Because of your review, we just bought the exact same trailer, used. We have to wait tell May because of the snow and the need to sell our small trailer. Thanks for your 3 year update

I just sand it down on the inside and reseason it. Dosnt mater if its OT or lodge its still cast iron

Enjoyed this video. Love the vintage gear. After many years fishing graphite, I’ve been fishing a 4wt fibreglass with a click and pawl reel. I agree 7’6” seems a good length. Excellent for creeks out to medium rivers. I’m finding the fibreglass great fun.

Incredible work! Congratulations on a job well-done!

Damage and wear won't help tone, and tone is all that matters.

*tremolo, but yeah

Beautiful. I love the buckle rash on th eback. How did you age the fretboard. Looks authentic

A brilliant first step into your new career as an art forger! :)

Do you feel like the grates is a little high causing the pan not to heat up as fast?

Lodge is superior. The Ozark trail cast iron pans are not worth buying. They are junky. Tiny handle and very rough on the inside. Don't buy it! Walmart does carry Lodge skillets. Buy those and don't even think twice. It's not a huge price difference anyway. The Ozark Trail cast iron pans should be sent back to China where they belong.

Lodge is cheap enough for camping. My expensive smooth American made cast iron (Smithey, Field, Lancaster, Stargazer) stays home.

Well, Ozark Trail has a significant amount of toxic metal in it and Lodge does not.

If you are going to keep the Chinese pan, you can sand it out like I did to my lodges! Now paper towels don't get ripped and leave itself all over the pan! It doesn't take too long to resurface them,vand if you do the Chinese pan, you may want to do the same to the Lodge! As much as I hate Chinese pans if you sand it smooth, the inside, and leave the Lodge rough, then your Chinese pan will perform better than your Lodge.

American is always better than Chinese! So no, Chinese cast iron isn't worth it, especially when there is very little difference in price!

Why does Walmarts say lead, arsenic on the label in fine print. 🤔🤢☠

Great video! I know I’m a little late but have you ever had problems with the wall mounted a/c leaking into the camper? And has it had enough cooling power when it’s really hot outside? Looks like maybe 6000 btu? Thanks again for the video!

I spent 1999. On a bag @ Cabela's in Denver 2 years ago. Great bag

Looking to get a pair of these boots with rubber soles because of felt sole restrictions in certain states. I'll probably install the studs that they sell, too.

How do you like those simms waders?

If you're having problems with the WD hitch bars you need to have someone check your install. I have a similar hitch and have zero problems with tight turns, they're only noisy on such turns.

Good video , not cringe like alot of other fly fish videos . Keep up the good work

I have the same exact model. So far so good. Knock on wood.

Did you try power sanding it? I've seen that it helped some people. After seen this I'll stick to paying the extra for Made in U.S.A Lodge. Black Steel or Carbon Steel pans are amazing too.

Thanks for the review. Any reason you got these instead of the pilot 2’s? Can’t find the difference online

This is quite easily one of the very best flyfishing videos on the internet. You capture the heart of the experience and the almost reverential sense of place that most videos miss.

Thank you for the review I’m thinking of getting one for a family of three

The ducks make the channel. It’s like you got them trained.

No wind screen is wild for this price tag

It's not even a question that needs asking. On the one hand you've got an affordable, quality, US-made product from a 128-year-old American company. On the other hand you've got a cheap, Chinese-made product from a mega corporation, that does everything it can to make small communities wholly reliant on them... and then pulls up stakes and destroys said communities. There is no comparison. Buy Lodge.

It's another post about the look at me routine. Narcissistic personalities ruin it for others who want to be alone. Have to listen to some stupid music along with the beauty of nature. That gets old!

Thank you so very much

5 minutes with a mouse sander with 80 grit then reseason.

I’m lucky to have tried several manufacturers. I have Ozark and have had great success with them. They definitely are rough and I just sanded the 6 inch pan smooth and it works perfectly for all foods.

You look at me clowns sure know how to mess up a good river

Yo, why you gotta blab about your fave spot to everyone? Can't we keep some places on the down-low so they don't get wrecked?

Do you ever have an issue with wind? Been contemplating for a little bit about a camping stove and not sure if I should go with one of these or a standard one with wind guards built in.

Was looking into the hideout or coleman 17b

I’m a stove addict and own stoves using wood, alcohol, iso, propane and dual fuels. I bought this very Coleman stove new, unopened in January 2024 from Walmart for $39 plus tax. I also own the Genesis Base Camp System and I can say from first hand experience that the Coleman at almost 1/10th I paid for the Genesis is a great value. The spring back on the control knob is a quick and easy fix making simmering easy.

What is the name of the Walmart cast iron pan?

Hi, I have a 2021 Hide out, 186ss (have a slide out.) I've put slot of miles on mine. I have some problems under warranty. Front jack replaced twice, some frame to body supports bent and cracked, water leak at kitchen faucet, roof leak at front top where cap and roof meet, (caulking was cracked and had torn away) two of the tire rims cracked, and two of the tires separated. (Tire manufacturer and Rim manufacturer warranty the bad tires and rims) They also replaced the spare time and rim in case it was a bad batch. Like you my plastic end caps came loose where I store my stinky slinky. I drilled a small hole into the metal tube and cap to keep the plastic caps from coming off. I remove the screw to remove the cap when I have to remove my stinky slinky. I made a mount I installed on the back of a solar panel and set it on my propane tank when not using my trailer while parked. You can buy the cable to hook into the solar control box to the side of the trailer. I will still be using it for years to come still. The slide out really opens up the square footage. I have stayed in it for two to four weeks. I sleep better in it that the two thousand square feet house I live in. Weird? Get out and enjoy your trailer often. (Side note: I watch : I ride tiny House Adventures) they have a meet up in Missouri in June. Their were over 165 in attendance at the last meet up in October in Alabama.

About 5 months ago I picked up a 6 inch ozark trail on clearance for $1 at Walmart. The sharp roughness of the pain was impressive. I didn’t even attempt to cook on it. It was so bad that it would scratch your skin running your hands across it. I decided to spend an hour resurfacing it. Starting with 60 grit and moving to 120/300/600/800/1000/1200 and got a good polish on the whole thing. Then seasoned it 4 times. I will say it’s now my favorite egg pan. It’s completely non stick. It preforms like my very expensive vintage skillets and because of the price I don’t worry about it. It stays in my kitchen for eggs and goes with me when camping. Knowing what I can do with them with a little work I decided to buy a whole set to leave in my camping gear and I love them now. Very cheap way to get an entire set of cast iron that performs like high end cookware with a little effort up front.

I have them and they get so much water and sand very heavy with the long use

Great info! Thankd

I have used the used the Ozark cast iron for a few years now. it think its fine as a cast iron. the only things that concerns me that its made in china and the may have cut some corners to make it cheap, and there a black paint coating that strips off. wondering if thats a concern.

Glad to hear a good review on a camper for once! Blessings 🙏

Do you think this would be a good trailer to full time in year round?

They put the ozark trail skillets on sale at my local Walmart. I purchased the three remaining 7.5” for $3 and the last 10” skillet they had for $7.73. I plan on taking an orbital sander to them to smooth them out. I’ve also heard that soaking it afterwards in white vinegar will help the new seasoning stick.

Great video - we may be buying the exact same one. I was really curious - what is the coupler height? Want to know where I need to put my hitch ball. Thanks.

Just ordered a Fold- N-Go after watching numerous video reviews. Other reviewers have mentioned the lack of burner control and the knobs "self adjusting" to higher levels, on their own. Their solutions were: (1) remove the knobs and any excess packing grease behind them, then re- lubricate with something lighter. (2) Place a small ,flat, cut piece of leather ( or rubber washer, etc.) behind the knobs to act as a friction plate, to help them hold the desired position. Sounded like great the solutions to the only issue with this stove, so I thought I'd pass it on.
