2014-15 New Gear

[birz]

Now that summer is starting, we are only a couple months or less away from the release of the 2014-15 ice fishing product catalogs. What are people hearing for rumors, or hoping to see?

I was also looking around the internet for anything new for 2014 the other day. Especially new thermal houses or ice augers. Any little secrets anyone can let us in on?

I was hoping Ht would make a nice schooley with an good aluminum reel with a little bit of a breaking system.

I'm hearing that there is a new line of ice rods coming out from a very large player in the open water rod market that will blur the line between custom and factory rods. I am sure that it will be an ICAST award winner.

Maybe a Lithium Ion Auger from Strikemaster? That would be cool.

Sorry kids, el nino says no ice fishing this year!

I'm hearing there is a new MarCum LX-11. It is the same as the LX-9, but comes with Direct TV and Netflix installed.

John, who might that be? Take a look at the Fenwick Aetos, I think those lines are already blurred.

$2400.00?

whats messed up is a wireless/bluetooth connection to your phone by putting your phone hotspot on could easily make it possible. or just use an ipad

Picture in picture. The bottom of the lake and an episode of the Deadliest Catch in the upper right corner of the Marcum.

Lowrance is looking into a portable version of this...

Frabill has their new 2014-2015 catalog on their site.

Side entry Flip over shelters.

Two new ice rod cases (a lite and heavy duty one)

New straightline reels.

Might have to check out the new rod cases, looks like there are slots for the rods. Wish they had done side entry flipovers a long time ago. Neat idea.

I went to the otter outdoors HSOforum and clicked on the 2013-14 catalog. Once that opened up I was able to open the 2014 ice guide. Not sure if that is all the new 2014 gear. If it is not a lot of new stuff to offer.

Saw Eskimo came out with a propane auger this year...

For the past 3 years we've printed the clam catalogue and I haven't seen it yet.

[wanderlust]
