10/15/2018 08:26AM I bring my Vexilar on shorter trips where weight and space is not an issue. We fish around 6 hours a day and I have had it last through a 4 day trip before. I mostly like having it for early season trips where I might be willing to drill more than a couple holes. |

10/14/2018 09:44PM I don’t think I could ice fish without a flasher. I bring my flasher into the hot tent at night to thaw a little. For that matter the rods and tip ups come into too otherwise the spools freeze up overnight in all but the warmest of winter conditions. |

10/14/2018 09:25AM Thank you for the reply tg... I've never even used a flasher let alone taken one on a trip so any info is appreciated. |

10/12/2018 10:14PM I use a Marcum M3 with a bioenno 10 amp hour lithium battery. Most of my trips are about 3-4 days in length and I’ve never run my battery dead on a trip. I fish a lot but camp chores and early darkness cut into the actual fishing time (maybe 10-12 hours in a trip). If you’re really concerned pack an extra battery. I do love the weight savings of a lithium battery. |

10/12/2018 08:11PM For those that take a vexilar on your winter trips...how long does the charge on your flasher last? How many days and how long each day can one expect? |
