Picked up Nixmkt Tom last Saturday and did my annual, pre-season jaunt to the local area stores to check out their ice gear, tackle, equipment & clothing.

Gander Mtn: Good Tackle & Rod Selection & Tub/Sled Selection
Dick's. Hardly anything in Ice Gear
Fin: Nice Tackle, minimal rod selection, carrying 2 Clam Shanty's
Kames: Power Augers, but hardly any ice gear.

None of the stores had any Ice Shanty's on Display.

Without a doubt whatsoever, Mark's in Ravenna is still tops in Ice Gear.

I agree 100%,selection,pricing and just an all around fantastic guy! Hands down Marks is leaps and bounds above the competition. Only downside is he allows Banker there. Oh well can't win them all.

Mark is a great place to go for your gear.

Don't forget to check out the Rodmakers shop as they also have a great selection.

I shop at marks and I will say he is a good local shop. Best around here.

You may have to travel a bit further but if you want to compare many manufactures equipment. You have to make a trip up to http://www.franksgreatoutdoors.com/ice-fishing?cat=188&limit=96&p=2. I was amazed with the amount of ice equipment under one roof. They have it set up outside as well. They have shanty days coming up Dec 11-13. Its a good time.
