General Discussion / Clam conversion kit.

Looks to be a good piece to have . Is clam the only one to make one? I've looked for one and like most ice gear, "out of stock or out of season". Most say check back in October. Don't want to wait!!

I ordered a strikemaster 8in. Bought a Milwaukee M18 from home depot for $120.00. Hope that combo works.

General Discussion / Drill for auger.

Looking to get a 8in strikmaster this year and a drill for it. Something that will handle the 8in inch auger and the 10in plus ice you find up north. My 18v skill on the 6in auger petered out pretty quick last year and so did my arm. LOL. So want to see what others are using and what depth of ice you've gone through. What volt you got and how's it hold up. Thanks
Just seen a dewalt 20v,1/2in with two battery for $99.00. Anyone have one before I pull the trigger on it?

Got to be more than just four of us planning on a trip. Looking for idea's ,places to go. My plan is to start stashing some money back to do a trip. Mostly for gas , lodging. Not much for a guide service. Hotel's themselves are pricey enough. Fish on my "ice fishing radar" this year is northern pike, big walleye and big perch. I've pulled little ones through the ice but not anything of size. That's my goal this year. What's yours?

Who's making plans for next year besides me and where you thinking of going. I'm considering Houghton again but will be looking around. I enjoyed Petenwell lake in wi but long drive. Myself, can't wait. People tell me i'm crazy because I enjoy sitting on a frozen lake more than sitting on a lake in the summer. But hey, I was born in January.

Ice Fishing Pictures / 18in bass.

Caught at Houghton lake 2/18 on big minnow . Didn't have a scale to weigh. Had to reach down my 6in hole to pull him through.

Yes, free weekend was for everyone. Out of four days I only paid for two. Fishing was slow, very slow. Not as many people out as I thought there would be. Fished the public access behind rite aid. area is from 10fow to 5fow. Nobody caught much. Mostly dink perch and small pike. First day I decided to head out farther for deeper water. The deep water is about 1 1/2 miles or more out, I worked my way to about 1/2 mile total. Found 14fow. Caught a few gills . Was about to move when one pole I had in holder just took off. That was the 18in bass. What a pig. I had my 6in auger and had to reach down in the hole to grab him and pull it up. But was a good fight and thrill to catch. Caught a few pike on big minnows. Biggest was 19in. I felt kind of out of place. Everyone there uses 10in auger and me with a 6in. LOL. Moving around I used holes already drilled from previous days. Didn't get cold enough at night to freeze them back over. Still had a good time and would love to go back when fishing is better.

I'm still going. Doing the last minute, decide on where thing. probably going to be Houghton or Cadillac. Been looking at a lot of lakes up there, got more lakes than you can shake a pole at. Wanting to find a nice lake, doesn't have to be a big one that's little more out of the way. Not so crowded and pressured. I'll sit down tonight and pick one. Thanks, I'll report back about the big one that got away. LMAO
 Update, Heading for Houghton.
