Portable Modifications

I would love to see some pictures of others portable modifications! I’m always looking for new ideas. I personally took out the seats in my Otter and built a plywood frame to go in the sled, so everything is compartmentalized, I now use the clam folding mesh seats for chairs in the Otter. Auger,rods,tackle boxes, bucket, chairs, heater, propane tank with tubing piped through all have there own compartments. Adds a little extra weight, but I like to keep everything organized and not falling all over in the bottom of the sled. Looking to put in lights and possibly a battery next!

I priced out having my two man flip re-canvased Vs buying a new one. Boat Tailor in Racine, WI gave me a very reasonable price to re-do mine. So, with that, I am re-configuring the front to extend out further and higher. I hate short rods with a passion and can’t sit all hunched over with a 12″ noodle in my hand. So my revised flip will accommodate at least 32″ rods.

do you have pictures to show what your otter looks like now?

Hope they help.

A modification. Not really to a portable. This would have been perfect for the first month of metro ice before the snow.

Lazzer,

I’m in the process of moving right now, i’ll see if I can take some next time I get some time to fish!
