guess what I turned a ammo box into
« on: Oct 16, 2017, 07:28 PM »
Was so sick of the soft case my showdown came in so I made this. As you can see I can attach my new recon 5 if I want.

I like the setup, but I like the Title even better.  Not what alot of us expected to be inside, but well done!

Cool looking setup man!

Couple quick things for you to consider tho. Water/snow/slush  will get inside that box when you set it on the ice. Be careful of that. Water and electronics dont play well together.

The fishing was good; it was the catching that was bad.

Thanks, I am going to add rubber feet on the bottom to keep up off the ice.

You could also fit a small piece of plastic to cover about as high as the battery is. Seal it with some silicone or marine goop.

To catch them all…you gotta catch them small
