In Sioux City they've kept a small ice fishing section all year long.

I talked to the fishing guys at the Scheels in West Des Moines on Friday.

It sounded like from talking with them that they hope to get their ice fishing equipment out a lot earlier than last year. Seemed like last year it was near the end of October before they really had stuff out and it sounded like they were aiming for end of September or beginning of October this season.

Again, this is just in conversation though who knows if that will really happen or not.

WDM Scheels is up and running for ice fishing this year. They were stocked up well for this time of year. I spoke with an associate and he says still more to come. Only thing I didnt see was shacks.

Cabela's in PDC was just starting to get stuff out on Saturday. They also had a Lx-9 in their bargain bin that needed a new battery for around $900 if anyone is liking for a good deal on one

Scheels in west Des Moines has a lot of ice fishing stuff out. No flip overs yet. Looked at their gas augers today. Think I'm sold on the 4stroke honda strikemaster it sooo lite!!! And for those of you who carry that 10" jiffy holy cow was that thing heavy!!!

WDM Scheels has a very nice selection of shacks, augers, rods, reels, jigs..... It's all out..... Won't be long now!!!

Was in Sioux City Scheels Sunday and they had a ton of ice fishing stuff out. Can't wait for the hardwater!

We have some out now here at polk city bait. Larry and jeremy are at the trade show right now making orders for the season. We should be fully stocked within 3 weeks from today.

Scheels in Sioux Falls had a majority of their ice fishing stuff, lots of rods and reels. They have way more stuff than they have in the past with the new expansion. I assume they will get more ice shacks as the season gets closer, right now they had 7 shacks out.

Has anyone been to fleet farm Ankeny yet???

Shack man Shoney · « **Reply #17 on:** Oct 17, 2014, 09:25 PM »

Yes I was at FF yesterday they only have half an isle of tip-ups on the shelf. They are getting it out but not very fast.....

matzilla · « **Reply #18 on:** Oct 17, 2014, 10:30 PM »

Was in the Muscatine F/F this week and they said another week or so before they get everything out - they're busy working on toyland lol

I saw that Scheels in Coralville had some jigs that looked very similar to Brantler's

Shack man Shoney · « **Reply #19 on:** Oct 20, 2014, 08:30 PM »

Made it to Bass Pro Altoona today and they have a nice bigger ice section than I have seen in past years. They do have a few Clam Auger plates for anyone who is looking for one. Nice selection of jigs, accessories and shacks, however only a few ice rods and reels. An associate told me they are expecting rods, reels, and a lot more to come. I had a little extra time so I tried Fleet Farm again.... to my total shock the same pallet of merchandise was in the same aisle and it appeared like nothing more was done.....

. FF they gotta step it up!!!

Scheels by jordan creek has a ton of stuff out. Lots of flip overs, auger, poles and accessories! Going back there in 2 days to pick up a honda lite auger for my birthday!

Was at Fleet Farm in Ankeny this past Saturday. Not much out. A few rods and tip ups.

yakker13 · « **Reply #22 on:** Nov 02, 2014, 10:42 AM »

Scheels in Coralville was well stocked last week when I stopped on my way through. Jigs, rods, reels, shacks, you name it.

Shack man Shoney · « **Reply #23 on:** Nov 10, 2014, 07:45 PM »

Rolled into FF Ankeny with money in pocket thinking they would have the shelves packed with hard water gear. Man was I disappointed with the ice fishing section......... It's the WORST in the Des Moines Area!!! I honestly cannot believe they STILL have empty aisles. So I went to Scheels and they got another chunk of my hard water fund. Heck, I'm nearly ready to give up on em!!!

Fleet Farm has more than anyone when it's stocked and they keep it longer. Give it time, patience young grasshoppa!
