Man, how many times did you guys jump in?

You guys just keep jumoing in and in. Both the red suit and camo. Pretty neat.

I like the "walleye dan" stich on the back of the red suit.

Did you guys have ice picks?

Was that you in both suits?

How did you find that thin of ice?

Good show though!

She (Jessica Miles) did a nice job with that. Tom and I both went in twice, I had piks he didn't. The second time was a cold one. The suit is for real. Like Jessica said, "It is not a certified PFD". But who cares! Wouldn't you rather have a chance? IDI Gear is a company that is on the go, not sure about the one piece but they do have a lot in the works. I guess we better re-order after that piece.

Thanks,

Walleyedan

Now I remember, it was another face in the camo. grin.gif

This should shout out about IDI gear.

But you guys are still crazy in my book grin.gif. You guys jumped in like it was a hot tub.

All I can say is "It Floats". Walleye Dan proved it tonight.

Crazy, crazy, crazy, but it will save your life.

Or you can use various products from Mustang Survival that are PFD's and will keep warm as well as afloat. Arctic Armor is just another player - not the only one

I recorded the news on my DVR and showed the wife that segment and she said that I need to get one. I explained that it was ~$300 and her response was, "Your life is worth it and the peace of mind for me knowing that you are safe."

I am originally from California and it took her nearly two years before she was some what okay with me ice fishing. Since my birthday is in January, this will be my birthday present.

Walleye Dan, I am 6' 2" and 210 lbs what size do you recommend?

    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
