eskimo ice shelter

Thinking of buying a Eskimo. 2 man flip over. I can get it reasonable. What’s your thought on them?

I have the Eskimo 350. Other than being rather heavy, I really like it. The canvas is good, it’s set up and take down is easy. Lots of room.

I bought one about 6 years ago and I like it. The sled is a lot lighter (than say an Otter) but very easy to take in and out of the pick up. I have a padded bench seat which is nice. If you are going to pull it behind a sled or 4-wheeler a lot, if the sled is like mine it will not hold up too long. I do the majority of my ice fishing by myself and it is great for one guy, a little crunched with two but works when needed.

I have the 3 man Eskimo, put hyfax on it for sure if you are pulling it.

I picked one up last year and I am happy with it for the price. I don’t get a chance to use it alot but it is plenty roomy for 2 adults. The red fabric seems resonably sturdy. You do need to be careful not to pinch or tear it on the lower bow brackets.
