Default Re: Ice Fishing Tips for First Timers.........

I made a ice fishing sled using a pair of old skis, a little plywood and a milk crate. ( Seen at the beginning of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vac0G1TOovE )

It served me well over the years, but had one flaw. It was narrow and if the snow on the ice was deep, one ski would fall into my footprints the sled would tip over. It was only an issue in deep snow. Anyway I bought a Jet Sled Jr. It was only around $30 and gave my old sled to someone on IceShanty. If I were ever to make another one I'd make it wider which would solve the tipping issue in deep snow.
