the hat isn't required either, a control item logo can be printed out on any piece of paper. So, the contest is actually completely free. The hats are just an optional item, I found it a convenient way to make sure I always had my control item with me last year -- just fish with the same hat all year smile

    • 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.
