Thanks for posting this. I hope they work good on braid. Haven’t found anything that can consistently make a clean cut. Nothing more aggravating than trying to feed frayed braid through the opening of a tiny swivel. Worth a shot.

They work great on braid, overall great tool have one tethered in my boat full time.  Their pliers on the other hand are COMPLETE garbage. A pair of tweezers are stronger.

Cabela's sale flyer for black Friday show's a helix 7 gps model non ice bundle for 399.99...  might be worth it to find a transduecer and battery and case?? even Dave Genz blues box cost $25 are not bad??  if you find a helix 7 cheap enough? Use 3/8 inch rebar for the Transduecer mount for the one that comes with it?  if any thing.. do one cheap till you can get the ice ducer..

I got my Predator bibs from The Reel Shot in January for $168. It was a 20% off Striker sale, but I'd watch for a black Friday deal there. Quick shipping and free.

Scheels was willing to sell them to me 20% off last night in store....wasn't even asking, just trying them on...I assume there will be a sale for that much coming up.

I think that's called bait and switch
This type of thing happens everyday. Society has changed, no one has pride or integrity anymore it’s all about misleading and manipulation to get ahead.

It sure is.  Bass Pro had an insulated clam flipover for $199 with free shipping a year or two ago on Christmas morning. I made a big stink and got a $100 gift certificate when they cancelled my order.  They cancelled every single order on that product.  I wonder how much other stuff was purchased along with those shanties?

$89 I thought they sold 2 years ago for $69! At any rate they are only $79 at Sportsmans. https://www.sportsmans.com/fishing-gear-supplies/ice-fishing/ice-augers-accessories/clam-drill-ice-fishing-auger-conversion-kit/p/1416847?channel=shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5dPuBRCrARIsAJL7oejSNUBEzn2tLQ2oaz29eOkjYI4WTT39FLz49rrokUh0hMhcN_OqBoQaAi3-EALw_wcB

You’re correct! I paid $69 plus tax 2 years ago in a store in central Michigan. I don’t think Clam expected them to be as popular as they are. Having said that, I’ve spent $80 on way worse products.

Franks Great Outdoors has Striker Trekker bibs for $99.  Anyone have these bibs?  How do they size.  I am 5 ft 6" 170lbs.  I see conflicting sizes recommendations, not many reviews online.

https://www.franksgreatoutdoors.com/striker-ice-trekker-bib-black-c-strkr-21300

Looks like they must have gotten another shipment of these because they now have all of the sizes available again. Does anyone know how the Trekker sizes run?

Anyone know how warm these things are? They say in the description for early and late ice. Looking for my dad and brother and they are babies when it comes to the cold so not sure these would be warm enough for them.

On rapala.com you can get 25% off a single item! For example the new strike master jacket or bibs you can get for $149.99 and a free sticker and free shipping. Use the code ICE25. Even works for electronics including the Marcum Lithium Shuttle

I ordered a pair of the Trekker bibs last night from Frank's Great Outdoors in size medium. I signed up for their newsletter hoping to get a promo code, but it didn't come in until after i placed the order. Oh well, maybe someone else can use it and save some money. Use code WELCOME for $5 off.

I'm 6'0" 190 pounds with a 32-33" waist, so I went with a medium. I'll let everyone know how they fit once i get them in.

I tried them on and even though it is an excellent price, I felt like they were relatively light. For MN temperatures it didn't feel like a suite I'd want to be fishing outside in. Great quality, just not warm like the Predator or the Climate. ( I was told that the climate is very similar to the hardwater suit. Take out the liner from the climate and you basically have the Predator.....not sure how much true that is but that's what I've been told).

I was afraid that might be the case, mboss13. I'll give them a shot and if they're not warm enough, return them or sell them and buy something else. That's the risk you take buying online without trying them on I guess. Buying them at 50% off, I should be able to get my money back on them at least.

I think you can always get what you paid for them from Facebook Marketplace at that price. Like I said, they feel great, and if the temp will be around 20F with low wind, you'd probably be fine.....but come January around me that would be a heat wave, which happens like one day in January.

I think you should have went with a Large. I am 5'9" 180 and were a large Bib. Gives me plenty of room for layers.

Well you saved me $5  ;D   … thanks!

I went with the XL which said it was for a 38-40 inch waist. I'm not too worried about warmth because I typically sit in my heated shanty and jig lakers  ::)

Cabela's is at 12% cashaback through Active Junky. Might have to pull the trigger on the lite flite 8" with the 20off100 coupon they sent and 20%off gift cards....or to wait until cyber monday sales......hard to decide....either way that would bring the $ cost to me to about $125+ tax after all is said and done. Anybody think it will go lower than $179 anywhere online....I'm not even sure that they'd pricematch a black friday/cyber monday deal anyway

Not sure that your going to beat that $ 125 deal with all your nuances added in ...maybe there will be a 20% off here and there ..but then you would have to wait for a price match to be approved..and I bet stock will be depleted before the season ..its a fast drill with the StrikeMaster name .

Was that 20 off $100 in the mail or email? Family member usually gets one and passes it on to me but I never seen to get them  ???  Have a $100 order ready to pull the trigger on, might have to wait and see if one pops up.

Also $125 is a great price. I think the 6" ones were $135 at the Blaine hardwater expo
