Figured I'd put this here as well as the main forum so it doesn't get lost.
Hopefully it gets certified. ;)
That thar is a mess of good eating and nearly 3#s heavier than the current WR!!! :clap: :thumbsup: :bow:

Drifter did you see his sweet jig in the CBC article?

I had good luck for Burbs on Takhini R. here in Whitehorse, but the ice was so full of sand I didn't even get all 10 holes in for my set lines before the blades were too dull to cut. I wonder how they're getting around that on the Mackenzie? Thinner ice in November I suppose anyways...

Get yourself an auger with chipper blades.
The shaver type blades dull quickly in sandy ice.
You can pick up a new auger for your current powerhead. ;)
Interesting hook. :)
