true, my friend has two old clam fish traps sled ice shelters and he is glad that i got the pop up portable eskimo ice shelter quickfish 2 because the clam fish traps are are clumsy and they let the snow get into the sled when you leave it to go talk to another ice fisherman.

ya, the old clam fish trap ice houses does not have a door on the ice fishing sled shelter.the new ones that are out i see they have a door. i prefer PORTABLE POP-UP ICE SHELTER because A backpack holds the shelter for easy transport. one question do you all ready have a ice fishing sled?

NO NO robert you got to start a new thread for us all to enjoy grin

Stcloudangler, 150 is a steal if it's in decent shape. I have a otter one man I use about a third of the time and have no complaints. One thing to look for is make sure the poles slide smooth without binding.

The Team Wild houses are awesome, I have had one for two years and it is just like the day I bought it. They aren't as heavy as other houses on the market either. If you are around 5'10" you can stand up in them and stretch as well.

they have ice anchors for the hub style ice shelters.

Being I don't have experience with this, my question is how well do these go into the ice? Does it take a while?

I like the hub style house idea, the weight and mobility seems really key... but I don't want to spend all my time screwing down ice anchors if I move every now and then.

I think your all getting into a car vs truck type battle. Really each house has it's pro's and con's. Me personally I have a Team Wild 2 man I bought 2 years ago. I paid $300 new on sale for the 2 man, I'd say $150 is a good price. Love the house and the sled that holds everything, started pulling it a couple times with snowmobile to some remote lakes and worked great. Only downside is that have to have the house flipped open to get the bench to go up to get the stuff out, minor inconvenience and not sure if this is the same on the 1 man.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
