Altered the stock FishTrap seat assembly to sport a 3/4" pin deck plate, which my boat seat fits into nicely   ;D     Had to make the seat removable like that for the shack to fit under my tonneau cover.

I made a monster spud out of 1" Black Iron pipe and 1/2" bar stock steel.  With one good slam, if this monster doesn't go through the ice I'm confident it's safe!



I also made this two bucket/auger carrier for my sled.  Made a similar rack for the ATV for 3 buckets and retractable extension arms to carry my 1 man Commando flip over.  Will find the pics and post them.

OK found the pics of the ATV Bucket/Shelter Carrier I made. It has telescoping poles that when locked, is strong enough to hold my Frabill Commando for transport in the back of the pickup as well as on the ice but I usually tow the shelter once out there. As a side note, the extended poles saved my butt a few years back after getting off 4th Lake; I gave the quad too much gas and as I drove up the ramp the wheeler tried to flip backwards which would've definitely ruined my day and possibly worse but the bars served as a wheelie stop preventing it from dumping over on top of me! Remember that one Combsey? Ha!

Cool stuff Mike.  My name is Luke and i'd like to pick your brain some time on fishing up north.  I'm freinds with tony and luke from fish307.  Right now I still have my boat in on Lake George and have been fishing every weekend.  Getting pumped for Ice.  Gonna take my boat out next sunday, finally and get it winterized.

Beautiful lures.
The thinner the ice, the more anxious is everyone to see whether it will bear.
