Beaver Dam Hole Covers

[Doe]

Does anyone use the Beaver Dam hole covers?  I ordered three yesterday and wonder if it was a good purchase.  http://www.beaverdamtipup.com/item-detail.cfm?ID=24

Doe,  Those look interesting!  Can you let me know it those things are frisbees? or a legitimate hole cover.  Thanks  -Barleydog

No problem.  I figured what's $12 and I also ordered one of their beanies.  8)

Look forward to your report on the covers as well.  I was going to order a few items (covers too) but the shipping was almost as much as the items ($34 for shipping priority).  Canceled my order because I felt like it was a serious gouging on their part.  Still thinking of ordering the 3 pack of covers.

Did you notice the Packer colored ones   Hope they work out well for you.

I went with the green and gold ones because I do a lot of night fishing and figured they would be easier to find than the black ones.  The shipping for a beanie and three hole covers was six something.

I'll probably go with the green & cheese colored covers because green is my favorite color

Come on Grizz don't hate the Pack!  You know those guys don't party anything like your "Love Boat" group of convicts and misfits.   Be happy the Packers are in the basement this year... It won't last long!

I found myself cheering the Pack on when they played Da Bears .  It's too bad that the whole NFC North Div. stinks this year. Maybe next season.

The Arctic covers look really nice though, I'll probably bite the bullet & get the 3 pak-in the green of course

They came yesterday.  FWIW my mom said they were made out of 1'' foam.  I'm hoping they're durable.

I made myself a set of hole covers for reel cheap. Bought a rollup foam pad for use under a sleeping bag; it'a abot 3/4 inch thick; $6 at Walmart. Used a 5 gallon pail to trace circles onto the pad, cut them out with scissors, I think I got 6 covers out of one pad; the pads come in differant colors. You can then slit them and make a center hole for the tip. Took me under 1/2 hour.

I use the Styrofoam insulation 1" thick that is used for building construction, and cut a slit in it for my tip up. The tip up sits on the foam very nicely.

Seems to me that they were a bit light for their intended purpose.

They work great; only improvement I'm going to make is to attach a 1oz weight to them; I was using them during a very windy snowstorm to keep the holes free of snow; got a flag and was playing the fist, cover got loose from tip, went blowing across the lake. It fetched up against my car on shore; wind was blowing 20 - 30 with higher gusts

Sorry for such a late reply.  They held up pretty good over the season.  I use them as a knee cushion when I get a flag, so they wont blow away.
