Yours is a flipover Surf? I'll have to check it out and see how it pulls by hand...
I just got the Shappell 6000. Pops right up. Breaks down fast! $179 at fish307!! This model folds up to about the size of a camp chair. So far the slickest I've seen.
as far as fold down flat Portables go, myself personally, I think you can't go wrong with the Shappel Portables. I've seen a few that were 5 to 10 years old and still getting the job done ! Not to bash Clam intentionally, But there are a lot of guys taking about quality control issues with the clam portables, weak assembly bolts, seats grenading and poorly constructed tents ! I've been using my Frabill XL Twin for 10 years now with 0 problems, so I'm kind of biased as far as flip overs go ! Good luck with your decision and Happy Holidays !
Thats the model I have and love it
how would these fair in high winds like we have now?....or any type of wind?
Just returned from fishing BIP ....bonanza day-4 dozen shiners gone in 3 hours...to answer your windy question, if they are anchored properly there are no issues. Well at least in my many years experience.Tight Lines!!!!!
thanks dispy..........so whats anchored properly mean?.......how do you anchor yours?
The built in ski's on the Shappell Dx4000 sounds like the way to go .. thanks for the info.
parts are skimmed over....parts have 4" ......still to early in my opinion
