Clam vs. Eskimo vs. Otter

[Jiffy]

Well, right now I fish by myself but I have a lady friend from Louisiana I’m bringing back up here in April so that’ll be 2 of us. Yes, she’s lived up here before when she was the editor of the newspaper in Beulah and is looking forward to something other than muggy, buggy, bayou weather. That’s why I went with a pop-up, not only for the lower cost but to be able to pack it in the back of my Subaru Outback. I can’t keep the sled loaded when I put it in the back but if I got it where it all packs in pretty good.

But can she cook? OMG I love that region’s food!!

Still got some gumbo frozen up in the freezer she made when she came up here in November for deer season.
When I was down there in Eunice last year for Mardi Gras, I think I came back with something like $200 worth of Boudain, crawfish and gator in my suitcase praying that the airline didn’t fly it to Timbuktu instead of Fargo!

Train dogs with guys from down there a winter trip running dogs and eating is in my future. Cajun food is the best i get live crawfish every spring and have a big boil.

You are set up good for now. I've got a friend that fishes out of an Outback. It is an ice fishing machine. Enjoy the rest of the winter, some great fishing coming up.

I have the old style, 2-man, uninsulated, Clam FishTrap. I have had it for MANY years with no issues. I have been thinking about getting a new one. I want the uninsulated one because of the weight of the thermal ones.....I don't think that I can get it in the back of my truck anymore.
I don't think that a person can buy an uninsulated one anymore....if you know of a company that makes an uninsulated flip-over...please advise.
Thank you!

I have an older uninsulated Clam Yukon. I actually upgraded the same old sled/pole system with an insulated tent. Called Clam with the model number they set me up. Added some weight but still not near as heavy as the new ones. 200-250, somewhere in there for the new tent.
