hillbilly, great meeting you yesterday. It maybe was a good idea to move I was a little p.o. about having to leave early, but seeing the weather last night and this morning, I'm glad the girls left early.

Posted

yes good to meet you. yea after a lot of miles we found a nice clear lake and could see 12' and see leaves. yea buddy calld me this morning and said it was a little windy I could hear the wind just beating the house. I think I need to start on my permint house tonight

Well I haven't had much time to post pics this winter, but I did get a nice fish on the ice a couple weeks ago from a lake up north. It was right on 35 inches, and later in the day I had another mid 30's come in. Only two fish I saw that day, but it was a blast.

Here's Saturday's catch with my new "Hardwater Hardware" spear. The largest is a 16.5 pound male. I'm now 6 for 6 with the new spear in 15 foot of water.

There is nothing wrong with that, those are some fine fish you have there. Just so you know it can be habit forming, winkcool.

Posted

I have never heard of a 16 pound male?

Posted

Picked up a nice 34 in. 9 pounder only after one hour in my shack!

I have never heard of a 16 pound male?

I have never seen a male that large either, but it was definitely a male. Large sperm sacks are sort of a give away.

Posted

just think how large the females fish are then. shockedcool

Very Nice Hillbilly, 9tine and Betterlabs. Nice to see Kenneth smile working the decoys hope he gets a chance at one. I didn't have a cell phone with Sat or Mon for pic's I will have to remember next weekend.

A couple from Saturday relocating Dealer and Dorkfish's house, just as cold and miserable as Sunday only without wind.

The quote of the day was "why do we work this hard just to fish"

Posted

Ha I am not sad I didn't make it up to fish with you guys yesterday the wind looked nasty in the forecast

Posted

It was rough out there yesterday. Days like that are when I'm glad I have A perm house.

Posted

Hawkeye43 asked how big the females get around here. Well, here's this past Saturday's catch 26.5 lbs on my digital scale, 42-43 inches (I only had a 36 inch tape)

      Some smaller lakes around Rapids are opening up. Few should be completely free by next week. Last weekend some of the bigger lakes still had 2 ft of ice. Supposed to get warmer this weekend but Monday the high is 40 and lows below freezing. I'm going stir crazy myself

      Good Morning:   Trying to help a friend out as I mentioned to him the expertise on this site.   He bought a Garmin Echo Map last year for his 1800 Fisherman on Pokegama Lake. He claims he has power all the way up to the cradle, but when on the cradle, the system turns off. He's planning on driving the boat down to the cities from Pokegama for service on the Garmin, but thought I would ask some of you experts if there is anything he should try before doing so.    Again, I am sure it's a long shot, but anyone experience anything similar?

      Glad you’re getting results!   I’d throw a new set of sparks in there for next season too.  Weak sparks have given people plenty of headaches.   I just had a deal where a friends wheeler just died while he was loading it on a trailer.  Wouldn’t restart for anything.  He and I did a lot of checks and trials to get it running but couldn’t.  I finally took it to my local small engine guy.  He repeated all the diagnostics we did, plus some, and couldn’t get it started.   Based on his experience, he decided to try a new set (mind you they did have spark outside the cylinder).  It fired right up.  Pretty rare for BOTH of them to go bad but it’s been running great ever since.

      If you have a Mity-vac, make sure to pressure test the needle and seat before putting the carb back together. That will often solve leak/flooding issues (but I don't think that's your issue). It's a different type of fuel leak.

      I moved the clips on the jet needles up to the top groove to lean it out.  This eliminated the mid-range bog and the sled accelerates well even when warm.  The plugs are not quite dark now, but look good.  I'll have to rebuild the Mikuni carbs this summer for the permanent solution.  I'll also repair or replace the primary clutch to eliminate that issue.  Thanks for all of the suggestions.
