I was thinking about the first time I ever went ice fishing and realized that it has been 22 years I’ve been ice fishing. I started out with a used spoon auger, my poles were wooden dowels with a steel rod drilled into the end and 2 pegs in the handle to wind the line. I next moved up to a mora 6″ auger and schooley rods. My first electronics was bought, at K-Mart, was a Hummingbird graph that was in a plastic suitcase style case, I thought it was the greatest thing out there. Then I bought an original FL-8 and had to buy the case and ice ducer seperate. Now I have an LX-5, a power auger, a Lazer hand auger, Aqua-View camera, Eskimo quip flip II, and some very nice ice spinning rods and reels. My next item I would like to get is a Ranger style 4 wheeler. I’m anxious to see what the next great invention will be for ice fishing!!!
