They're easily tow-able by hand.
I've been doing it for years with my Nanook.

Also - I'd say go to Bass Pro instead.

Thanks for the info Stoty. I have a popup now, but have always been interested in the flipovers.
Not so sure about BPS though. I was there last Saturday after the Radioworld seminar looking for a few ice fishing things (line,lures etc..) and came out empty handed. Sail and Gagnon's both have the same size or bigger ice fishing sections than BPS does. Also, last year I went there looking at survival suits, and ended up getting one at Sail for about $100 cheaper. I've only been to BPS twice, and will never go back. Not sure about the rest of the store, but there fishing section doesn't really seem to be any better than the others. Definitely not worth the drive IMO.

I run a clam nanook and a vex fl8. Works great on the bay. Couple good rods and reels and some spoons and you are in business. Just remember to keep your auger blades safe. Nothing worse then having to drill for 45 min to get through 6" ice lol

It's doable if your young and no snow on the ice. Try pulling a couple miles with a few inches of snow, Heart Attack going some place to happen. :o :roll:
Was out one day and pulled mine out on clear ice and it started to snow, at days end pulling back in, I had to stop about 20 times to get my breath. I thought I was going to have an attack.
