Looking to see what everyone uses for chairs in a hub. I’ve used pails, summer chairs and an looking for something better. Thought about stealing my lodge seats and mounting them to something, just not sure what.

January 12, 2016 at 7:46 pm #1592079Aaron I like that. I use a tripod stool with a back on it. Tried the old style lawn chair and when I leaned for something to the side them old aluminum tube gave me a ride, twice. When I stepped out side with it, it went flying. Than I felt better and went and picked it up and finished the day in it. Never took that out again.

The ones with the cooler underneath you!

I’d highly suggest sitting in one before buying. My sack will never be the same after trying to sit in those one day. No matter what you buy I strongly suggest you sit in it before the purchase. Personally I don’t like chairs with arms. Just another obstruction to work around for me.

That looks pretty sweet…
How much, $100.00?

January 17, 2016 at 9:22 am #1593187A few years ago, I found a couple of director chairs at a garage sale for fifty cents each. I have used them for shore fishing, ice fishing & deer hunting ever since. Trying to get up from those stools or three legged chairs was a problem for me—–it slowed me up! And I found for ice fishing, these chairs made it easy for me to slip down to one knee to deal with the fish in my hole quickly. And these sit more like a normal chair height, so the stiffness isn’t as severe!

I got it for $79 as bass pro marked it wrong. I try this chair out and I taking it back because those arms get it the way. I did see one with out arms at Cabela’s so I think I’m going to try that one
October 6, 2016 at 5:16 am #1643409I got a folding seat at fleet farm ,in the front it has a big zippered pouch. Will hold a limit of Bluegill’s .l think it’s really made for shotgunning, pretty slick. DK.

They’re not cheap and are somewhat bulky, but they’re very comfortable. They also make one with arm rests, but it’s quite a bit more expensive.
October 8, 2016 at 9:40 am #1643862This one has worked great for the last couple years.

October 8, 2016 at 2:13 pm #1643879Anybody ever try the Redneck Outdoors Hunting Chair? Says it holds 350lbs. Height adjustable, swivels, and folds. I really like the thick padding on the seat and back.
16lbs may be a little much for a portability standpoint, but with an ATV or snowmobile it obviously isn’t much of a concern.
$90 is a bit much for me to bite on something I can’t try in person though. But the reviews do look good.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OM7LL0A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Zdu-xb6SBWD38

October 8, 2016 at 6:53 pm #1643891That is what I use

This style (doesn’t have to be this exact one) works fantastic
I like that its foldable and the connected tray is huge in my opinionOctober 8, 2016 at 8:06 pm #1643900I need all tall/strong chair because I’m 6’5″ and with heavy boots and clothes weigh 245. Those bag chairs are too low and you sit back too far to jig decent. Haven’t found the one that’s perfect yet.

Exactly why I asked about the Redneck Chair. I’m 6-3 250. The folding canvas/camp chairs are terrible to get out of and cut off the circulation in my legs after an extended sit, and a bucket doesn’t do my back justice. I’ve found myself standing, kneeling, or just leaning against my atv more because I can’t find a decent chair.
I may just bite the bullet and try it. If it doesn’t work for me, I will attempt to return it. I’ll report back once I try it.
