Here I was thinking I was fancy with my thermos full of chicken noodle soup hahaha. These set ups are really cool. I hand pull my sled so I'm always trying to find the right balance of weight and cool features.

[robgrubb]

these are always fun please keep doing this every season.

Excellent work Alex. I loved the interviews with everyone 👍

[richardhankinsjr]

Thanks for the video. I always enjoy seeing what people do with their shelters.

[fishingwithshawno]

Give us more. I love the ingenuity! Some great ideas there!

Not sure why I never thought of magnetic strips for tools. I'm always trying to find them spread around the shelter. Will definitely be incorporating this idea this year. Thanks for covering this event.

This is probly cooler then seeing all the new product releases lol seeing what everyone invents or comes up with is very cool, but the older gentleman grew up back when if you wanted something, you didn’t buy it, you made it or improved it to your liking, cool to see what the older gentlemen come up with,

[ericwest]

Hey Alex! Love your videos and the tips you share. Could you make a video on what you recommend for new buyers this year/best bang for your buck, specifically for LiveScope or Panoptix? With Black Friday coming up, I’m planning to buy whatever the best deal is, but I’d love to hear your thoughts on what’s worth getting in 2024. Thanks in advance!

Alex, do you know where the family got or how they made those custom shelves they have in their Clam X300 and X1200 ice houses?

[bullyarena]

is it to much to ask for a 4 in 1 or 7 in 1 type jacket and bib/wader set with all the bow hunting, tactical and ice fishing features like good fit, camo, waterproof, windproof, zipper under arm, side arm access, silent fabic, harness port, stretch thumb hole cuffs, hood and neck gaiter, tactical pocket placement and float tech or do we have to keep buying seperate items? Should fix that imo...and why arnt shelters lined with mylar or some heat reflective material? Itd save weight and cost no?

[blainebartz]

I like them but they still catch fish like everyone else the rest is fluff lol
