are you ice fishing people happy with these cleats

Wherever there is ice (no matter how thick or thin)...the cleats will work. Most of the time the lakes are snow covered and the cleats are not needed. But, if you really want to feel secure...put them on. Trust me...you will remain vertical.

Sorry...I am not an ice fisher. In fact, I am a 76 yr old woman who has had both hips replaced. Fell four years ago on black ice while walking my dog & broke my wrist. Thus, my fear of falling. Not fearful any longer a long as I'm wearing these trekkers. Still have a dog ( my third retired racing greyhound) that I walk 4-5 times each day. I live in a Chicago suburb & we've had a "powerful" winter...still, no problems.

yes! very good o ice. Just enough traction. If you have snow pack on top too, they will pack snow but clean out very quickly. They never slip off of my Bogs and are easily cleaned of mud/ice with the tap of a wooden stick or broom handle. I just leave them on my ice fishing boots year round.

i do nor use them for ice fishing. i walk on an icey road 1/2 mile roundtrip for the mail 6 days a week and they are great in any ice.

They are very supportive and will save your wrist from bending in a fall on any surface, pavement or ice. However I don't think they would be good for ice skating based solely on the fact that they will get wet from the ice upon contact and start to harden up and might even run dye. Depending on how much your falling of course. I can't see a better choice for support though. They rock!

The person who told me about them is a runner. I love them and/but they occasionally slip off/need to be adjusted if very sticky ice/snow so they're highly recommended AND be cautious!

I found them cumbersome. We all bought a pair for a wilderness kayak trip in Alaska last year and the fit for me was ok. The fingers were too long so I had no dexterity at all. Couldn't size down or would have been too tight! Grip is good but if you are fly fishing, no way could you attach a fly or leader.... they did however keep my hands warm like a wet suit would.. if your hands sweat you would want to wear a liner. Hope this helps.

I wear mine cutting grass, snowblowing, and shoveling. I have not had a problem with these yet. I am very happy with these.

I'm happy with them. I use them on a garden tractor for snow plowing and they're as good as the ones I wore out after having them on the tractor year round for 8 years.

I walk 3 miles (round trip) at least 3 times a week on a plowed road in the dark. There are usually bare spots and icy spots during the winter. I get a season's wear out of a pair. The steel points wear a little but they are still very effective on ice.

Yes, They also work great for football cleats too. I haven't had any ankle issues. Not to bulky.

They are wonderful for the money! Took them with me on an Alaska cruise and observed all the wildlife with them. They performed very well and I would recommend them

Mine took an unfortunate crash to the ice off the four wheeler while crossing a lake and not one of my items were busted. I use mine for all my ice fishing gear, works great

They fit true to size with room to grow. Wheels dont turn as fast as hockey inline skates and wear fast. All and all, we've been happy with these. They have decent ankle support, too.

Yes. They are an excellent quality skate with great performance and stability.

No. You have to get them sharpened. Most rinks or sporting goods stores will do it for $5

I would think pretty good.. I use them for snow blowing in the winter, but they fit well and don't move around. They are well made.

They are good wheels, suitable for the purpose. I too walk several miles/wk, and find them good. They are not skateboard quality,( which are my preference), but for a buggy with 100 lbs or less, on cement sidewalks they seem tbe durable. If you are on gravel or uneven dirt roads, it may not be enough.But the buggy is great, in general and much better and more useful than the cheaper wire baskets I have used. Ive had mine, used regularly for several months, and I find little to complain about. ( b/c the wheels swivel easily, and the sidewalks in my neighborhood, tilt for runoff, they tend to follow the tilt. Only complaint I have. They are good wheels, suitable for the purpose.
