Ron Iler thanks a lot. It was one of those things that just worked out. Those buckets could hold traps and game as well so it would work for a trapline rig too

American ingenuity! Nice setup.

Would be cool to see it in person.

You the best 👍

Great idea, love the application too bad I only have a 4wheeler and its built for mudding . It works for towing stuff but not carrying oh well keep up the nice video's

Great job on the build! May want to cosider applying thin black boat carpeting over the entire thing. Add a few rod holders too

shelzzy2006 thanks for the view and feedback. I considered doing the boat carpet but in the end I decided it wasn’t the right fit for this rig. The coating I put on is very durable and sheds water rather than absorbing and freezing. A few people have suggested rod holders but in the couple years I’ve used it I’ve never had a situation pop up where I wanted or needed them on it. They could always be added if need be though. Thanks again for the feed back and stay safe on the ice. Also, hit the subscribe button if you haven’t yet.

Nice set up

Awesome stuff! What are your dimensions?

Great job. Did you ever share the dimensions?

How often do you bottom out your suspension with all the extra weight on it?

Love it! Thanks for the video! I have a pretty heavy auger jiffy propane. Do you think this set up would be able to handle it?

Clintsilver94gt thanks a lot. You should have an easy time. Just clamp a big piece of plywood to the back and start sitting stuff on it and figure out what works. Good luck

Mike, Nice setup my man! Good job. See you mentioned fishing the bay. Noticed that it appears that you do not have studs on your track. How does the sled handle the bay ice without studs? Your help is appreciated!!!

@@themichiganwoodsman1372 thank you. My local trails are shared use and do not allow studs. Still want to be able to ride the trails and enjoy ice fishing with the same sled. Enjoyed your video and if you have any more about your setup or tips on the bay would love to watch them

Sweet set up I want to duplicate it. Did you extend supports out from the sled under the plywood for extra support out farther or is it just u bolted through the plywood ? Is that 1/2” plywood. Seems like if to much weight put in there the bolts would rip out of the plywood? Thanks for any reply and great job looks awesome!

Thanks for checking out the setup. I did not use extra support. The u-bolts come up through the bottom and there’s a small plate that serves as a washer that spans both studs of the u-bolt(Hope I’m making sense). It’s 1/2” plywood and I’ve grabbed the rack and lifted to slide the sled around in the garage without hurting anything.

@@themichiganwoodsman1372 thank you for responding! I have pretty much the same sled. Curious what your dimensions are for this just to get a idea.. it’s one of the best home made sled I’ve fishing mods I’ve seen on here.. take care !

Should work if you stay on a lake, but I have to do trail time to get to the hard to reach lakes. I'm guessing I would be fighting trees and brush with the extra width. Better off pulling a sled on narrow trails.

@themichiganwoodsman1372

You’re absolutely right. I’ve taken it on trails but not a great set-up for that. Not only the width, but the cantilevered weight makes the sled a little tippy in the trails. It’s great on the lake and alright on the way to the lake

How does the electric auger work?

mike giganti works great! I was skeptical at first but Went on several trips and the charge lasted the full weekend. This is only my second season with it but seems good. I knocked it over and it acted weird that day but no problems since. I really like it. Heard a lot of good on the strike master brand as well

How did you attach it to the sled?

Tygs thanks for the suggestion. I don’t have a use for them on this rig. I’m sure that might be a need for someone else out there but didn’t see the need for myself. There’s definitely room to modify or improve for different people though. Have a good one
