Whats on your ice fishing wish list?

[CorynTracySellHomes]

Unfortunately it doesnt look like I will be on the ice Thanksgiving weekend, but, it will happen soon enough!!

Here is my Christmas wish list! (Tracy ya listening?)

1. A new skin for my Otter Lodge! I LOVE my Otter! But, after 5 years of abuse, gale force winds, and 20 mile jaunts across the lake it has developed few rips and its not as pretty as before. My Otter sled is indestructible! They are deffenitely the best in the buisness as far as I am concerned.

2. A new Marcum Flasher! I have a Vexilar FL8SLT that is great, but I really liked the crisp clear screen on those Marcums.

3. Lots and Lots And Lots of Scenic Tackles "Angel Eyes" I am stubborn, I have stuck by my standard jigging spoon and usually can outfish most with it. BUT. There have been more times than I care to remember that I got smoked by the "Angel Eye"! I have seen these things work from Pool 4 on the Mississippi in open water for waleyes, to smoking hot on Mille Lacs for walleyes and perch, to giant slabs on Red Lake and everwhere in between. These are deffenitely going in my ice box!

What do you guys want for this ice season?

2. Looking to replace a 8 year old fl-8 with the LX-3

3. Most of my tackle wishes have been satisfied by JR's and Scenic. Lots of new tackle rods and reels to try out this year.

4.I am in need of replacing a 12 year old Jiffy

5. this is the biggie: TIME TIME TIME

1) Ice. Duck season still has a few more days, but I'll take the ice now.

2) An Otter portable. Hey, I already got that a couple months ago. I was shamed into replacing a vintage (1989) Fish Trap by Exudedude. I suppose I got my money's worth out of that shack.

3) Hardly any snow! Alright, let it snow some for the snowmobilers, but melt down on the lake right away.

4) Let all of us FMers live in good health through another ice fishing season.

[Deitz Dittrich]

1)Just ordered my Frabill XLTwin.. should have it before the ice gets here...

2)Need to make a few more walleye rods for ice fishing. MOst of my time is spent chasing crappies and gills, but I really want to expand and fish more eye's

3)Angle eyes.. from what I hear, they are what I need to get! Expecially if I want to fish more eyes!

4)Marcum LX-3... I already have a Vex FL-18 but I really would like to have the LX-3. The variable zoom being the key.

5)More Ice buster bobbers.... man I thought they were a gimic, so i put off buying them for way to long... finally bought 2 of them last year and was amazed. I now only own 4 I think... ohhhhh Santa?

6)MORE TIME ON THE WATER THIS YEAR WITH MY FRIENDS FROM FM!!!!

[Corey Bechtold]

Well I would have to start with:

1) The winning lottery ticket so I could get everything I wanted.

2) Take some of the extra winnings and buy all of you guys everything on your lists.

Too bad I can't afford to buy a lottery ticket!

Good Luck on your lists,

Corey Bechtold

A flasher... When you replace your vexilars, let me know.

[1DIRTBALL]

woodsmanmn, Check out Vexilar's website. They sometimes have refurbished units that have been used very little by the Pro's. These are then sold at a greatly reduced price. That's how I got my FL-18. I like it so much that in the summer I don't even take my graph out anymore.

I forgot one!

I have a couple of Thorne Brothers ice rods. A sweet heart, a dead stick, and an older jigging rod. I want another couple of jigging rods and a couple more sweet hearts! If you have never fished with there rods you are missing out! It makes ice fishing so much more fun with good equiptment! It never ceases to amaze me how open water anglers think nothing of spending $150.00 plus for open water rods and reels but balk at spending $30.00 bucks for a good ice rod!

Nice used Otter Resort going on the market soon. Almost new. With cover and hitch. I have not gotten final approval yet for my ad but the ad is paid for, so a shameless plug is in order. Used one season, about a dozen times ($500). Where's the freaking ice!!!!!!!! Need cold, I WISH FOR ABOUT 6 INCHES OF ICE!!!!!

[LittleRanger]

Oh yah, I wish to be on the ice Dec 24 and watch the Vikes kick the cheese eating, cheese smelling good for nothing Packers!!!!!!!! Skol Vikes...........................god I hate the Packers

NUMBER ONE AND ONLY ONE

Looking to replace my Eskimo Ice Auger. It has served my needs for the last 16 years and my Dads before that I think he bought it in the 70's sometime... Still works great hard to find the left hand turn serrated blades for it and it dont want to start below 0. Time to retire the ORANGE TORNADO
