What portable fish house do you have?

I have a Frabill Magnum GT, and I absolutely love it. It has two storage lockers in the bottom, built in rod holders, and fishes three guys. The seats are free standing so there is no bar runing through the middle of the sled. I recomend it for any one thinking about making their first purchase, or as an ugrade.

Otter Lodge - Primary shack, added refletix on the roof and otter swivel seats this past winter ... VERY cozy even at -16 degrees outside.

Also have FT Pro and Eskimo Quickfish 6 when I need romm for 3-6 people in one shack.

I have a Fish trap Yukon, that I might or might not use next year, as for now I like to get my fix and sit in it during the summer time and drink beer. smile

This fall I am getting a Canvas Craft Med with NorPacR2. I saw one last winter and was very impressed...

I've got an old clam that I still use!!! Get's the job done, but this year I really need to invest in a decent flip over. I hear the Canvas Crafts are great! It'll be either one of them or an Otter.

Was this picked up in N Fargo today? Saw one at a garage sale that the lady wanted to get rid of for almost nothing.

Yup,that's probably the one!

All I've got is a one man Frabill flip-over. For me it's great, but when I try to get the girlfriend out, it's not so great.

I'm trying to convince her we need a Clam pop-up, but I'm not sure it's going to make the budget cuts.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
