I don’t like any of you people. Man, I really miss the ice fishing in NW Montana. Lakers, pike, trout, and perch. Good luck to you short pole fisherman!

I'd like to tell you that is an over the top purchase. However, if I were to add up the costs of my tungsten jigs, it is probably as high as that sled
It is over the top. We wanted something a little smaller but there was limited supply like everything these days and this was one of the few available. Thinking about getting a big screen TV for it… if the weather is foul it’ll be fun to hunker down in. We had one of those nasty days on Cascade last year and it was kinda fun sitting in a blizzard in a tent, listening to good music and catching giant perch.

Oh and to be clear, I am stoked for you either way. Being out of the wind is worth every penny. I'm happy for ya!

Anybody catching any of these trout? Skip to 13:40 and 31:30 if you don't want to see small fish.

That’s crazy!

Thank you! Where was some of your favorite lakes in Montana? Nobody ever really talks much about that area, I’m curious.

It’s all good, I hope for everyone to have a good time however a guy gets setup big or small. However, a folding chair on the ice is crossed off my list  :peep:

I just want to apologize to everyone.  I bought a bunch of ice fishing gear and as soon as I did the forecast went from single digits to the 40s.  :sry:

I'm not sure how to do this. I'm in possession of a clam 360 hut. I have been storing it for a forum member. It is larger than I need.  I will not set a price. But you can contact him.
Then you can work out the details. It doesn't have any rips or tears.  Shows no signs of mold or mildew.

@Skillet is your guy. It's located in South Canada at present.

Well if it is then I am waiting.

If someone from the Westside is interested perhaps you could work on a vehicle transfer
I send you some pictures or post pics of it
