Looking into a shanty

[chumthrower]

I have a Frabill one man flip I pull behind my quad.. Very satisfied. Does the job.

Ive owned 3 Clam Scouts. First one back in the mid 90's, the sled wore a hole thru. Second one was great, but upgraded to the Scout with the black interior and zipper front door. I added runners to it, and have been using it problem free for the last 10 years.

This year, I purchased an Eskimo Quickfish 3. Hub style. This was because the girlfriend was interested. I found it at Glenn's Army/Navy online. $149 with free shipping. Ive used it 3 times on Erie. Once in 30 MPH winds. She held up nicely. Hope this helps

Thanks guys but I think I will just hold off this season. Nobody around toledo has any ice fishin gear left in stock. I am gonna save up some dough and get one I really want rather than settle for one. Its too late to get one shipped by sunday. Ill just brave what mother natures got to give. I have a clam high back chair. Its supposed to be 29 or 30 on sunday. Plus, I have a little natural insulation if you know what I mean.

This place has a ton of stuff for ice fishing. Got an auger cover from them on line. Vary fast service. They have pretty much any shanty you might want to look at.

Forgot to mention. Regardless of what you decide to get buy get the runner kit to protect your investment. Worth every penny. The ice will destroy the bottom of your shelter. Made that mistake once.

I bought an Otter 650 Lodge (comfortable 3 man). Very good product, excellent sled, double layer fabric. I got mine end of season from Reeds for a great deal. If your always going with 1-2 other guys, don't go large like I did. Didn't take in to consideration all the gear weight. It's fine behind a sled but pulling by hand in snow or slush is a bear. Runner kit is a must!

I can understand that. I have a snowmobile but no trailer right now. I live close to the ottawa river so I go ridin right from my driveway. I just would likevto have all the neccessities by next winter to be self sufficient to get out to the big water. I don't trust crossin the shipping channel. I can see already I will be keeping a close eye on reedssports for my shanty.2 man would probly be along the lines what I get. I do appreciate the input, guys.
