ceiling height in spear house

[GoneFish'n71]

I was thinking about building a lightweight darkhouse that i could slide in/out of my big house. Problem is the door is only 5'6" H x 4'5", and not sure if that is enough headroom to spear out of.

Usually you can make anything work to go spearing, but when I made one only six feet ,I didn't like it. I would hit the end of the spears on the ceiling, so I shortened two spears. This made the spears lighter so they wouldn't hold the bigger northerns to the bottom.

Is it possible to lay the house on its side and push it in? I see alot of guys that put skies on thwe side of ther ehouses and tip them over to transport across the ice. A small spear shack doesnt have to be filled with every gadget you got. just a hole and your ready to go

I could slide it in sidways, but then I can only have about a 4.5x5.5 floor, not sure if that would be large enough to be comfortable.
