What does it mean to be the category leader? Simply stated, it’s being the most trusted brand across the board, from price-range to price-range, buyer budget to budget. In ice fishing, it says a single brand is the uncontested choice at any given price. Say you earmarked $30 for a rod and reel combo, $20 for a tip-up, $300 for an ice fishing suit and $400 for a portable shelter. Selecting which brand to trust is easy as ice.

Now I never miss a flag. The Snow Shoe also handles big line and bait with ease and really takes a beating on fish house floors and pickup beds. These Snow Shoes are going to be flagging fish for years to come…” Read more online.
Frabill pro and dependable guide Eric Haataja speaks his piece on ice safety: “In my business, safety comes first. When guiding, I always start the day with a quick course on reading ice conditions, as well as what to do in case you do fall through—so the worst thing that happens is you end the day wet and a little cold.” Read more online.
