I don’t know I can’t get the channel but sure am checking in waiting for it to be up on here.

Down here my favorites are pk spoons and black and chart. 1/16oz jigs

I will sure try to post pictures I haven’t taken any because I’m not sure how to get them to computer and post them but I will for sure get some my daughter is great with stuff like that.Crappie is my favorite caught and released a 16″ this year but generally a 12-13 is a nice fish in these parts. We have some nice bulls and some big bass but a lot of good eater crappie 9,10,11 inchers.

Just got a call from Marcum,They said they made a mistake and they are able to send me a new head and ducer out today. And mine is on the way back to them.That makes my day better.Pretty good customer service,I guess I am to impatient as I was beginning to doubt them,should of took into account they are probably swamped right now.

Ya its frustrating but its just one of those deals,not the end of the world but still,I ordered a replacement from cabelas and had it overnighted should be here tomorrow,I was just thinking they should overnight me something o well. I needed a spare anyhows.Almost bought a vex but I really like this Marcum.I did ask if they had a 7 and I would gladly upgrade to one and they don’t have one of them either.Heck I would upgrade to a 9 if they would get it here. Stuff breaks just part of it.Kind of funny I can’t contact them at all by phone though.

I like the suffix ice magic #3,but also use blue #4 northland also.

Just a update I have tried to call Marcum all morning long with no avail.Wife called and said the emailed me and said no more 5s in stock send mine in for a repair.I would gladly of upgraded to a 6 or 7 but seems like no contact by phone,so I’ll email them back.

Thanks guys,I need to get another one anyway just no one close has any,I think I’ll have a spare come next year.

Thanks guys I will try the truck battery but I heard a growling motor sound I’m guessing I’m screwed and I bought online cause no where around me has flashers we just aren’t a big market in my area althought I’ve ice fished for years just haven’t had this much ice for so long,I should buy a spare but with all the new stuff I’ve bought this year I’d be in the dog house. Are the Marcum 7’s more reliable,if I do buy another I might try one of those, I would love to try a 9 but I hole hope around after slabs so much I’m afraid it would be to heavy?

I live in Missouri and bought it online from Glens I emailed Marcum and left a message as they were already closed. I am trying to find a lx 7 I can pick up tomorrow and see if they will overnight me a new lx5 and I will send mine in. Just sucks I should have bought a spare but like I said this is my first year with a flasher and thought it would last longer than a month.

I can do it old school,but It just ain’t near as productive for me.I never had a flasher and always fished blind but since I’ve had one it would be hard to go without one. Thanks

I don’t see any otter shelter on the cabelas web site,am I missing it?

Thanks guys I’m from Bethany area just off I-35 20 miles or so south of Iowa Line.Cabelas in Kansas city doesn’t carry them and Scheels in des moines didn’t either,but I’ll check the others out,I may end up ordering from Reeds,seems like they have good prices to boot. Just thought if I could drive up north and pick one up that wasn’t too far I might as my ice and time will be slipping away someday.
