Five gallon pails are standard issue furniture.

I hope your rugs stink like fish

, and I mean that in a positive way.

You should be watching your line and your flasher, not cartoons.

Kegerators are good for hours of family fun, although I have never had trouble keeping the beer cold out on the ice.

Mainehazmt · « **Reply #8 on:** Aug 27, 2006, 03:42 PM »

It's just a place to store it maybe keep it from freezing lol

Skipper · « **Reply #9 on:** Aug 27, 2006, 09:17 PM »

Only in the icebelt do people use refrigerators to prevent things from freezing!!

Long live our sport!

I still can't get my wife to understand that coming home from a fishing trip - open or hard water - and smelling like fish is a positive! Same with coming home from a hunting trip and having a little blood on your boots!

Depending on how much space you have i would definelty find some kind of furniture to sit on. Whether its a folding chair or something a little nicer, that will be way better than sitting on a 5 gallon pail all day.

TJG · « **Reply #13 on:** Sep 17, 2006, 10:09 PM »

Fold up beds for those long nights, and days!

brujharr · « **Reply #14 on:** Sep 19, 2006, 09:13 PM »

Old kitchen chair's with a pad on the seat! What ever wears out, patch, cover, or wrap with DUCT TAPE!

Leave them out in the shack. Low maintenance , you don't have to carry them around, comfortable, too recognizable to BORROW!

Make your shanty big enough so you can fit your futon in also....

Folding chairs, buckets, a small heater, a small radio..what else do you need?....

I, should mention one more small piece of furniture, in a shanty. The world famous,

, Fish cleaning, gearing fixing, bait cutting, card playing, beer drinking, food cooking and service, TABLE!

Fishkeeper · « **Reply #19 on:** Sep 20, 2006, 10:43 PM »

I'm with brujharr on this one....an old well padded kitchen chair and a couple of folding camp chairs for company.
I built a small table that folds up against the wall (if needed).
A stove and a wood box(doubles as a seat) complete my furniture .
I also have two heavy hooks in diagonally opposite corners to hook a string hammock to....if I ever need a nap

brujharr · « **Reply #20 on:** Sep 22, 2006, 10:46 PM »

Fishkepper, great idea on the hammock! And 100% right on being able,to fold or remove the table.

it's a yearly ritual for me to listen to the Daytona 500 on the ice. I save the satellite for the camping trips

billditrite · « **Reply #27 on:** Oct 20, 2006, 11:55 AM »

I like a little music...TV if Im spending the night...but not too loud

Skipper · « **Reply #28 on:** Oct 25, 2006, 06:14 PM »

I don't even like the TV in my house! The people on TV are usually yapping endlessly about something stupid anyway! I like Sponge Bob though, he is an alright feller.

It's all about the table. Friend's and family!!
