Ice traction, easy on/off

Ice traction question. I have Katoolas and they are great. My ice boots are Clam Sub Zero X. I found a few times this winter I didn’t put the katoolas on because they made a lot of noise which spooked fish, I was fishing from the truck and didn’t want to rip up my floor mats or make it hard to drive, and they aren’t the easiest to get on and off. Anybody try some of those velcro crampons to stick on a boot or shoe, or something else that is easy on/off and gives a little traction?

I wear the k1s at work. They suck.

BC; darn…but the Job Sites are pretty cheap. The K1’s fall off?

I use these. Micro spikes I don’t like. These have great traction, easy on and off when driving or getting on the atv.

No they work it’s just hard because where they are located on your foot doesn’t help your toes from slipping.

Carpet trimmed to match the boots with a couple of hex screws is what I use for shallow late ice fish.
