I bought an old one man Farbill flip-over shanty this past summer at a garage sale for fifty bucks and have been fishing with it this season! Man, I tell ya, I don't know how I ever fish without one. All those years of sitting on a bucket, fighting the wind and cold. Now I can stay warm and fish so much better, it carrys all my gear and pulls real easy. Life is good on the ice now! Go ahead and post your commets on how you ever fish without one.
Got my eye on the Yukon for next year, that way I can bring my 11 pound dog with me (he loves hanging out with Dad)!
Good luck and be safe,
Steve
