Getanet Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I have an insulated Eskimo Quickfish 3i, or maybe I should say had one. On my last ice fishing trip of the year some of the poles got tangled, and since it was getting later in the afternoon and I wasn't even set up yet, instead of taking my time, I did what any red-blooded American would do and pulled and swore and pulled even harder until I snapped one of the poles. I know those can be replaced, but this past weekend I was trying to get it set-up in my yard to find out what year mine was (2015 has different length poles than all other years) and low and behold it's really hard to get a hub set up when one of the poles is broken. So I wrestled around in my yard with it, broke a few more poles and gave it a few Hulk Hogan leg drops for good measure. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas for what you could do with a hub shell - or does anyone in the South Metro want an insulated hub shell? The shell is fine, no rips or tears, maybe some dirt/mud on it from our wrestling match. Otherwise it's going in the trash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech~~ Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Order replacement poles? Or sell it on C/list to the guy who has poles but burnt a hole in his with a sun heater! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papadarv Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Contact Eskimo, you may have a pop up with older hubs that need a change order. I had the larger 949I, 2013 version, where the poles failed to rotate in the hub during set-up or take-down causing the poles to break. Got worse in really cold temps. Eskimo sent hub update kits and new poles at no cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
