gonehunting Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have a 2004 Honda Rancher and I want to build some type of box for carrying ice fishing equipment (auger, 20# propane tank, vexilar, etc.) Just wondering if anyone had a picture of one they built. Just looking for ideas. Appreciate any suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonehunting Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have an otter fishhouse. I just don't want to pack it full everytime I go out. This way I can set up the house without unpacking everything. Better accessibility is the reason I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWadeS Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I saw some racks that attach to the back rack at the ice show I am not sure who makes them, maybe maddog gear? I know they have holders to mount to hold your auger but the rack was a box style and would hold a lot of stuff or 3 - 5gal buckets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnesotamusky Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Did anyone see that atv by the Jiffy booth at the icefishing show? It had a rack on the back that looked wide enough to carry a 20# tank. That's what I'm looking for. The one's that I've looked at don't look wide enough.

DinnerPail Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Three milk crates bolted together, holds a 20# cylinder and two 5 gallon buckets. My buddy calls it getto, works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogwalker Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 The milk crates work well for hauling bear bait buckets too. Many uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJCatfish Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 As far as auger mounts go, it's pretty hard to beat the Mad Dog Auger Mount. I tried to beat it doing it my own way, and now I have the Mad Dog. $40 well spent!Good Luck,MJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check tractor supply, Cabelas used to carry them,not sure if they do any more... I think Koplin makes them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chode2235 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I am looking to get one of those otter Monster Boxes for my ATV. They look sweet, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bturck Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I bought a rack for the back on my ATV from Cabellas. It is 3 circular hoops that fold up when not in use. Each hoop will accomadate a 5 gallon buckt. I also have two milk crates on the back ATV rack right behind the seat. For the auger I use my front rack mounted gun racks for the auger, secured with a bungie cord. It I'm going a long ways I put the auger in the sled and use the travel cover to keep the snow out. It works pretty good. good luck and hang on. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
