A friend once told me “There is no such thing as bad weather. Just bad clothing.”. When it comes to ice fishing, bad weather is expected. Bad clothing is not an option. I opted for the Frabill ice fishing suit from Glen’s Army Navy Store because of its many technical advances.
First, the suite is very functional and non-restrictive. Drilling holes and setting tip-ups happens with ease.
Second, the suit is well built and insulated. During a recent ice fishing tournament, the temperature was well below freezing and the wind was perpetually blowing. Some anglers left early because they felt cold. My Frabill ice fishing suit kept me warm the whole tournament!
Third, the suit has no lack of pockets! During my last ice fishing trip, I inserted my gear into my pockets and still had some pockets empty. One day I may fill all 12 pockets.
Fourth, the loop on the outside of the jacket is really great to hang gear. I hang my The Fish Grip lip griper for quick access during a FLAG UP!
Fifth, the padded knees are priceless! How many times do you get down on one or both of your knees while on the hard and cold ice? Exactly!
Sixth, the value of the front zipper on the bibs is only appreciated when Nature calls. This technical advancement is priceless. 😉
Having ice finished in bad weather with bad clothing, I can fully appreciate all the technical advances of the Frabill ice fishing suit. I am very happy with it and highly recommend it!
