TyGuy02 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 What kind of sled do you use to pull this bad boy? I just got mine and it is a touch bigger than I was thinking all packed up. Not a major problem for me, i was just wondering what you use to pull it with. I fish almost exclusively from a pickup, so I don't need to pull a sled across a lake. But I have an old sled from a flipover that needed TLC because of holes, and I use it to hold gear for the most part. If the bigfoot doesn't fit into the sled, I'll just (1) ditch the bag (2) straps to keep the unit from opening up (3) strap to outside of sled/cover. The few times I've set it up so far I've noticed that the hardest part of setting up and taking down is messing with that bag! If I don't need to use it as a backpack it won't be used at all, other than summer storage. And for clarification on why the bag stinks is that the bag is large enough to fit the hub shelter, but it doesn't get loaded like a normal "gunny-sack" type bag, but more like fit the bottom into the bottom of the bag and zip-to-fit if that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 im thinking that i will pick up a big buddy heater so that way it fits perfect in my sled. i have other heaters that i use for spearing houses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyedr Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I have to agree, the bag design is not the best, it should be easier with 2 people but we will see. it will be interesting to see how it does in the wind. I picked this up as my primary house because I have 3 small nephews that love to fish and needed something bigger than the quick fish. What are your thoughts on setting it up and using on a windy day/night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Rick Posted November 11, 2012 we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Share Posted November 11, 2012 They're nice units. Be sure to get the Ice Drill set-up for your ice anchors. This clip will show you how the ice anchors are set-up: "> " type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
