My 'new' snowmobile, finally!
« on: Nov 11, 2010, 09:19 AM »
All these years of ice fishing and I never owned a snowmobile.  I finally was able to purchase one that is good enough for me.  I sold my two permanent fish houses to fund it, so this year I am 100% portable!  I just need to get a tow hitch for my Otter, and I'm all set!  I can now get to more places easier and faster, without the worry of getting my truck stuck or even worse, falling through.  I think that has been my #1 fear!

Congrats! That sled looks like it's in great shape.

Congratulations!  Hopefully you have better luck with the snow then I did.

I bought one last year, and then we got hardly any snow  :'(

Snowmobiles are the way to go when you are on snow. A friend of mine had the same sled and it ran great. He tried to drive through a drift but it turned out to be ice, worked just fine after that!

Congrats on your new sled. You'll have so much fun getting to the places you could never get before. You'll wonder why you waited so long. Keep us posted on your adventures.
