Take the family fishing.
This fish house is nice for fishing with a group of 4. I bought it when my boys were younger and, unfortunately, never got a chance to use it more than a few times. It sets up in a couple minutes with telescopic poles. Everything about the house is in excellent to near new condition. Asking $400

Hi knutty. No I just barely know how to use a computer much less get pictures on here. I am in the Waseca area if you are nearby stop and see it. Otherwise if you pm me your address I can snail mail you some pics. The house is great and in like new condition.

A few more questions Art.

Is it a brand name house or a kit? If so, do you have a model number? What type of base? Plastic? Plywood? How is it for mobility?

We have a group of guys that go up north and are looking for a "basecamp" house. I think the next time I will be up will be in southern MN, will be the second week of November. I will be in St. Peter, but we may do some fishing down towards Waseca that weekend. I will let you know when I know what the plan is.

The house was purchased at the ice fishing show in St. Paul. It was from a small company in Isanti MN. I am not sure if they are still making them because I haven't been up for a show since then. Definitely not a kit and definitely very well made. It has a plywood base, I think it is half inch treated plywood.
I would think it would work great as a basecamp.

It is a fairly heavy canvas. Now I am trying to remember the color. If I remember right it is two colors. I think the walls are green and the roof is more of a black color. It is hanging on the wall right now, if you really want to know the color I'll take it down and get that info to you.

I'm not sure, It is pretty dark but I think maybe not quite dark enough for spearing, esp in deep water. I don't spear so I'm not an expert on that. I can watch fish bite in 8 to 10 feet if that tells you anything.

If it is possible to take a look at the fish house please let me know, my cell phone number is 381-2776, I live in St Peter and work in Mankato, it would be nice if I could drive over after work and take a look, I will bring cash if I decide to buy.

Thank You
Dennis
