redpearl99 Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Last year I went ice fishing for the first time. Since then I have slowly come to get the ice fishing bug. I wasn't able to contain myself as I've amassed the following equipment during this off season, all purchased new. I'm hoping to finally get out on some bigger lakes for some nice lakers and pike. - Eskimo Fatfish 949i - Humminbird Ice-45 flasher - 6" hand auger - Sienna 1000RD reel spooled with 10lb powerpro ice braid and 8.8 lb floro leader - Rapala xice med action rod and reel spooled with 4lb floro - HT ultra light perch rod - HT polar tip up with 25lb tip up line - windlass tip up - Jet sled - portable snow shovel - buddy heater - columbia waterproof snow pants - woods goose down jacket - Misty mountain thermal underwear and winter sock - portable ice fishing chairs - aerator bait bucket - rapala jigging raps and williams jigging spoons It should be a good season. I'm super excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Nice haul! To me, ice fishing is just as addictive as Muskie fishing. Then again, all fishing is addictive to me. Cheers, Ron... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillM Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 If you get out a lot, you really should consider a floater suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acountdeleted Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 I gotcha beat. I have two of Jacques (trout junkie) tip ups that I haven't had the chance to use yet. They have taunted me for too many days. Gotta agree with Bill though. Float coat or float suit is always a good buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 It's never ending man. Next it will be a $10,000 quad. And $500 gas ice auger. A $50,000 truck to tow the quad. Maybe a cottage up north so you have a place to stay EVERY weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris.brock Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 you seem to have a lot more disposable income than I do (Hahaha) like Art said, a 6 pack of Lucky Lager and you're good to go!

Moosebunk Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Sell the tip-ups and make some sort of tip-downs for your second deadstick. Always seems more fun to play a fish on a rod versus by hand. Otherwise, looks like you're more than equipped to rock out there. Some good stuff.
