Snobear get people talking, we get lots of questions about operating them as well as general questions about the machines.  Let me answer a few here.

What is a SnoBear

A SnoBear is a mobile ice fishing hut. Equipped with wide tracks and skis for easy travel on ice and snow and an enclosed cab to keep the occupants warm. The key to the operation is the four holes in the floor, allowing you to fish from inside the machines without ever having to go outside.

How Many People can fish inside a SnoBear?

The SnoBear is designed to comfortably fish four anglers inside the cab.

Where are SnoBear made?

SnoBear are manufactured in Isanti, MN, USA, right in the middle of the ice belt.

How much does a SnoBear Weigh?

Although it varies by each configuration, SnoBears are approximately 3500lbs (1600kg).

How much ice is needed for a SnoBear?

SnoBear recommends 10″ of ice before driving your SnoBear on your local lake or rivers. 

If the body of water you are travelling on is known to have an inconsistent thickness of ice or at risk of wind breaking it up, it is best to wait for thicker ice.  We wait for 16-18″ before we start taking customers out on Lake Winnipeg.

Does a SnoBear Float?

While they won’t float like a boat, the foam in the walls keeps them buoyant, allowing them to float at the surface; this allows the occupants to escape in an emergency.

How fast does a SnoBear travel?

A Snobear can travel at 20+MPH with some configurations reaching speeds greater than 22MPH on groomed trails.

Do you have any questions about SnoBears? Please contact us.
