Thanks JD! It is very light. Smitty came up with an amazing concept, THANKS AGAIN SMITTY!There are roughly 70 pages of variations OF THE Smitty Sled dreamed up by our fellow IS members, very cool piece of ice fishing equipment. For anyone that hasn't found the thread on the SS here it is: http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=103927.0
Use the link that Lavman posted to access the thread on the ice shanty equipment page, lots of ideas. I just made one and I will take a photo to share the next time I am on the ice.
I picked up an older Otter sled off Craigslist earlier this year and the bottom is really scarred up so it drags hard. I'm thinking about "repurposing" some of my old skis into something like Lavman's setup and then strap the Otter on top. I was contemplating getting the Otter runners, but they want a small fortune for them and I don't think those will help much in deeper snow anyway. Lavman .... Just curious, why do say that the long rope is a necessity?
