18 inch Crappie Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Any one check out the Otter Ice house Packages at FF? They have a med size with bench seat and velcro windows for $349 but can not find them on any web site? They are black with orange top. That same house the green Cabin is $599 with a bench seat from the Otter site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott827 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I am looking at those also.I think this is thier HSOforum. http://www.wild-outdoors.com/Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northlander Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 The Wild series is a real nice house for the price. Bench seat gives you good seating room as well as a place to set your unused gear when fishing. Same Otter quality we all love at a nice price.I think I will be running the 1 man wild series house for early ice this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palisade1kid Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Good option for a single fisher!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuskieJunkie Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I think those have a cheaper thinner fabric than the real otters don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18 inch Crappie Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 I am looking at those also.I think this is thier HSOforum. http://www.wild-outdoors.com/Scott Thanks that was what I was looking for, they are not on Otters web site. Thats why I asked. Thought they were custom made for FF because of the orange color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleasant Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 yep the wild houses use a 600 denier while the true otter houses use a 900 denier, but I think for the price and the fact that they are 12 pounds lighter they would be great for hole hopping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifty Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I have one of the two man and just got it set up today seems like a nice house.Sifty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Drummer Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I bought one of these at gander last spring for a really cheap price. I paid under 250.00!! after taxes! The only problem is that the tub is too small for the brackets for the seat!1 they claimed that is was not opened and was the right parts but it was not! I just did some mods of my own and waaalllaaa. Its even better now!Ha! they are nice and light for one person to lift into a truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpaulson Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I saw the 2 man in the ad at Fleet Farm at a pretty good price. Anybody know what the 1 man sells for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Drummer Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 i have the smaller 2 man (slightly skinnier) could pass for a 1 man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaze Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Do they come with the same Otter sled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northlander Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Im pretty sure the Wild sleds are a bit more lifted on the front sides but are a very heavy duty sled and are very durable. Like I tel everyone. Put Hyfax on your sled and you wont have any worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCLaker Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I think you are correct Northlander. I sat on the seat on the front side of the Wild sled that was on display. The whole thing tipped forward ... that doesn't happen with my otter lodge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shack Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Quote: The whole thing tipped forward ... that doesn't happen with my otter lodge. If you have a bench seat and sit on the very end of any empty sled that has curved up front, it will tip. Unless the sled is big enough to displace your body weigh. Most med. sized shacks are not that big. The Team Wild sled is very nice. It does have a raised front and a nice cut out on the side for fishing. I got one of the Team Wild 3 this year and it is a very nice setup for the price. Looks cool also If you look at otters website, you can find a link for Team Wild right at the bottom of the home page. http://www.otteroutdoors.com/ or go right to their website: http://www.wild-outdoors.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prybry Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I have one of the two man and just got it set up today seems like a nice house.Sifty I'm looking at one of these as well, Can you tell me how tall it is when collapsed? I only have 20.5" clearance under my bed cover on my pickup, will it fit? They claim 16" in the info. but I find that hard to believe with a bench (even folded)...
