Would keep someone from coming to close to your hole though.............

And that Ma Duece would sure open up a hole fast.  ;D

All joking aside, with what they charge for sleds nowadays, I'd whip up a smitty or fix that old one up...it can't be totally unfixable. Just my .02

I've gone the other way the past buncha years. Down to a small-ish sled and a Dewalt/K-drill setup. Super easy to pull on foot and always in the Tahoe for spur-of-the-moment fishing. Makes me go more because of less load-up and prep.  :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

Doesn't answer your question but gave me a reason to post. Its hot here right now and sitting on my bucket on ice sounds so good. I had to see what my ice brethren are up to.  ;D  :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

I have been searching for a large sled to make a home made knock off of the old Bay Runners.  They seem to be impossible to find.  I have an old Shappell DX 3000 and my plan was to install the rails on a big sled and buy a new cover for the DX 3000.  Then cut out the hatch cover holes and pimp it out.  The biggest I found was the Jet Sled Magnum, but it seems pretty hard to find online.  It was 44" x 71".

why not just pull a chain of sleds?  a huge sled is harder to manage loading and storing.
