My buddy sold me his Frabill 2-man Trekker, so I'm gonna have a fun time using that on the ice this year along with my new SHOWDOWN unit.

Have me a TB perch rod on its way and plan on buying equipment to start making my own ice rods. Also looking at buying a Jiffy propane auger with my cabelas points even though my ol model 30 purrrrs. If anyone is looking for a underwater camera I would sell my Vexilar scout for cheap. Used maybe 3 times. PM me if interested.

Way overpriced if you ask me. I don't see this being a hot seller at all.

As for new toys, my 8" chipper bit crapped out at the end of the last season so I replaced it with a 7" lazer bit. Haven't got to drill a hole with it yet...

The new marcum is real. At 1400 bucks i can combo up a 597 bird with gps with an aqua vu micro mounted to the portable pack and still save 500

I was on a bus and just happened to be sitting on a news paper. This guy came up and asked. "Are you reading that ?"
I said  yes, stood up, turned the page and sat back down.

Just picked up a FLX-28 ultra pack, FL-20 ultra pack, a FL-18 head unit only to add to a empty ultra pack I already had. will be stocking up on more of the Clam Drop Jigs, some more Merino wool socks, 2 small Clam light bars to use in the hub house, couple sets of replacement blades for the augers (always like to have a new set on hand as a back up), another jig box for the new jigs, the Clam chair, a hammer chisel, and last but not least may be a new house of some type, just don't know which one yet. kind of leaning towards a full thermal nanook or a thermal X2, or bigfoot 4000t hub house.
