Website update!!!!!!

FishHouseForSale is being updated! After 7 years its time to make the worlds leading site for Ice Fishing Houses even better.
Since this is the early stage of a 2-3 month process, any ideas to improve the site would be greatly appreciated! email to info@fishhouseforsale.com. One great idea already recieved is to have a search option for fish houses with utility doors that allows a 4 wheeler or snowmobile to be hauled inside the fish house.
Thanks to everyone who has used the site to find the ice fishing house of their dreams, or to sell their existing house (hopefully to upgrade to a better one).

Hot new pop up shelter.

I've always asked why pop up Ice fishing shelter manufacturers didnt make a camo version that could be used as a blind in the fall.  Sportsmans Guide has come thru in flying colors.  I just ordered and recieved mine last week, and couldnt be happier. 
Although the trend to bright accent colors on the fabric of fish houses might make the lake more interesting, I am not a fan.  I want to blend into the shoreline, not advertise my position.  Enter the Sportsmans Guide pop up.  Construction appears very good.  There are 12 windows around the outside.  All open with velcro, all have a camo mesh cover as well as a solid flip up fabric cover to block the light.  The 4 largest windows, one on each side have a velcro attached clear window option that provides great visibilty to the outside.  Each wall has a pocket to hold items, and as a dual use shelter, one panel on the top even zips down for duck hunting!  The inside is blacked out to let in zero light with the windows closed.  The camo carry bag is plenty big so you dont have to fight putting it back when its time to go.
I have been using an Eskimo Quickfish 6 for I think 5 years now,  (I have the old green version) and love it!  But when I decided to add a smaller pop up (this one is 5 ft x 5 ft x 6 ft tall) I had to go with Camo.  Hopefully all the pop up manufacturers will figure this out and make their own versions.  Only one I have seen is this one from Sportsmans Guide and at $149.00 its a great price!  You can see it here
