nikntoby Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Well its time for a new ice house and im looking at Eskimo fatfish and the clam full thermal pop up. A buddy of mine has the clam and i like the full thermal cause you dont get all the condensation. And now im looking at the eskimo fatfish insulated and have never been in one fishing, do those get condensation on the walls at all. Also any pros and cons between the two any input is greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSK76 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I would go inside each and pay attention to how bright each interior is. I really like the the Eskimo but the black interior is a huge turnoff to me compared to the blue or grey interior of the clam. If your going to spear out of it, sight fish or fish in the daylight hours only then I would take the fatfish, a lot of night fishing Clam would be my choice.

danj22 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I haven't fished in a clam thermal but i've been very happy with my fat fish. Usually any condensation build up has shown up closer to the bottom of the house. Not the usual rain effect from the ceiling on other houses. You'd definitely want a fan to keep the warm air moving around the house. With the large windows it can be very bright to fish during the day and also very dark when all closed up, which would be great for spearing. Fishing later in the day it would be a bit dark in the house, but with a string of firebrite leds. It'd be almost like day light in there.
