ClamLock accessories help optimize space in ice fishing shelters, making anglers more efficient and, as a result, able to catch more fish. ClamLock products are easy to use and the top choice for customizing hub shelters, FishTraps and hard-sided ice houses.

The ClamLock Accessory Base Plate serves as the system’s foundation. It installs easily to any hard surface and provides a stable base for attaching any ClamLock accessory.

For even greater versatility, the ClamLock Adjustable Clamp Adapter allows anglers to connect ClamLock accessories to FishTrap poles, other round tubes up to 1-3/4” in diameter and square tubes up to 1-1/2” in diameter.

Efficient: The ClamLock Base Plate’s slide-on groove makes attaching and removing accessories fast and easy.

Organized: ClamLock’s extensive products optimize in-shelter storage and tackle management.

Protective: ClamLock accessories make it easy to keep rod and reel combos, tools, and other gear off the ice and out of harm’s way.

Multi-Purpose: Being able to swap out accessories (e.g., removing a Double Cup Holder and attaching a Vertical 2-Rod Holder), lets anglers customize shelters based on needs and fishing style.

Universal: ClamLock Base Plates and ClamLock accessories work in any style of ice fishing shelter.

Ice-Centric: No other company knows ice fishing like Clam, and this is apparent with how ClamLock products are purpose-built for ice adventures.

The ClamLock collection is the most comprehensive and innovative ice fishing accessory line on the market. Below are some of the products available, followed by examples of how to use them to customize different ice fishing shelters.

ClamLock Base Plates integrate seamlessly within the framework of Clam hubs. Simply remove the shelter’s existing centre hub plate and bolt, and then install the ClamLock Base Plate.

The ClamLock 4-Rod Holder is great for keeping rod combos organized and within reach in hubs. It’s a must-have on multi-species adventures and when tactics require quick lure changes.

The ClamLock Shelf’s smart design has a drink holder, drop-in tool storage slots, and a magnetic strip for keeping jigs and lures in place.

The ClamLock LED Light improves visibility in hubs. Delivering 220 lumens of bright light, it runs on 3 AA batteries, so you don’t have to worry about cords or tripping hazards.

The ClamLock Roof Support Pole extends up to 100 inches and easily attaches to any hub-style shelter for additional roof support and stability. A good item to have in windy conditions.

Kit-out your flip-over ice shelter by mounting ClamLock Base Plates to key areas, like the side of the seat and along the tub. These are great places for attaching the ClamLock Single Rod Holder, ClamLock Shelf and ClamLock Double Cup Holder.

Installing the ClamLock FishTrap/Tube Adapter Adjustable Clamp to a FishTrap’s poles further enhances customization options. The ClamLock LED Light, ClamLock Power Centre and ClamLock Shelf are popular picks for pole-mounting.

Installing ClamLock Base Plates to inside walls helps optimize space within hard-sided ice houses. Base Plates, placed above ice hole openings, for instance, allow anglers to perfectly position rods soaking minnows with the ClamLock Vertical 2-Rod Holder. Or, clip-on the Double Cup Holder to ensure coffee, hot chocolate and other drinks always stay within easy reach.

The Electronics Head Unit Mount is another ClamLock favourite for many anglers. This durable and lightweight mount enables an ideal viewing position with a fishfinder’s display. Watch this short video to see the benefits of the Electronics Head Unit and the versatility of installing multiple Base Plates in an ice house.

Whether you fish from a hub shelter, FishTrap or a hard-sided ice house, the ClamLock system will become your new favourite tool for maximizing efficiency on the ice. Its simple installation makes it easier to store gear, fish and be more successful on the ice.
