What do ya think? I know there are a bunch of us here that have ice shacks. I was thinking that it would be nice to fish different bodys of water now and again. We could make a list of the guys that would be willing to let someone else use their shack. I think that this could work out alright. What are your thoughts?

it could work , but there seems to be a trend towards the portable flip up types vs the wood shack.

It's such a good idea I think I am going to get my sh*t together and build my shack.

i think last year i figured about $200.00 as long as i used chip board not real plywood. yes the durability thing comes into play but it's in the $$$$$$$$ at hand i guess

Friend of mine built one a few years back, it worked OK but he had used a cheaper blue tarp to cover it, this caused a few problems, but other then that worked ok
