perchking Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I just purchased a little wheel house, it is a 6x10 that will be used as a day house at my cottage for the most part. I have only ever owned portables, so this is a new venture for me. I picked it up last night, it trailered fairly well on the 3hr drive back home. It is setup with 5 catch covers and 4 rattle reels. I will however be changing out the furnace/blower to a conventional wall mount LP unit. Not sure I am crazy about the bucket seat setup, but when I move the heater I may replace them with bench seating. My cottage is in N Wisc so we can get a fair amount of snow, the homemade skis will come in handy when we get major snowfall. Anything that comes to mind that is a must have or beware of? I bought it from MI, but I guess the seller bought it from Minn about 4 years ago and has now lost interest in ice fishing. Heck one of you guys may have owned this shack...

BartmanMN Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 That looks like a nice functional house. Personally those buckets seats look really comfy for fishing to me. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydrostreamin Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I think with the distance between the buckets and the fish hole, you may actually be very comfortable there. Nothing is worse than a fold out chair you sink into with the fish hole by your feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye43 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Will that gator pull that when the snow gets deep??? I am thinking about heading that way after the first of the year, you around?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perchking Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Ken this will be kept at my cottage I bought last fall, thankfully it is about 20 miles south of the snowbelt so it shouldn't be an issue also if you look closely the guy made a set of skis which apparently work pretty good. This will most likely not see gogebic ice, but you never know. I may be around, either PM me or text me I will make some time to fish...
