dealer Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 double diamond makes ice saws $200 im not sure you can go to doublediamond.com he lives in plato mn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Brad I use a Fishtoys saw and to me is it is by far the best that I have use to date. Fishtoys are also one of our sponsors and Wayne takes a lot of pride in what he turns out. You will not be disappointed with Fishtoys saws I know that I'm not.

Gissert Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Ditto on the Fish Toys saw. I bought one last year, and dont use the chainsaw anymore. You can even cut circles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 opps forgot to mention that you can do that. When I go out on first is I only take my ice saw with now as you can chip the hole with it and cut it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laska Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Fish's Ice saw... all I gotta say $120 new I believe it pays itself off very quickly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Brad click on the Fishtoys logo under the bowfishing and spearing header and that should help you out alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 yea I looked at that but thought that nils also makes a saw. I will probably just get the fishtoy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenn57 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 i will also give a nod towards fishtoys icesaw!!!!! couple years ago at the ice show i had a conversation with a guy from reeds, he said about every icesaw they sold came back because of real poor quality, so be careful on what you buy!!!!!

mrklean Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I have a fish toys one bought it last year great saw, they sell them at cabelas and you can order them from him direct. I looked into the nils ones but heard they arent that great, better augers then saws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 I thought I seen them at cabelas before but I wasn't sure if it was nils or fish toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrklean Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 they sell both there. If you ever want to try my saw out let me know i only live 10 min away from you pretty much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJ1657 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 A little off topic but I thought i'd throw this tip out. A hard sided gun case works great for transporting ice saws. Keeps the edges from getting banged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad B Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 they sell both there. If you ever want to try my saw out let me know i only live 10 min away from you pretty much I'll have to take you up on your offer to try it out. A good test spot would be the lake you live on. how thick is the ice out there. was there last year and did good on the crappies. I'll contact you so check all the sites we follow.

hawkeye43 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 My son bought a nils a few years ago, used it 2x, then took my fishtoy saw for a season. He bought a fish toy saw, but had a hard time selling the nils Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
