Fish House Gallery

[Kylersk]

Thanks for the compliments.

I worked on it basically all summer on and off. I'm still not quite done, have some trim work to finish, but I'm tired of doing that type of work so I'll finish it next year

I think my last total was just over $3200 or $3500?

where did you get the frame? Was constructing around the wheel wells tough?

[Kylersk]

A friend (ex-certified welder but doesnt do that for a living anymore) said he'd weld the frame up, but I had to design it. So, I basically copied some of the frames that are out on the market and went with advice from co-workers.

Not sure I understand the question about wheel wells, my house doesnt have any.

Here's my shack. Spent a lot of time this summer customizing it just the way I wanted it.

Looking forward to getting it out.. c'mon ICE!!!

Ah, you mean this?

That's where my Pin and Spring meet. I couldnt side that spot because the pin was too long. So, I put some left over rubber roof material there and sided around it. I think that's about a 6" x 12" area.

You can see the pin and spring area in this picture prior to house construction.

Yep. That's what I was wondering. Thanks for the info. Now, if I can only talk the wifey into letting me get one or build one.

[spotter]

[Coach1310]

you can get them on HSOList.

[spotter]

coach. its 8x18 with a 3foot vfront,good ? about how much it weighs, i have no idea but it not very light, pulled it out last year with 15 inches of ice with a fullsize f-150, i was almost crapping my pants, never owned a house before and have too much money and time into it, i would cry if it fell in!!!

[insurance guy]

I'm speechless. You guys out in MN have some of the most amazing fishing houses ever. Out here in NY it's a choice of old square shack or old sqare shack or portables and the surface temps at my walleye lakes are still 50 degrees as of yesterday.

I have been showing some of the guys I work with (in Florida) the houses in this gallery, and they cannot believe how nice all of your guys' houses are. They still can't get over the fact that we pull out these with a vehicle and then leave them sit out on the ice. They were literally shaking their heads in amazement when I told them that you fish through an 8" hole in the ice. I wish I could take a bunch of those guys up ice fishing for a weeked, I know they would absolutely love it if I could get them to step foot out onto the ice.

Kylersk, Would you mind me asking where you got the cushions and materials for your booth. I have a 7ft by 16ft that I built a couple of years ago and would like to install something like that, and while I'm asking could you tell me how tall is the seats of your booth?

Thanks, Icehole10

[Kylersk]

I bought the cusions, table wall bracket and table leg from ProFish Enterprises. The Table and Benche tops I made from oak plywood and trimmed the sides with oak screen molding. Used 2x4's to make the box and paneling for the sides.

[Coach1310]

Spotter- I really like your setup. The rope lights are a nice touch too!!! Where are you gonna put this bad boy this winter? Are you going to leave it somewhere or move it each time you go? My Dad and I are looking into buying a frame a building a house and I love your house, but I like the idea of not having to wait for 15" of ice to use it!!!

[icehole10]

One more question does profish enterprises have a HSOforum? Thanks for the info! Now if we could just get some ice on the lakes!!

coach,thanks for the compliment, i keep on mille lacs all winter, buying a frame is a good idea, i buillt mine and it added alot of time and effort. I might actually put this one up for sale, I thought i would venture out to different lakes more but don't, I would like to build one on skids,10x20 and camp out of it in the summer on mille lacs. dont blame you for not wanting to wait for 15" of ice, it kills me.

lazydays? I suppose you don't need another fishing buddy (great looking house)

I'm trying to decide which picture i like better 1) the framed ice fishing print or 2) the one just right of the T.V. in the middle picture

[SportFishin']

Here is our 8x12 with crank down wheels. We went with a little different shape to keep the neighbors happy So in the summer it looks like we have two sheds.

Do you like how somebody came & drilled a hole right next to the door while we were gone!

This is it sitting on Tonka.

Later,

Chris

I was panning through these post showing my wife the houses, and she made the comment "must be a picture of his wife on the wall" I said "He wouldn't be ice fishing that much, to have a house like that if it was"

[The Yeti]

LazyDayz or anyone.. Who is the manufacturer of "The Grand Lodge". I tried looking it up, could not find a HSOforum..
