Modern Ice Fishing
Welcome to Modern Ice Fishing. We specialize in all things ice fishing aimed directly at the modern ice angler. The modern ice angler demands comfort and mobility on top of everything else. If the fish are not biting, they will move until they find an active pod of fish. If the fish are biting, they want to remain as comfortable as possible to allow them to stay on top of the fish.
To that end, we offer products that make being mobile a reality. You will find portable ice fishing houses from the biggest names in the industry like Eskimo portable ice shelters and Eastman portable ice tents. Todays permanent ice fishing houses are easier to move around as well, with a wheelhouse moving around far easier than permanents from yesteryear.
Of course to fish through the ice you need a hole. We offer a full line of ice augers to meet every need and budget. Gas ice augers are a staple of many "run and gun" anglers today as they allow many holes to be punched in a very short time. You will find all the great brands in gas ice augers like Strikemaster gas ice augers (LazerMag Xpress, Mag 2000, Strike-Lite, Jiffy gas ice augers (Stealth, Legend, Model 30), and Eskimo gas ice augers (Shark Z71, Shark Z51, and Quantum). For those that want external power, but don't want to worry about mixing gas or breathing in toxic fumes we offer Strikemaster 12V electric ice augers. For the beginner and the early ice warrior there are the hand ice augers. Today's models are far superior to the models of old in terms of cutting rate and weight. Check out our great selection including the best selling Strikemaster Mora hand ice augers and fast cutting Strikemaster Lazer hand ice auger. For those that already own a hand ice auger and want a cheap way to make a pseudo power auger we offer a cordless drill ice auger attachment.
To make sure that you are on top of fish and matching your presentation to the mood of the fish we offer a wide range of ice fishing flashers. It is truly amazing how much utilizing a flasher can improve your success on the ice. We offer the Vexilar FL-8 flasher, the Vexilar fl-12 flasher, the Vexilar FL-18 flasher, and the Vexilar FL-20 flasher. The Vexilar has been the standard by which flashers have been measured for decades. An impressive competitor to the Vexilar, Marcum Technologies has its own line of flashers. The Marcum VX-1 flasher, Marcum LX-3 flasher, and Marcum LX-5 flasher are impressive in their own right with higher power and bottom zoom on all models. In addition to those major brands, we offer links to other flasher manufacturers including Humminbird ICE Flashers (Ice 35, Ice 45, Ice 55) and Lowrance Ice Machine Flashers (X67C and M-68C) which using LCD technology.
A key component to being able to spend long periods on the ice is staying warm. Today's selection of portable propane heaters is both large and impressive. Choose a flameless model from the line of Coleman catalytic portable propane heaters. The Coleman heaters are both safe and efficient and designed for indoor use. For more heat output check out the Mr. Heater portable propane heaters. The Mr. Heater heaters have outputs up to 27,000 BTU/hr with models for both indoor and outdoor use. They have been a staple of ice anglers for years.
We offer high quality rods to ensure that you catch the fish you have been targeting with your flasher. Find Genz Stix designed by Dave Genz himself especially for ice fishing. The St. Croix Legend ice rods come with a special spring bobber setup that is ultra sensitive but sturdy for a lifetime of use.
Lastly we cannot forget the underwater ice fishing camera. With all the major brands and models including the Aqua Vu Fish TV underwater camera, the Aqua Vu Scout underwater camera, the Aqua Vu Quad underwater camera, the Aqua Cam underwater camera, and the Marcum underwater cameras we have the industry covered. Use this technology to get a view of what the fish are seeing and how they are reacting to your presentation. It brings the fish's world right into yours and allows you to get inside a fish's head.
As can be seen, the modern ice angler has all the tools to go on a "search and destroy" mission across the ice. Implicit in this philosophy is continually moving until you find a hot bite and then remaining comfortable in that space once you have found it. Thankfully the ice fishing industry has many innovative products to ensure you time on the ice is enjoyable, comfortable, and fruitful.
