Over the summer I purchased a Humminbird shuttle for the 8/9/10 and a 19ah Amped Outdoors Lithium battery. I am mostly ready to go for the winter season. After the dock was pulled and little fishing boat removed, I removed my Helix9 and dropped it off at Canvas Craft in Otsego, MN to have them make me a canvas case for my Helix9 shuttle. I do also have a Humminbird Ice Helix5 set up, and that bag does not fit the Helix9. I told them what I would like and showed them a couple pictures and am letting them create whatever they think will fit and work the best. I am looking forward to what they come up with.
I was just going to keep that setup in a milk crate, because it fit perfect, but that does not offer much protection to blowing snow and precip, while traveling on the sled. I do mostly walk when ice fishing, and pull my sled. I set-up a hub, crack a beer and pretty much stay there for the day. Occasionally I will move around, but usually leave the hub in one spot, and walk from there.
I am looking forward to what they come up with! I am surprised Humminbird does not have a little bigger bag for the 8/9/10.
Does anyone else have a custom ice setup for the Helix 8/9/10? lets see them
