Hello VT IceShantians.

I will be representing HT Enterprises at the upcoming Winter Ice Fishing event at the Burlington (Williston) Dick's Sporting Goods from December 12th through the 14th.

I will have Samples, Demos, and other great goodies For HT Enterprises! Of Course, Dick's will also have tons of in-store specials as well.

I will also have a Demo of the 2015 SnoBear TL Package on display as well!

See You There!

Paul

Will you be bringing and setting up a POLAR FIRE XTREME TX 4-MAN hub shelter?  I'd really like to see one set up.  Also what are the open floor measurements and also the closed and packed measurements in the carry bag?   Thanks

[tafts ta]

I put in a request for you.  Doesn't look like this Dick's stocks it so I need to get permission to bring it.  I'll do my best for you

What are the open floor measurements and also the closed and packed measurements in the carry bag? The HT website has almost no information on it other than the name and a picture.  Not very good use of a good marketing tool.

Set up dimensions are 108"X108" with a fishable area 90"X87"  The Shelter is made of the Polar Fire Insulated TX material which is amazing, Last year I switched all my guides over to the Polar Fire Arctikon suits from Frabill suits and everyone loved them at least twice as much! The Hubs are reinforced and all of the poles are 11mm (almost 1/2inch) rods which is thicker than most on the market.

I do not have a dimension of the bag, but the weight is 38.5 pounds. I'll do my best to get one up there, even if I can't demo inside for you, maybe I can show you outside the building. Also as soon as I know the pack dimensions I'll let you know.

You could0 bring the 2/3 man shelter as an example to show instead of the big one that would be OK as it is built the same.  To be honest I'll probably have already bought a shelter by mid December but I would like to check out the Polar Fire hubs.

Do you know if something like this is going to happen at other stores and other states?

[tafts ta]

I know HT Pro Staffer Jeff Kelm did a show this past week in Minnetonka. At the moment my only scheduled appearances are going to be at the Williston Dick's and the Harriman Derby, However this is just the beginning f the season and more places will definitely be added.

I rarely get a chance to fish in ice tournaments anymore since I'm on the ice 5-6 days a week with he guide service. I usually pick a tournament or two and take a weekend off or so. I used to go to the Harriman derby but haven't been in years. This year I think ill head out to Winni for the Merideth Rotary derby.

I actually posted on here a while back about the Harriman hoping somebody might know when this years was scheduled for but no replies.

I heard they are offering a free jet sled with any Shappell shelter flip or pop up.  Buy two get one free on PK lures, Seaguar, western filament ice line and a free ice spud with the purchase of five heritage traps and so much more.

[pikeaddict]

I will swing by on Friday.  Buy two get one free on PKs sounds good to me.  Needing 1/8oz Spoons and Flutterfish.

WoodChuck...
I have just been cleared to not only display the New Polar Fire shelter, But I will have some to sell. I invite all to compare these shelters to any on display at the show, You will not find a finer shelter for the money. The new Polar Fire line of Merchandise can honestly compete with anything on then market for quality, and very little can touch it for price!

I will actually have four of these available on display and for sale now at the show. If you have not purchased a shelter already, or if anyone else is in the market for a hub style shelter, I assure you this is one of the best shelters on the market!
