Clam License/ Identifcation Holder

[Bigdaddy18]

For anyone that has a clam fish house and has the license holder (the blue thing), I was wondering how you attached it to your house? Any special ways that you did it? Thanks for the help.

I use safety pins. You could also use magnets if you get strong ones. Just a couple ideas.

I have FISH TRAPS and all I did was screwed it to the tub. Then I laminate the shelter tags and punch a hole in it. Then I am able to attach it to one of the screws.

I used the provided mounting hardware, I used a scroll to poke a hole in the shelter where I wanted it displayed.

Works great.

I used the little rivets also, just like PierBridge. Put in on the back, right under the rear window

The factory states to attach on the door. Use small screws and nuts with washer to secure it to the front. Thats how I attached mine to the clam pro. Placed dnr # on heavy tag board and placed shelter license along side that.

Both are listed on the top of door in plane view.

I have a voyageur and attached mine to the front door below the window with stainless steel bolts and washers. I use a piece of heavy cardboard with my dnr# and attach the license to the zipper pull.

For those of you who have attached to the canvas, your canvas has not ripped at all or started to frey??? Have not attached mine yet, just don't want the canvas to rip or tear. Thanks to you that have replied and helped out.

I laminate the shelter tag and then use a tie strap and attach it to the door zipper.My D.L. I put accross the top of the door with permanent marker.Marker has faded some in three years,so I just trace over.

No fraying at all the hole is so small you can barely see it even without the rivets in it.

Yo, Harvey Lee..... I thought about the marker thing too. HOWEVER, I just renewed my drivers license and the number changed. Its probably something you already know, but I assume you have the old number if you did it 3 years ago. Maybe its good that it faded, so now you can put it elsewhere when your number changes. I dont know why our state does such weird things....

Anyway, I have a voyager as well, and got the little black clips with the Reg. holder. I ALSO put it under the window on the front door. I wish I would have put it on back so I didnt have to see it get all crinkled up when I fold up my tent... I know it would get crinkled in the back, but I wouldnt see it... Out of site, out of mind.

I called the DNR the other day and found out that your MN DNR number is never suppose to change. So putting that in the holder sounded like the best idea...

I used my propane torch to heat up a nail and pushed the nail through the canvas to creat my hole for the grommet. I think that should melt the edges enough to ensure it doesn't fray. As others have said though, they don't seem to have a problem with it even without doing it this way. But that's how I did it and it works just fine.

Clam has a patented weave that is almost impossible to tear and fray. You can actually take a piece of fabric and slice a hole in it and you cannot tear it with your hands or even get it to budge. They don't call it ice armor for nothing!

[Bigdaddy18]

Great info guys, thanks for all the help.

[metrojoe]

I heated the end of a nail also. It melts the edges of the hole to help prevent any fraying or tearing. Mine sags a bit in the center, which is no big deal, but it could use a rivet in the center also.

[Perchpapa]

I put my license holder on the back of my fish trap with the provided mounting hardware, I have had no problems.

The reason I didn't put is on the door was (what if I have the door rolled up) then my licence would be hidden.

[dockehr]

For those individuals with more than one portable here's my solution: Lay out your DNR# or Driver's License# along with your Portable Shelter tag on a piece of cardboard cut to fit within a Zip Lok type of bag. Buy one of those spring-loaded plastic clamps sold in hardware or big box home improvement stores. Use that to attach the the bag-protected license anywhere that works best on your portable. When you're ready to leave, just unclamp and place within the sled/tub for your next outing.

I was at gander mountain and when buying my shack license they had the blaze orange Wisconsin tag holders that hunters have to have on there backs, I baught one of those and stuff my shack license in there. It comes with a huge safety pin which I put through the vent mesh, that way no wholes. I made a quick info sheet and laminated which I put in the window with the window up. I have the 5600 and it doesn't have a spot to put identifications.

[Skitterpop]

dockehr- I do basicly the same thing. I have my bag strung up with a velcro strip to wrap it through the zipper on my door with the license stuck to a chunk of cardboard. Works great!
