Anyone know where that was at? Same location as the trucks that went in last weekend?

Thanks gary,
I will try that website. I can get it to go to ice mode, it just won’t read the transducer when it is in ice fishing mode. Maybe I am doing something wrong? I believe I had to update my 5 prior to it working well with the ice ducer if I remember correctly. Thanks again everyone!

Anyone have an idea where I could locate this cable? Thanks in advance!

That’s incredible! I am not too far from the offices, and we are going past there all the time since my wife’s family is from the cities. I may just try to swing in and have them work on it. If I can get it running well again for the cost of parts and a small fee, it would be worth it to have for my kids. Thanks!

So I was able to check the transducer via the hard floor test. It is still working fine. I can also hear it clicking, so I think I am ruling out the ducer. I also have a new battery, so I am ruling that out as well. Going to try to clean the brushes first and check to see if they need replacing. Anyone done their own? It looks fairly straightforward from the instructions, but I just don’t want to mess it up. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the ideas. I will try them. Like I said, I would love to keep it around for my daughter to use since she is getting into fishing. Thanks again!

Thank you very much! I will give it a try.

That is an excellent point! I think I will get an inline fuse holder. Thanks for the response.

Bandsaw or Dremel have been my go to, and I always cut the butt end off, not the tip

Hey iceking,
I know it isn’t the metro, but I was just at scheels in Rochester and the guy told me that they were expecting a shipment in around the 26th. Might be worth a call. The kid might have bad intel too as I was told that they were not going to be shipping more out this season at another retailer. Good luck!

Thanks guys! I will look into all of these.

I have two buddies who run Ice 35’s…I run a vexilar and there was no issue there either for what it is worth. They seem like a good unit.

Perhaps my usage of the word notorious was a touch harsh. Minnetonka scares the life out of me, but I am sure if you know the lake it is fine. Good luck, and I hope you get into some good fish!

Minnetonka is notorious for springs and varying ice conditions as well…I would have the rental place take you out on an atv or just walk. No chance I am going to put my truck on Minnetonka. Just my $.02…
