CUSTOMIZING YOUR SLED FOR ICE FISHING

Having your gear at your fingertip will help you improve your fish catching ability.

A few of my favorite accessories I add to my Ski Doo Expedition is the Clam Lock gear pocket, cooler bag, and rod holders. The rod holders come in multiple versions 1,2 or 4 potions holder. I have mounted multiple base plates to a variety of spots on my sled to maximize my fishing abilities. A single rod holder next to the handlebars so when fishing off my seat I can easily set my rod in it to rebait or take a fish off. A 4-position holder on my trap tub for having four rods always rigged and ready. I also have a base mounted to the front side of my tub so I could set a dead stick in it and fish two lines if needed.

I used the Clam lock system to mount my Vexilar and Lowrance GPS in a position that I can easily view the screens and see my rod tip to detect the bite. There are so many Clam accessories you can put on the Clam Lock system to customize your fishing rig.

Adding a set of auger mounts to the front of your sled keeps your Clam drill plate secure and out of the snow and slush when traveling across the lake.

The other addition to my sled is I added a set of CA Pro skis. I have been running these

skis for 2 years now and I have put hundreds of miles on them in some of the harshest conditions. The CA Pros skis are exceptionally durable and add an extra inch and a half of width over the stock skis I replaced. Extra width gives you much more stability when traveling across the lake and the extra width also helps when you are going through deep snow or slush as they help you float on top instead of sinking down and pushing it.

My Expedition got a little tippy when I added my fish trap to the back of my sled, so I highly recommend adding a set of CA Pro skis to your sled for added stability and safety.

Happy Hook Sets,
