Thanks for posting. What type/make portable shanty were you sitting in, in the video?

that's actually the Kelty Cabana, which is a sun shelter normally used for beaches and ball games and such. it's basically half a dome tent and makes an AWESOME ice fishing windbreak providing you have ice anchors for it. i got mine pretty cheap on Amazon, and there are plenty of other styles and brands out there. the only downside i've found is that the chair i use is abnormally tall for a camp chair, so when i'm sitting in it i'm about 5 feet tall, but the Cabana is only 4.5 feet tall, so i had to sit on a small bucket that trip. i have other chairs that would work just fine though, and the floor is water-resistant, so in deeper snow you could theoretically plop down without a chair and be perfectly comfortable and dry.

I like that!  What a great idea! I have been debating getting something to use as a "Ice-Shanty" short of buying an actual portable shanty made for ice-fishing.  They are just a bit too pricey for me all things considered but was wondering about alternate less expensive alternatives I can use like a hunting blind, tent, etc. Big reason is also for my kids to have a private place to do their business in a bucket if you know what I mean when we are out ice fishing all day.  I like it. Thanks.
