the same thing happened to me when i got this 31 incher fishing for panfish in a 300 acre lake. i was talking with my wife on the cell when the walleye took my flu flu with a small crappie minnow on it. after realizing the fish was bigger than a crappie i told her i would have to call her back. i quickly released it after taking the pic on the tape. good luck.

@ Fishahalik: Everyone looks amazed in the back of the boat laughlaugh

Ya, my son was downright scared of it! It was pretty cool, he's used to catching sunnies and crappies. He's caught a couple nice bass but they defintely don't have teeth like the eyes do! Dad was jealous too, he'd been fishing for eyes all afternoon and hadn't gotten a bite

I think that was a tongue in cheek comment but I was only guessing by the looks of the fish add that with the barren backround I would think that would eliminate Minnetonka...haha

i posted this in my Arrowhead thread, but i thought this pic deserves a shot in the photo gallery. the walleye was caught in Kabetogoma back in the early 30's. have no idea how big it is and can only guess over 10 lbs. my experience at the Kab was more eater walleys than big girls like this one. good luck.

Here's a picture of the first walleye I've ever caught in my life at Lake Vermilion! After my neighbor's son and his best friend heard that I've never caught a single 'eye in my life when we were hanging at their island cabin for a few drinks, they sought to get me out at 4 in the morning, and act as fishing guides in their local honeyhole to get me one. It was awesome! We traded stories, did the usual guy stuff, and me and his best friend almost had a big one on (which would've been my second), but we lost it as soon as it reached our boat (could've been one in the slot limit). It was 15 inches, so it was the perfect eater. I don't think I'll be able to get another one this year, but if I do, it sure as heck won't beat that great time I had out in July!

    • 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.
