Do they set up the same as a huntingblind. Some of them can be a puzzle to get back together the first few times. I usually fish in my cousins clam flip. It don't really seem like we have a square inch of extra space. Neither one of us are very tall so height isn't an issue. It seems like you may have more maneuverability in the hub style. But with that you also need to add chairs to your load, right?

I never really thought this much into it. I guess I got some homework to do. Hub style would be easier to store, I assume?

How are the stakes to drive in the ice? Tools? Thanks again, with all your replies I read, I am glad I didn't just go buy one without any thought about it.
