Anyone used a Slush Box?

[travlingypsy]

I am interested to see if anyone has used any type of slush boxes and if what brand? Is there any problems with them as in not enough room for ice chips? Any info would be great!!

[LMITOUT]

Yes, they work great and prevent a mess of the fish house when the ice got thick. I used the one made by the same company that made Catch Covers. I'm not sure what their status is now. Last I heard they had sold to Nature Vision.

I like mine, but i'm not sure what brand it is. I know it was $50. They keep the floor a lot cleaner. I empty mine after every hole.

[travlingypsy]

I have heard the sides should be built higher is that true?

[wplatehunter]

I think the sides are fine.

a buddy of mine has one for his shack and I quite frequently use it. I'm not sure who makes it but it fits snug into the Catch Cover holes and keeps the floor nice and dry. Definitely worth the money.

Has anyone used one with a 10" auger?

[wplatehunter]

Mine is for a 10" auger and works good.

Why?

I've had great luck with them, they save a big mess in the house

I've seen them made by cutting a hole in the bottom of a plastic tote. Not sure what diameter the catch cover is but it would be slick if you could make a tube that stuck out of the bottom of the tote down into the hole a bit. Then nothing would get between the tote and the floor.

we just bought one last weekend and honestly it could be the greatest invention ever. it saves me from having to sweep up all the ice chunks on my floor. i would definitely recomend you buying one.

I built one about 2 weeks ago. Bought a 4.44 tote from Walworld and a 4.99 5gal bucket. Cut the hole in the tote, cut the bottom of the bucket off, and silicone the bucket in the hole....problem fixed for under $10.,

i bought a $4.99 sterilite tote and cut a 10" hole in it.

i can make 10 of these for the price of one at a store.

Exactly what I did about 5 years ago.
