I added some new additions this year to my arsenal, a Tucr bullwhip and quick tip with an otter box. I also included a picture of my new tungsten jig setup. Please feel free to include pictures of your new ice additions.

Do we have any predictions for first ice?
Time for a a couple coats of spar varnish on my old Smitty. Hoping to get enough ice for walk on within in a few weeks if the cold weather predicted here shows up.Polaris is tuned and ready to pull the thermal, bring it on! Must say sure have enjoyed having the Lund in the water this late in the season smacking big eyes pulling cranks, fishing has been real good here. Time to get out and tarp and store for another year.Full moon, weather change. Fish safe.

I like the PVC smitty sled, I haven’t seen that before. I built one out of 2Xs and it’s pretty heavy, but works. I think I will have to try the PVC version. Did you glue all of your joints together? Or are some assembled on site? I also like the rope for tie down areas-
Any other suggestions? Is that just some plywood on top?
Thx. Yes I used primer and glue as well as pop riveted the joints. Overkill but wanted this one to hold up (learned on an early model) Top is riveted on 1/4
” Baltic Birch, light but strong just needs the odd coat of finish.Stro-Foam in the tube’s as well 2″ strofoam base gives it positive floatation.Ropes work to keep weight down. Works slick. Fish safe.
