I'd like to get some advice concerning my Otter Magnum Lodge. I just purchased it so it's the new fabric with the squarte tubing. I've used it a couple of times now and have noticed that the fabric sweats a lot to the point of dripping. I heat it with a sunflower. I've not been opening the vents on top, does that make a big difference? It seems like there's enough venting around the bottom. Anybody else have this issue or any advice on how to reduce this sweating effect? Appreciate your replies, Yukon Don
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
