I was wondering if anyone has any info on the Lake Washington spring crappie tournament or the Madison Lake spring crappie tournament. Usually they have the information out by now. Contact information would be much appreciated for either tournament.

The Washington one is now a joke. It used to be good when Stu ran it. Now it's an inside deal and fills too quick unless you know the guy running it. I didn't even get a sheet sent out and had been fishing it and received something in the mail years prior. Alot of people that used to fish it every year now blow it off. It is now only 50 boats instead of 100. They also ran it last year on a Friday, don't ask me why. This used to be one of the best tourneys in the area, now it sucks. Too bad too.

Madison, that one you can usually walk up to the landing the day of the tourney and get entered. It is usually not full as the weather can be nasty that time of year. Reel Fishing probably has signs up in their store or if not, will be soon.

After doing a little investigating, it looks as though there is no one to run either tournament this year. It sounds as though the guy running the Washington tournament the last couple years is no longer interested in running it. The Madison Lake tourny is put on by the MLFD but they just forced the resignation of the fire chief and from what I understand, she was the one to organize that tournament. It looks as though there may be openings for someone to run either tourny. It would be a shame to let these tournaments die. They did alot to help get the youngsters interested in fishing.

Awful sad. These tournaments used to be alot of fun. A good warmup for the open water season and usually a good time had afterwards!

That Washington used to be one of the better crappie tourneys out there. Too bad they might not happen this year.

Hope someone picks them up and does them right.

Update: The Madison Lake crappie tournament is now also on. It is on Saturday, April 25. Cost is $80.00. The bait shop in Madison Lake has signup sheets for both the Lake Washington and Madison Lake crappie tournaments.

      Problems with Yetti

      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.
