Thread: 2017 "Shots From The Hip"

Call me anal but I still pull the hubs every couple of years just to check. I've seen way too many trailers beside the road with the hub pulled off. Usually do everything in the spring before the walleye run, hubs, install batteries and electronics, check trailer lights, test fire the motor, wash the hull, check the trolling motor, vacuum the carpet and get the vests back in the boat. Probably going to do it this weekend. As soon as the launches open at Elizabeth Park we'll be going down to the Detroit River for perch and hopefully a few walleye, too. I'll let you know when we're going, Steve, and you can tag along. Usually have room for one more.

I think no matter what it's a good idea to pull and inspect every couple years. I remember year before last running around down Allegan way finding new bearings while my boat sat on the trailer at Eagle lake with toasted bearings because I got lazy... No fishin that day.
