hunt4food Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 OK guys and gals. I just saw the wierdest ice fishing gadget on hsolist. I thought I had everyting I could possibly need for ice fishing, but check out Item number: 7123080597 on hsolist. That is beyond my wildest dreams. Has anyone ever seen one of these? Could it possibly work?? What other unique ice fishing gadgets have you all come up with?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyfishwilldo Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 That is definatly unique. Seems like a lot of trouble to go through to possibly kill yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutty Fisherman Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 At least if you had it on the boat and the ice broke you wouldn't get wet. I saw the post when he had the boat and all for sell. He said it goes about 25 MPH. But I think that still would be scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigers_07 Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 i think it would be handy if there is no snow on the lake and you didn't have a 4-wheeler. but there is a chance of it taking your leg off some how Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozen toes Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 There are several of these running around my area. I would love to make one, they are very useful on ice for trapping and getting around on the ice for fishing. They are just like anything else, use common sense around them and they are fine.

hunt4food Posted December 23, 2004 Author Share Posted December 23, 2004 I suppose it would be pretty neat for thin ice, but what happens when you get half way across the lake and something breaks? If the ice was not safe to walk on, you would be stranded until some guy came along with another one to pick you up?? I thought I had seen it all until this came along. I can't stop thinking about it. I have an old Jon boat...HMMMM. I bet a 20 horse Briggs would really get you to the honey hole quick!!! You would definitely need a windshield then! Man, I would love to see that!! I am laughing just thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozen toes Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 One guy here has one made with a snowmobile engine . One thing about it, it reallllllly flies. That is a little big for my taste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psegriz Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 I have a friend who likes to tinker. Built his own version of a go devil, his own airboat, even thaught about building his own helicopter. If I show him a picture of this I'd bet he'll dig through his shop to find all the stuff and mcgyver something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigeye Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 I was talking to a buddy of mine just the other day about something real close to that same idea except I wanted to use the powerhead off my power auger as the drive unit. There goes another patent idea out the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
