® HIGH PERFORMANCE ICE FISHING GEAR 2009 Product Catalog Devils Lake, North Dakota HIGH PERFORMANCE FISHING SHELTERS · ICE AUGERS · CHISELS · ACCESSORIES HIGH PERFORMANCE ICE FISHING GEAR It’s 2009 and The New Color of Ice Fishing is RED. High Performance. That’s been our mantra for decades. Since 1960 Eskimo has designed, engineered, and manufactured high performance into every product. Eskimo ice augers have set the bar for quick starts, high RPM, fast cutting, ergonomic designs and power. From the “best value” Stingray power auger, to the most powerful ice auger in the world, the Shark Z71, Eskimo has your high performance needs covered. For every high performance Eskimo ice auger, there is a demanding ice angler, so it makes sense that we would also be the leader in high performance ice shelters. Eskimo is the only true full line high performance ice auger and shelter manufacturer in the world and we love what we do. We deliver high performance by constantly pushing our design and engineering department to develop new products that exceed your performance needs and expectations. For 2009 we are excited to introduce our new ESKAPE Hard Water Series of high performance ice shelters. We have spent the past 2 years interviewing ice anglers (just like you) from all over hardwater country and asked a lot of questions about their wants and needs. We listed all the comments, suggestions, issues, recommendations, likes, dislikes, and complaints. We then went to work designing a complete line of high performance ice shelters like the world has never before seen. From the ground (ice) up, we addressed everything on our list, everything you asked for, to put the Eskape Hard Water Series of ice shelters in a league of their own. Ease of use, comfort, durability, portability and unprecedented patent pending features are the corner stones of this truly innovative ice shelter line up. I believe that once you see everything the new Eskape Hard Water Series on pages 8-11 has to offer, your response will be WOW, these truly ARE high performance ice shelters. Yes, the new color of high performance ice fishing is RED and I am proud and excited to be a part of this revolution on ice. I would like to thank all that helped us these past years in our quest to be the best. As Always, Good Fishing Jay Engstrom www.GetEskimo.com To continue our effort to deliver a quality customer service experience, we are introducing a new and improved website. Manuals, parts ordering and detailed product information allow you to gather the information you need to make a well informed buying decision. What’s even better is you can visit whenever you want 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. W HAT’S NEW FO R 200 9 ESKAPE HARD WATER SERIES For 2009, Eskimo introduces the highest performing ice shelters ever. Features such as QRS - Quick Release System pinch-free pole technology, head the list of high performance updates, exclusive to Eskimo Eskapes. This patent pending feature coupled with an advanced telescoping pole design prevents binding during setup and take-down. The new adjustable Skylight allows more light in than ever before. The gray interior is non-light absorbing so natural light is magnified, even at night! Or, close the skylight for complete darkness - enhances your view down the hole. Eskape RED HD fabric delivers Rugged, Extreme Durability to muscle the wrath of Mother Nature. See more unprecedented Eskape Hard Water Series features on pages 8-11. REDNECK CHISELS Two Chisels in One The new improved Dual Headed Redneck Bucket Chisel delivers the same advanced chiseling technology as the rest of Eskimo’s Redneck Chisels, but you get two tools in one. On one end is a regular chisel head that works great for early ice or reopening frozen holes. The other end is a chisel/hammer head combo to use a hammer motion to break free frozen-in tip-ups or fast chiseling in general. It’s small enough to fit in a bucket for easy transport. Check out the entire family of Redneck Chisels by Eskimo on page 6. Truly High Performance Hard Water Engines Eskimo’s proven high performance Viper Engine continues to lead the market in consistent power and dependable starting. Technically advanced engineering has successfully balanced the speed, power and performance of the Viper Engine. Exhaustive testing and attention to detail, ensures every Viper Engine delivers high performance to the ice at a level never seen before. Simply pull, start and drill and let the ice chips fly! Dump The Bucket (Seat) Freedom of movement is yours with our 40/20/40 bench style seating. You can slide from one seat to another without the restrictions of bucket style seats. The extra thick seats and backrest fold up and down for easy access to gear storage. Air Exchange Under Your Control Side ventilation openings have interior Velcro flaps to control air flow and the exchange of air from outside. Extra long skirt prevents air drafts under shelter. Enjoy The View Clear view windows on all sides for crystal clear visibility. Windows have Velcro flaps for easy interior darkening. QRS-Quick Release System Pinch Free Pole Technology patent pending The new QRS pole technology provides quick snap button release. It’s fast, convenient, pinch-free, and you can even activate it with your gloves on. Advanced telescoping poles slide freely, eliminating metal to metal contact within poles during setup and take down, which delivers unmatched high performance on the heavy duty, lightweight aluminum frame work. Skylight The New Eskape shelters provide the convenience of a skylight. Light from above, whether it is sun or moon, can filter into the shelter and illuminate the entire shelter. Adjustability allows easy transition from light to dark. A darkened shelter adds extra excitement allowing you to view down your fishing hole with ease. Air Eskape The Eskape series has room to breathe, literally. Strategically placed vents allow air to flow in and out of the shelter thus reducing condensation within the shelter while maintaining a comfortable temperature inside. Extreme Portability The Quantum Blade design continues to lead the industry in cutting speed, cutting control, cutting smoothness and long lasting high performance. Simply put, the most reliable blade design on the market year after year. The Eskimo Quickfish ice shelters are number one in portability. Their lightweight design and compact travel size allow the shelter to easily slip into the included backpack. Anglers who want quick reaction to fishing hot spots can up and go within seconds. Fabric HD Fabric High Performance Blades Rugged, Extreme, Durable...That’s what makes Eskimo ice shelter fabric stand up to the worst conditions that Mother Nature throws at you. With an innovative gray interior and multiple windows, natural light is magnified inside your shelter, not absorbed into darkened walls. The Heavy Duty version of RED fabric has all the same great features but boasts a Heavy Duty weaved design for even more long lasting durability to stand up to even the coldest conditions and elements. RED HD is offered on the Eskape Hard Water Series for high performance. 1 Eskimo Brochure 2009 POWER IC E AU G ER S Eskimo’s Shark Z71 has the power and speed to fly through thick layers of late season ice, even when using a 10” auger! • ~Ron Anlauf, Pro Fisherman • HIGH PERFORMANCE ICE ICE FISHING GEAR HIGH PERFORMANCE FISHING GEAR • “Ice Ripping Power” • • SHARK Z71 With a 71cc Viper engine, diagnostic tests prove the Shark overpowers the competition in power output.

The point keeps the auger in one location and lets you drill where you want to drill, not where the auger wants to drill. Competitor augers tend to “wander” around the ice surface searching for a place to drill. The centering ring regulates how much ice the Quantum Blades cut per revolution. This is key when you are breaking through from hard water to soft water, the auger won’t jerk or become stuck because it continuously cuts the optimum amount of ice. Competitor augers have poor breakthrough ability and often leave you leery of the dreaded breakthrough with their auger. Angle and Edge- No other blade in the industry combines the perfect angle of attack and still keep a razor sharp edge. The Quantum Blade’s angle of attack to the ice surface hasn’t changed much over the years, but there’s a reason for that...IT WORKS! Our angle provides the best cutting performance hole after hole after hole and stays razor sharp. It won’t dull after drilling just a few holes. Auger Diameter 8” 9” 10” Warranty 1 Year Limited 1 Year Limited 1 Year Limited Centering Point: 90129 Extended Life- Quantum Blades are not only designed for extended life, but they are manufactured for extended life. By using the highest quality stainless steel material, they resist rust and corrosion for a longer life. The blades are also heat treated to a perfect hardness that resist wearing of the razor sharp edges and helps protect against dings and scratches that can lead to poor performance.

It set up quickly and we had room to fish comfortably and still had enough room for our heater. I used the Shark Z71 with a 10” Quantum Auger to punch the holes and when I fired it up, I think every person on the lake was looking to see what I was using for an auger because it just blasted through the ice in seconds. The combination of these two products gave us more time to enjoy our crappie fishing trip. The Eskimo Eskape is my idea of the ultimate dream house and provides plenty of warmth and comfort. From the cushy bench seats to the super smart skylight to the new QRS Pinch Free Pole Technology that makes set-up and take-down a snap, the Eskape has it all and is everything I need in a portable shelter! For optimum power, speed and weight, the Shark Z51 from Eskimo gives you all that and more. I also have a Quickflip 2. It’s quick and easy to set up, comfortable and lightweight. I can easily tow it out on the lake by myself. I don’t need another person with me to get my shelter set up. ~Scott Nickell, Eskimo Customer ~Ron Anlauf, Pro Fisherman ~Dan Sours, Eskimo Customer 18 For more products and accessories go to GetEskimo.com or call 800-345-6007 Eskimo Brochure 2009 All weights, specifications and features are approximate and are subject to change YUKON TRACKS HATS-HARD WATER HEAD GEAR TRACKS ENGINEERED OUTDOOR GEAR Grey L HG603 Black Grey XL HG621 Navy Blue Grey M HG622 Navy Blue Grey L HG623 Navy Blue Grey XL HG631 Tan Brown M HG632 Tan Brown L HG633 Tan Brown XL HG641 Olive Brown M Brown L Olive HG643 Olive Brown XL HG661 Red Grey M Poly-Cotton Black Rabbit Fur Grey HG602 Visor Alaskan Hat This Alaskan style hat with chin and ear flaps lined with rabbit fur and a standard visor make this a great outdoor work hat SHELL MODEL Fur Trooper Hats These rabbit fur hats feature soft, quilted lining for added warmth in extreme conditions.
