Fishing Gear: Frabill Ice Scoop

March 10, 2022 By Thomas Allen

Frabill Ice Scoop

Description and Application: Keep your wintertime ice-fishing hole free of ice and slush with Frabill’s heavy-duty scoop. The extra-large handle doubles as a 30-inch measuring device for either ice depth or fish length and the ladle cleans out the hole with minimal effort. It’s durable and will provide years of use and more fish making it to the hot grease.

Staff Perspective: I’ve been through numbers of scoops over the years, but this one just won’t break. It’s easy to locate in the bottom of a shelter sled, and I love the long handle because you can reach the hole and clean out the slush without bending over too far. This is the only scoop I keep handy.

Cost:$22.99
