Clam legend xl thermal

well I bought a frabill cammando and returned it for various reasons and bought a Clam legend xl thermal. Main reason was it was one of the few with a removable seat. why do they not make them that way. cant get them under a tonneau cover I measured and measured houses they were always 2-3 inches higher any way I love the sliding seat the pop up poles are ok and when i put it together I had it so the bottom pole touched the ground now it seems higher? I think its the tent needs to stretch. I love the light pole not much of a night guy but wow does this open up avenues. I couldn't believe how bright it was AAA+++ on this one clam. all in all happy with it so far not to complain I've had a few clams that didn't last long hope this one does plus a 3 year warranty that was nice. any one else have one how do you like it?

Yup, taking the seat out makes it lower and if removed, much lighter. When I fished tournaments, I left it out and sat on a bucket seat in or out of the trap, making more room for sorting containers. One thing that helps is to set the Velcro pole loops oversized and have someone sit on the seat while you push down on the porch pole to stretch the fabric over the frame.

like Jim said do not tighten down the velcro staps. I made that mistake at first when I put my legend together last year. loosened them and that gained me some on the porch pole. also found that it helped to leave the house set up for a few days and the fabric seem to stretch a little on its own. The Legend is my go to one man house when I can drive the truck out until then I like to use my Full Thermal Big Mouth. another nice early ice house is the new full thermal Scout XL.

Just got my legend built, this is my 4th house. I have the commando, tracker, X2 thermal and now the legend thermal.

Great house Clam has made it super easy to build them. Unless I'm some sort of moron I ended up with almost 1 extra screw in each packet. If you have never built a house you will know there is always something missing or not explained well so you end up taking it apart and putting together the whole time. Not with this unit they have it all figured out. Comes with a nice battery tray and light bar. Much nicer than the tube lights i put in my X2.

IMO Clam has the best traps for the money and compared to the "F" brand are in a different business all together. Keep up the good work.
