How Improvements to Gear Impact Ice Fishing
Year after year I am amazed at how improvements to lures, shelters, electronics and technology have made my time on the ice more efficient, more effective and more comfortable. These improvements have allowed me to spend my time maximizing opportunities while on a body of water. With many of the changes that I see each year, the one thing that hasn’t changed for me in the past 14 years is my main heat source. Since the Mr. Heater Big Buddy Heater came out in 2004, it has been a reliable constant for my spring, fall and winter outings. I prefer the big buddy because while on the ice I am typically fishing from a large 2 or 3 person Clam portable fishhouse. The Big Buddy heats it up quickly and efficiently. Whether on a trip with friends, a solo outing, or a trip with kids I have confidence in the reliablity of my Big Buddy heaters.
