Short lady putting up a hub shanty
AspensMom352:
I am 5'0" tall & plan to fish alone. A flip-over shanty won't fit in my vehicle. I have tried the hub-style shanties & can't get the top hub set due to my height & strength. Ideas???
Miles59:
You probably have a hard time reaching the hub to pull it out? Maybe try a foot long hook of some type to extend your reach? Also make sure you have one foot on the skirt while pulling on the hub. Good luck!
AGC:
1. Start with the roof section first.
2. If you will be by yourself maybe a smaller hunting blind will work.
AspensMom352:
The roof section is my only concern & I know that's where to start. I'm wondering if I could lay it on its side & secure it somehow & pop the top out sideways.

My Eskimo quickfish 2i is less than 6 feet tall in the center and likely closer to 5'9". I am 5'8" and when I stand up in the center my hat is touching the roof fabric. I would think you should be able to reach that.
