Eagle Claw Telescopic Ice Skimmer 32"

Clear slush, maintain open water, and eliminate painful back strain on the ice with the Eagle Claw Telescopic Ice Skimmer (Part # ICSAT32). Purpose-built for serious hardwater anglers, this heavy-duty ice scoop extends up to 32 inches, allowing you to quickly clear auger shavings and slush from fresh or re-frozen holes while standing completely upright. When the day is done or it is time to hole-hop, the telescoping shaft collapses down to an ultra-compact 18 inches, packing away effortlessly into gear bags, bucket organizers, or sled storage compartments.

Featuring a broad, high-volume 5.75-inch ladle basket, the scoop removes maximum slush with minimal passes while allowing excess water to drain smoothly back into the hole. The rugged aluminum shaft withstands demanding sub-zero conditions without bending, while the durable polymer basket sheds freezing slush and resists ice buildup—making it a dependable staple in your winter tackle setup.

• Compact Packability: Retracts down to just 18 inches for tangle-free, low-profile storage inside gear sleds, rod lockers, or utility buckets.

• High-Capacity Ladle: The generous 5.75-inch scoop basket clears dense shavings in fewer scoops, keeping your ice holes clean and clear for your sonar transducers and lines.

• Corrosion-Resistant Aluminum Shaft: Lightweight, rigid metal handle delivers strength and durability in sub-freezing temperatures without adding unnecessary weight to your loadout.

• Freeze-Resistant Polymer Scoop: Durable basket construction sheds ice easily with a light tap, preventing frozen blockages and slush buildup.

Technical Specifications

Pro Tip: When hole-hopping on bitter cold days, avoid banging the ladle directly against hard ice to clear ice buildup. Instead, plunge the basket deep into the warmer water beneath the ice hole for three to five seconds, then give it a quick flick. The relatively warm surface water immediately softens and releases the frozen slush crust without risking cracks or premature wear to your scoop.
