I am with Kurt, I love ice fishing, I always claim it to be my favorite type of fishing, but seem to do it less and less as the years go by.
Fighting the cold, loading all the gear, sometimes drinking a few to many ice cold Busch lights, then packing up. It gets a little less desirable each season.
My old model 30 still gets it done, but if I was to upgrade I think I would stick with gas, in an 8 inch hole, my big 10 inch is heavier, and more work lugging it around...haha
