There is only really one word for you to know, "OTTER" Jim
Nice realistic comments gents!Good to see that were not brainwashed trap guys!Good Luck
I am pretty loyal to the trap's, but after seeing a few of my buddies Otters up close their material is much thicker than the traps. Over the years it seems the traps have skimped on their fabric. The Otters have much heavier poles also and the sleds are indestructible. Don't get me wrong, I have been through some nasty wind storms in my traps and they have faired well. Where I live there are no Otter dealers close by and the shipping for on-line orders is outrageous. Yeah, they are the most expensive of all the flipovers, but you gotta pay for quality. If I had a dealer close by I would probably be dragging an Otter this year. I have not seen the new Fish Trap X up close but in the pictures it looks like they have beefed up the sleds and used the heavier square poles like the Otters.
For a two person shanty, I will create a small poem...Fish Trap Pro is the way to go!Or....... a Fish Trap Guide is plenty wide.
I am a clam fan. For 2 people to fish in, the guide will work, but for an extra 100-150 id spring for a Yukon. I bought one last year after getting rid of my 5600. Not great for camping in but it has plenty of room for you and a couple others.
What kind of advice do you have, clam, ice cube, pop up. I want the best bang for my buck here, what holds in the heat best, folds up in 1-2 minutes, and has enough room for 2 guys?
