Does any company make a wheel house that is meant to travel down the highway for lots of long trips. I just seen another guy at red lake who pulled his Ice Castle up and he said about five miles up the road the wheel started to bow and break away from the frame. I have looked at a few of these fishhouse and have yet to see one with an axel that goes all the way through. I know lots of people have had no problems. But it doesn't take a genius to see it could easily be a problem with the way the tires are mounted to the fishhouse. If you were just going to take it to the local lakes and move it around a couple times a year it would probably last forever. I'm talking someone who would be pulling it off everytime and taking it home. I need something that can take the pounding of todays highway. I also don't want to have to take the tires off once I'm on the lake.
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.
