It is only August, but the upcoming ice fishing season is right around the corner! Clam Outdoors has officially launched its new ice fishing products for this ice season. This launch includes over 65 new items that will be available for purchase at retailers and online. New products this season from Clam include a full revamped line of Fish Trap portable ice fishing shelters, new shelter & ice fishing accessories, a handful of new ice fishing rods, reels, and combs, a new and improved Pinhead Pro and Jointed Pinhead Pro and much more! The Clam Outdoors team has been developing and testing these new products over the past few years, and we are excited to bring all of these products to ice anglers this season. Some key products that are included in this launch include the following.


For the 2022-2023 ice fishing season, the Clam Fish Trap lineup of portable ice fishing shelters has been completely revamped. The new Fish Trap shelters now feature an XT door system, unlike anything ice anglers have seen before. These new door systems bring many advantages to ice anglers. The XT door system allows for easier entry and exiting from the shelters and provides additional height inside the shelter for additional headroom and comfort. For one-person shelters, the door systems are extra tall and allow anglers to walk in and out of the shelters without bending over. On two-person and larger Fish Trap shelters, the new door systems are a true side door with no additional poles near the doors that need to be adjusted. The location of the side doors allows anglers to walk in and out of the shelter without stepping over their gear or ice holes.  This revamped line of Fish Traps still offers all of the great benefits of portability, comfort, and quality ice anglers who have known with Fish Traps for over 40 years. 


Over the past few ice fishing seasons, Clam has focused heavily on developing its rods, reels, and combos. Clam has raised the bar for ice fishing rods by creating premium and specialized tools for ice anglers to use in any environment when targeting any species. For this season, Clam released multiple new rods, reels, and combos that ice anglers will be able to use this winter. The team at Clam wants to make sure that we offer ice anglers a wide variety of rods, reels, and combos that are high quality, available to anglers at a wide range of prices, and feature a variety of components.


There are a variety of new items in the Clam Pro Tackle lineup that anglers will want to look at adding to their tackle boxes this winter. Ice anglers know the Pinhead Mino and Jointed Pinhead Mino, which has been a staple in the CPT line. For the 2022-2023 ice fishing season, the Pinhead is new and improved as the Pinhead Pro and Jointed Pinhead Pro. The Pro version of this long-standing favorite is made of environmentally friendly Zinc Alloy that provides a unique flash, sound, and vibration in the water. Also new to the CPT line is a full line of Gaff Treble Hooks that are perfect for anglers looking to upgrade their old or stock hooks to the sharpest and strongest hook technology available. These hooks are available in multiple colors and sizes and come in feathered options. This year, other additions to the Clam Pro Tackle line include new colors of the ice angler favorites Tikka Mino and Silkie Jig Trailer that anglers across the ice belt know. 


There are many other new items in the Clam line for this upcoming ice fishing season that will be here before we know it.
