About 85 percent sure they’re all 6 hole 16 foot skid houses. Theyre very entry level. Classical ice house though, has everything you need to catch fish comfortably, but they’re not going to please anyone looking for a high end house. I live on the lake. I can probably answer most of your questions if you still have them

I think amazon has some pretty decent cases around 40 inches in length and about 50 bucks. Probably going to go with that one.
as far as color goes, i think I’m leaning on that hot pink, seems like a popular color.

Ben what rod case do you transport all your rods in?

Either the noodle or the bullwhip!
Leaning heavily towards the bullwhip

Take an old coffee can and fill it full of card games and dice. You never know when the fish won’t cooperate. I feel like I can never have enough lighters either. I’m always finding good uses for them.
Flashlights / headlights.
Lots of batteries.
Extra sweatshirts/gloves
If you plan on going to red lake or LOW ( or any large body of water ) prepare for the worst. White out conditions can happen in a blink of an eye and without the proper gps you could be stuck. Not fun, trust me.

Thanks guys, I went with some atom line. I just picked a bunch up at the duluth show. Didn’t see any pig bugs, I plan on having a good variety.
We will see how they work tonorrow
