Sven's Sleeve Black Wheelhouse Ice Hole Sleeve & Clear Cover
Sven's Sleeve
Upgrade the fishing holes in your wheelhouse with a cleaner, more functional setup. The Sven’s Sleeve Black Wheelhouse Ice Hole Sleeve & Clear Cover combines a durable black high-density plastic sleeve with a clear Lexan cover that recesses into the sleeve for a true-flush fit.
Designed specifically for wheelhouses and permanent ice fishing houses, Sven’s Sleeve helps protect open fishing holes while keeping your fishing line and electronics organized. The cover is supported along the sides and bottom, includes a dedicated fishing-line slot and multiple electronics access points, and fits both Catch Cover and Fish Hole Buddy floor-ring systems when properly configured.
Package includes: 1 Black Sven’s Sleeve and 1 Clear Cover. Fish Hole Buddy accessory clips are required for Fish Hole Buddy floor rings and are sold separately.
*Fish Hole Buddy floor rings require Sven’s Sleeve accessory clips. One four-clip set is recommended for each sleeve.
Choose the Black version when you want the full Sven’s Sleeve wheelhouse system in a simple, traditional finish. You get the same true-flush clear cover, durable sleeve construction, universal floor-ring compatibility, and electronics-friendly design without the glow-in-the-dark material used in the Glow model.
The black sleeve provides a straightforward appearance that works well with virtually any wheelhouse interior while keeping the focus on the fishing hole and clear cover.
Choosing Black instead of Glow does not mean giving up the system’s primary benefits. The Black model still uses the same wheelhouse sleeve-and-clear-cover design built around flush fit, support, compatibility, and electronics access.
The clear cover recesses into the Sven’s Sleeve so the top sits flush rather than creating a raised cover above the sleeve. That gives your wheelhouse floor a cleaner, more finished setup and helps reduce raised edges around the fishing hole.
The sleeve supports the clear cover along the sides and underneath. Sven’s designed this fully supported fit to help keep the cover securely positioned in the sleeve.
A dedicated fishing-line slot and multiple electronics access points let you route sonar, underwater-camera, and other fishing-electronics cables separately from your line to help reduce unnecessary tangles.
The clear cover is made from Lexan and engineered for minimal flex. According to Sven’s Sleeve, its wheelhouse cover has been tested to approximately 700+ pounds without breaking or slipping out of the sleeve.
The high-density plastic sleeve and Lexan cover are injection molded, helping create smooth surfaces without sharp edges around the fishing area that could rub against or weaken your fishing line.
The wheelhouse sleeve comes 9 inches tall and can be trimmed to the appropriate height for your wheelhouse. This gives you flexibility to match different frame heights, floor thicknesses, and blocking setups.
Sven’s Sleeve designed its wheelhouse model to work with the two major permanent floor-ring systems commonly found in fish houses. Knowing which system is installed in your wheelhouse tells you whether accessory clips are required.
A permanent hole cover with a large D-shaped handle generally indicates a Catch Cover floor ring. Sven’s Sleeve is designed to fit this system without the Fish Hole Buddy accessory clips.
A T-shaped handle typically indicates a Fish Hole Buddy floor ring. Sven’s notes that Fish Hole Buddy floor rings are commonly found in Ice Castle wheelhouses.
Order one set of four Sven’s Sleeve Fish Hole Buddy accessory clips for each sleeve.
- 1 Black Sven’s Sleeve Wheelhouse Sleeve
- 1 Clear Lexan Cover
- Dedicated fishing-line slot
- Multiple electronics access points
- Fish Hole Buddy accessory clips
- One set of 4 clips is recommended for each sleeve installed in a Fish Hole Buddy floor ring
Sven’s Sleeve supplies its wheelhouse sleeve at a standard 9-inch height because wheelhouse frame heights, flooring thicknesses, snow conditions, and blocking setups can vary.
Sven’s recommends setting your wheelhouse on a flat surface and measuring from the ground to the top of the floor-ring lip before cutting. Measure carefully before trimming because material removed from the sleeve cannot be added back.
Sven’s Sleeve states that its sleeves are manufactured in Maple Grove, Minnesota, making this a locally manufactured ice-fishing accessory designed around the needs of wheelhouse anglers.
Sven’s Sleeve offers a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials or workmanship on products that have not been modified from their original design. Replacement for damage during normal use and proper installation is handled at the manufacturer’s discretion. Damage from unintended use is excluded.
Your fishing holes sit in the middle of where you walk, jig, run electronics, move equipment, and spend time with family and friends. Sven’s Sleeve brings together a flush clear cover, supported fit, cut-to-fit sleeve, electronics access, and broad wheelhouse compatibility in one purpose-built system. It is a simple upgrade that can make your Ice Castle or other wheelhouse feel cleaner and more functional every time you hit the ice.
Get a true-flush clear ice-hole cover, durable black sleeve, Catch Cover and Fish Hole Buddy compatibility, and dedicated access for your fishing line and electronics in one wheelhouse-ready system.
