    LOL Neil and I were talking about taking the mini or the small down to our son to use for the winter while we are in Fl. He is renting at the end of little Sabago till May and I think he has rewound his tip-ups twice already, he looks light up the lake. He made some noise about how much fun they would be out on the ice. My luck I would loose them both right through it. Not sure which I would miss more.... the rotten kid or our precious egg!

    You obviously never heard of the Fire and Ice BBQ Competition. It's held ON the lake each winter. Surely the Ice in Maine isn't that thin..

    polaris 500x2, the extra length makes it pretty stable. the mount slides into the hitch reciever, ill send you some better pics, but it would need to be made custom for your bike. i dont think i would climb anything more than about 40 degrees with it, even then it might be better to back up the hill.

    the rear rack is rated for 400 pounds, i think i could mount the egg and still carry 2 kegs without a problem. maybe some guiness and a cherry wheat

    Better have a chain & lock on that. I don't know if anyone would steal your egg, but they'd sure steal the beer! :laugh:

    LOL I feel really bad Pete that you think I am such a whiner! :( LOL I have spent many a winter on the ice fishing with hubby and the boys. with 3 men in the family and just me to hold up the girly parts :whistle: I had to keep up or stay home. :huh: we had 2 ice shacks and one of them was even lavender :whistle: LOL it was a inside joke :side: But I did insist on having a small heater so I could warm up and heat lunch and coffee and coco for the boys. We would be out there from sun up to sundown some days.... We had a fat black lab that would watch for the flags and she would beat us to them and bark like crazy waiting for us to hurry up and get there. I have some good pics and stories. why do kids have to grow up??? LOL

    my brittany dove in thru the hole after a fish a few years back, i had to reach in under the ice and thankfully found a paw and pulled him back up. cant happen with the big belley he now sports. my dog doesnt bark at the flags, he points them
