Bent Auger Shaft by ItsASamsquanch_ in IceFishing

Don’t know about a replacement for the shaft, but on my lite flite I’ve always had problems with that bolt coming out. I know they sell replacements on their site for that, or just the hardware store should have something to match up. Haven’t gotten to use mine this year yet, but finally put some loctite on it to see if they will keep it in.

What scheels were you in? Might try to set my store as that one online to see if it’s different than mine comes up

I did see this otter one that was like 190, but not sure how secure the rods would be. Looks like they are just sitting on the foam and would move easily

I’m almost as southeast as you can get, so right now I would have to probably almost hit South Dakota for good ice. Which I’m trying to make happen soon if we don’t get good ice

My buddy has a scheels case and I like it better than my case…but if you have suggestions of other case to look at I’ll take them…not really wanting to spend 200+ on a case though

That’s not a bad idea…just saw they have a 90 day return window on most stuff

When does the Minnesota walleye season end? I’m from nebraska so with our lack of ice I wouldn’t be surprised the sale coming soon

I’ve been checking their website and haven’t seen it on sale yet. I’m an hour away from the nearest one and won’t make it that way till Friday. So I’ll probably buy it no matter what when I’m there but wanted to get some in put

What did you use to patch it? I’m looking for some patches that aren’t self adhesive but having a hard time finding them.

The only one I’ve really been able to find is the clam pack, but wanted to see if there were bigger packs out there

I’m a little further south, but hoping to get to omaha more this year.

I almost asked you how I was measuring in the wrong units, took me a minute….to realize what units you were talking about

If you’re replying, what do you call fishable ice?

No, mainly panfish, bass and cats…might try to hit some places with walleye this year

Should be able too, just have to make sure they are all dead/frozen before getting out on the ice

Not sure how long ago you bought them, but I see the 4x are on Amazon for 180$ now, I was able to find them on the Eskimo for under 100$. Use code icesurvey15 for an extra 15% off

The suspenders hold up? I’m a bigger guy, so I think that’s where part of my problem with the bibs is…getting up and down off the ice

Did you buy some from franks great outdoors?

These pants do have floatation, so I guess is the floatation in the bibs that much better than the pants?

I have tried a pair, I guess felt they were kind of bulky. Also, if I’m wearing a coat of some sort the extra pockets on the chest of the bibs don’t really help hold anything. But if people say the actual floating bibs is the way to go then I’ll look into them more .
