    That monster box and attachments sure look purty on my old four wheeler. After doing a lot of reading and browsing Otter Outdoors web site I decided what I was going to do to protect my gear. I just could not decide which box I wanted medium or large. After reading a post where Kooty was putting a cover on the top tray of his large box I thought I may need a large. But after talking to Matt Grow with some reassurance I decided to get the medium. I didn’t know when I ordered it but the medium has a weight capacity of 180 pounds, sure I know that fishing gear isn’t that heavy but I also know that ice jigs are pretty small. As you can see in the first picture I put my tackle bag, my VX1, and VS380 in it and still have plenty of room for tip ups, extra clothing, and anything else I think I may need. And the box also carries my rod box and auger. What else do I need?

    Yep, I love putting all of my junk into the trunk.

    I bought a used large box and it is a bit over kill, but the price was less than half of retail.

    That is a trip I can’t make at the drop of a hat.

    Good luck

    Why not just use a semi-truck?

    You know that stuff is not too expensive, sure the box cost more than other manufacturers boxes but Otter adds a lot of options that ice fishermen like. For example can you find a sweeter way to carry your rods or auger? They also make jugs to carry water or fuel and a carrier to haul 5 gallon buckets. And then you still have all of the room inside the box. I think the medium has 10.5 cubic feet and the large has 15 cubic feet, heck I had refridgerators with less room years ago.

    Only thing that would make that set-up sweeter would be tracks on the 4 wheeler.

    That is just nice, rather have it and not need it than the other way around.
