I have an Eskimo Wide one and am very satisfied with it. The seat is great. It's big enough to fish two hole very easily.
the fx100 is plenty big for larger persons, but if you want more room then the fx200 is the same base tub as the fx150 and same weight so i recommend the fx200 and you can get it in insulated version.i have some very large friends who use the fx100's. the newest version has beefed up seat support as well. just add a bleacher seat of your liking.
Agree 100%. I originally debated on the fx100 and fx150, and went with the 100 for the weight and price. couple years ago I found a deal on a 150 I couldn't pass up. I liked it for the room but the weight was enough that I stuck with the 100. Ended up buying a fx200 for when I need more room, and sold the 150 for what I paid for it. I'm 6'1 and 250, I'm not saying the 100 is roomy, but I have no problem spending the day in it.
dunhams has best everyday price on the fx100 at around 200$. add their 20% off coupons they offer and your set.
X2!!! I cut a camera hole "under" my left heal and can easily see and fish 2 more holes in the shanty.
'Affordable' means something different to everyone. Since you're looking for something that is affordable, what can you afford? What is your limit?
If it is me I would get the FX100i. Should fit your budget and give you the extra money for the hyfax kit for the bottom and cover.
I know some of you had asked to keep you posted on my shack purchase. I had my mind set on the Shapell but found a clam fish trap pro on Craigslist ,bought it last night for $80.00! Only issue is 2 dime size mouse holes in the cover. Otherwise in perfect shape. Thanks for all the info and help! Now I have to get busy tricking it out!
