Ice fishing bucket ideas

[jaeger80]

I'm making a new ice fishing bucket with a padded seat and rod holders riveted to the outside.  Anyone have any pictures of theirs or   good ideas for one?  I started with the most important part....a crappie sticker...

I use a milk crate, well now I’m using my yak attack crate from kayak fishing. Bucket fits in there and you can attach multiple holders without drilling into bucket

That's pretty smart!  Good idea

Eskimo makes one now too.  I almost bought one, but I bought a hole hop caddy last year, so really couldn't justify it.

May as well it deluxe with heat in the padded seat.

Check out a Cabela's bucket caddy!  They strap onto a bucket and have rod holders and an assortment of pockets.

I have the cabelas bucket caddy...it's okay but I have to think there's better out there. It slips off easy and its a pita to use the bucket handle.

This is what makes ice fishermen great!  Ice fishermen are by far the most creative and ingenuity can be seen everywhere. What other group / type of fishermen would take something as simple as a bucket and take time to make it the most “tricked out” purpose built bucket there is. Awesome!

I put a bunch of eyebolts in mine for rod holders. Couple different sizes for different diameter handles

Finished her up... equipped with high-speed-low-drag decals...

Looks great I like to replace my bucket handles with rope.
