$:-\$ Bought a bit(Aheeeemmmm) of ice gear last week...

Here is all the new gear I have purchased over the summer and fall...I still have to add all my gear from last year( which is double ) to these boxes including all of my teardrops and small ice jigs

....The life of a hardwater addict 8) My whole collection consits of 100+ Northland tackle Jigs and spoons

...and hundreds of Misc. small jigs...I think I am ready for first ice. Now I just need a few Custom Jigs and Spins tackle kits to top it off!

Bought another mag sheild for the vex...(Bought one last year, it scratched up really easy)

And lots of stickers and decals for this years new equiptment sled and pails

I love frosties! They glow a loooooong time.

If I bought that much stuff at once my wife would smother me in my sleep!..................
Thats why I don't tell her.

Don't we all FK ??

CNY Farmer,

Theres not as much as it looks..well

enough.....Different applications for different species and water body's...You fish soft water...right? You can never have too much stuff...

By the way, it will get used

When fishing on the Quebec side I can use up to 5 lines....Not that it matters.

Wow thats a lot of stuff, either you must make some good allowance money, or you working at subway now with BBR?

With the cost of all those jigs, you could have bought a boat! But being so picky and sneezing and laughing at other peoples rides, I guess youll just stay in your 12 footer for now!

Cya on the ice!

You mean 14 footer

For what it's worth Ian, Astro boats are crap. Allowance? You have used that one already

Why make stupid remarks about people you don't even know..or think you know? Your not funny at all dude.

Oh ya, by the way

hookemandcookem · « **Reply #14 on:** Oct 14, 2006, 10:45 PM »

Dont you just hate it when you have to buy fishing stuff "Just because its a good deal". I got a few butt chewings open water for that reason.

Yeah your right there Tipup Two maybe even quadrupled just this year alone and no I don't dare take a pic of my latest and greatest purchases as somebody might turn me into the the nearest psych ward and that just wouldn't be right with ice season awaiting at the door . Just as a hint though it's 12 new ice rods alone let alone jigs and big ticket items where one was just not enough . LOL

And you two Canucks rattling your sabres before ice is on just relax and keep the petty nonsense out of it . OK ?

We're Iceshantyers first and foremost .

I was looking at a Snow Bear this afternoon and I figured that if I bought it I might have to live in it after the divorce and it isn't that roomy.

It was tempting, but very hard to justify.

vancouvercanuck · « **Reply #23 on:** Oct 16, 2006, 05:27 PM »

That's nothing compared to what Trapperdirk usually picks up. That would be what he has in his hands after five minutes in the tackle shop...............

NickP · « **Reply #24 on:** Oct 16, 2006, 05:36 PM »

Not iceshanty stuff.... the decals for various companies I.E. vexilar, genz, etc

Ice fishing stickers to decorate my jetsled lol

Check out their websites, I know Vex has a "pro shop". I just bet Ice Team will sell you crap too.

I spent enough myself with a new quikflip III shack and aqua-vu scout. So I know that it adds up quick

You can purchase them pretty cheap, usually no more that a few bucks...The bigger ones cost about $5. A great use for them as some of them have been sitting in the basement for a few years...

icejunky · « **Reply #28 on:** Oct 17, 2006, 09:00 AM »

With the stickers you can also get some tossed in with most bigger purchases, I know I got some vex stickers with my vex, and whenever I place a marmish order I always ask for a sticker or two, and they gladly throw them in.

TGF · « **Reply #29 on:** Oct 17, 2006, 07:58 PM »

Yeah those Marmish guys are quite generous

Nice gear T-up2
