how many in two person
« on: Jan 09, 2011, 08:51 AM »
hi im looking at buying a frabill trekker 2, i was just wondering how many people can actually fit into it. It says 2 but looks like you could cram 3 or 4 in there.anyone tried to fit more in there?

My oldest brother bought this and three of us WERE going to fish out of it but it was a little to crammed... you could definitely fit three but not likely enjoy yourself. Good shelter though...

I've packed my wife and kid into a Clam Scout before, but we're not all that big.  We did have room for a jigging hole, though. If it's really cold and nasty out, you could get out of the weather in it for sure, but even the number of people they say you can fit in a shelter is a little cramped for the most part.

i have a trekker 2 deluxe with two swivel seats I'm a big guy in the 350# range my fishing buddy is probably 225# both under 6 feet tall and we fit very comfortably ,plenty of room  enough for 3 holes but defiantly not another person ,however the base model {non deluxe} ,has a bench seat and i would think 3 small people could fit and not be to cramped .why not go to a store that displays one with a bench and give it a shot.

I have a clam yukon and it has two padded swivel bucket seats in it and well my and my fishin parnter are both big fellas im six foot one and hes probably like 5 8 but we are both in the 300# range and we fished him and my self and another guy in there. he just sat on a tripot chair in the front corner of the hut opposit the door. we probably had about 5 holes drilled in there it worked and actually wasnt all that uncomfortable the third guy just to get an idea was prolly close to 6 foot tall id say and probably between 165 and 200 pounds.

Myself, my ex and one of her friends all fished out o my pack shack once... They shared the chair and I sat on a bucket. It was "a bit" tight!
