How do you think I feel? Here I sit with tons of lakes around, brand new Vex, brand new Jason Mitchell rod, retired and able to go whenever I want, ATV, all kinds of gear, and I can't even get out on my own lake. cry My fishing buddy and I went over and plowed the road down to his lake, but there is no way he was going to plow out onto the lake. He went out about 5 feet and it was slush, slush, and more slush. Guess I may have to start going to lakes where the resorts plow roads, like Winnie. I am sure my lake is slush covered, I might try taking the snowblower down there and give it a shot. At least get myself a path out far enough to set up some tip ups. I know I wont be able to pull my sled out by hand, I will end up having a heart attack. I guess I better start looking for a reasonably priced snowmobile.

On the bright side, at least we get a white Christmas, not a semi-white but mainly brownish Christmas. smile Happy Holidays. smile

I wish I could have a white Christmas. It did snow once here in 1989. Everyone laughed at me for making such a big deal over it. Everyone else totaly freeked out they didnt know what to do so I got to laugh at them.

Barb went out on Moose this morning and with all that snow and the drifts I don't think I will be taking the 4 wheeler out any time soon. I got the snowmobile stuck in the ditch because of all the snow and got overheated trying to get it out. Once I got out on the lake it was better but it felt like you were going through waves when hitting the drifts. The Lakemaster chip in my H2O would not work so I did not get to the spot I wanted but still got 3 small one's and will hit it again tonight. I was able to get the chip working at the cabin so I should get to the good spot tonight.

    • 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.
