Arctic Armor - Late Ice

[Hotspotter]

I got a chance to try out my Arctic Armor suit for the first time this year and I was very pleased to say the least!

I was most impressed with the built in leg-gaiters, the roomy and felt lined pockets, and best of all, the padded knees for kneeling on rough/sharp ice. This suit is a hole-hopper's dream, and we did a bunch of running and gunning this week.

The added safety of a floating suit was icing on the cake, and will be mandatory gear for me esp. when traipsing on early or late ice.

No kidding Joel, I'll add that I've logged several long days on the ice with the Arctic Armor and it is the real deal!

I was recently in Canada fishing outside 2 full days last weekend, logged on 120 miles on ATV riding across the lakes with temps below zero and this suit kept me very warm. There is no wind penetration with this suit!

I've found it darn near impossible to have wet pant legs when drilling holes all day. No more cold or wet knees!

I've been on the ATV on melting lakes with inches of water soaking everything, but the suit kept me 100% dry when everything else was soaked.

Well worth every single penny.

Man, wish I was wearing it yesterday on the lake! I was getting soaked from the water/slush on the surface, and this was with rainpants, and a duck hunting coat. I was riding the wheeler across the lake going 20-30 mph. Steady mist, with oversize tires on the wheeler lead to one soaked fisherman!

When the water temps finally warm up, someone needs to jump in with this suit on and report back. Make sure Rick has his camera rolling.

I would love to see how well they work.

[ChuckN]

I have oversized tires on my wheeler too and any water on the ice....your soaked. Mix a side wind...more soaked, one cold steady shower.

[Deitz Dittrich]

LaZy... Once the water temps get going.. I'll be the guinea pig... I'll jump in the lake and see if she floats!

[Paul Waldowski]

Dietzer,

I wanna be the guinea pig Looks more and more like I will be living very close to the water

[Ray Esboldt]

I have been nothing but pleased and impressed with my suit. I think I wore unsuitable clothes for so long that I can't believe how comfotable quality outerwear can be.

However, unlike Deitz, I hope I to never test out its flotation capabilities.

The weather report is looking pretty good for this weekend can we expect a floatation report on monday?

[Deitz Dittrich]

lol.... NO

Sounds to me like a good opportunity to shoot some video and add it to the video forum!

I truly believe my Arctic Armor suit was the best thing I purchased last winter. I really don't know what else to say that could express my opinion better about this product.

I really need to give WalleyeDan a big Thank You for bringing this product to our attention.

[pegleg]

I totally agree with you Hanson. Best thing I purchased this winter and I realized that the first day I bought it. New Year's Eve riding the 4 wheeler in from 4 miles out on Mille Lacs with about 8" of water on the ice. I was totally dry and warm while the other guys I was with were cold and soaked. Thanks Dan!

[Blake]

dumb question, but how much are these suits???

[pegleg]

Click on Guide locator at the top of the page and go to Walleye Dan's HSOforum. Go to his store and you will see Arctic Armor with all the info you need... Go for it, you won't regret it.

Deizt, you could hug a marshmellow and float. Put me in a double-x and we'll see if it floats.

[harvey lee]

Thats exactly what I thought. Now, put me in the suit and if I float it will then float a tank.

[Northlander]

Get Poutslayer a suit and if he floats you know they are golden.

[Cove]

Guys, good to get some reports on the Arctic Armor.

[huntmup]
