2 things I recommend that are game changers for overnight ice camping. (1) Interlocking gym floor mats to keep the floor dry and help with heat loss. (2) A heat powered stove fan for the heater to help circulate the heat. The shelter would have 15 to 20 degrees warmer with one of those
Awesome!!! Just picked up my new eskimo insulated shelter... never really considered sleeping out on the ice, but... what a great idea! Can't wait to try it... kind if second guessing shelter.
It’s awesome trust me! With the right equipment it’s a ton of fun and very doable! We had an average temp of 62-64 on our last overnight in the shelter! It was 14 out blowing 25!
Thanks for the video. Did 6 nights in a tent on Moosehead in February out near Farm Island. 20 lb tank is the way to go. Also, you will want a tarp and foam exercise mats for a floor. Beautiful lake, have fun!
So awesome! Such great advice! Definitely something we will do on our next overnight! How was the temperatures at night? How’d ya do fish wise on the trip!? We are so excited to do our trip this next coming weekend !
@@Fishin4Adventure went down to -18 two of the nights. Single digits for the rest, strong winds to boot. Learned it's best to set camp up against shore to shield from wind. Brought an Eskimo 9416i for the overnight and a Otter Cabin flipover for day fishing. Way too much gear, not enough propane (or fresh water as it turned out). As a result the bait froze overnight when my ATV left me stranded two miles from the 9416i and I had to pull the Otter to camp by hand in the dark. If you are using a machine it's good to bring a lithium jump starter - unfortunately for me I left it at base when the ATV gave me the head ache. Looking forward to seeing your trip. Should be better weather than what I had.
Amazon sells a light & fan combo battery operated you can hang from the tent pole with an S hook to drive the heat down from the tent ceiling. Enjoyed your video!
Let some like out of you tip ups befor you set the hook. The reason is many times they haven’t swallowed the bait enough. When you go to set the hook, pull your line between both hand’s fingers until you feel the weight of the fish. That snap the line between you fingers toward the sky to set the hook.
Thanks so much!! Was our first skunk of the year so we really can’t complain to much! Plenty of chances! Really appreciate you watching! See ya soon I hope as well!
Great job guys.. we don’t often catch any trout on our overnight ice fishing trips either.. I’d recommend going for burbot if you want a good nite bite.. hope to see more this winter.. thanks for the upload
Thanks for the kind words! We definitely are going to plan our overnight trips this year where burbot fishing and night fishing is better in general! This particular lake had just hornpout! Really appreciate the kind words and comment! Happy thanksgiving!
With the tent you are using,,,it might be a great option to put a stove jack in and bring a portable wood stove. Nice dry heat. I've converted my Eskimo, just by using the existing windows for stove pipe jack. Other than that,,,, keep up the great videos. Cheers
That is such a good idea! We have been thinking about that option! We love wood heat too. Do you enjoy yours? No issues? Thanks for watching we really appreciate it.
@@Fishin4Adventure No issues., other than having to get up in the night to stoke it ,,,ha,,, other than that its's nice to be able to cook on the stove with the cast iron frying pan.I can send you a few pictures if you like to see how I set it up. Cheers ( darrenmoore3322@gmail.com)
Did my first ice camp last weekend. Howling wind and 8°. Had a great time though. If you’re looking to go again, definitely go for those foam puzzle pieces. Totally worth it.
@@Fishin4Adventure the gusts definitely tugged on the shack quite a bit. I had the three windward hubs staked down along with the skirt so she wasn’t going anywhere. With the buddy flex on high I was only able to hold it to 40°, but it’s the outbreak 650i so it’s a lot of room to heat. By noonish the next day when the wind settled and the sun came out I had it over 70°
Definitely was! We like to capture all aspects of the fishing trips we have! Was our first trip of the year skunked! Go figure and it was an overnight haha! Why they call it fishing!
If you get a wood stove fan, and notch the back, it’ll lock into the Gaurd on the heater, and you won’t need batteries. Also, you can get a propane tree, and run the stove, heater, and a Coleman lantern on it! Great trip guys. Love to see it!
Such a great idea! Definitely gotta do that! Interesting gotta look into that tree! Such great advice! We really appreciate it! Thanks so much for watching! You camp on ice often?
@@Fishin4Adventure I do. I want to try and get up into Maine next year with my daughter. We did a trip in MA this winter. It was a low of -3 that night, and she did great! I’ve done a few trips in VT already. You can’t beat a weekend on the ice!
You aren’t kidding! We made that improvement! What a difference! Plus a clip fan to push down the heat! We can’t wait to do an updated video this season with some upgrades! Thanks for the comment! We really appreciate it!
Good video. Many good tips and and also many great tips in the comments. Do you two know which eskimo tent would accommodate 3 cots like yours (we have the same mode cot) and a mr buddy heater? Thanks!
Thank you so much! The FATFISH 9416I or OUTBREAK 650XD would be able to fit 3! Definitely the floor insulation and a fan for the top to push the heat down are key improvements! Thanks again for the watch and comment!
Aww thank you so much! We made major improvements for our second overnight! So much better! We just posted that video around 10 days ago! Thanks so much for the kind words!
@@Fishin4Adventure you guys have some great metrics/views on RUclips. Make sue to ask people to Subscribe, you have a really fun channel! (I'm nerdy ... 3D Printing and Prop making, etc)
We haven’t! Definitely something we will check out! We have been interested in the jaw jacker traps as well! Thanks for the comment and watching! We really appreciate it!
Great video and it looked like you had fun. Too bad the fish kept dropping the bait. Couple of suggestions for ice camping. Always have floor mats to help insulate the floor. A lot of heat is lost right on the ice and the floor mats help with insulating. Even a tarp helps, or both. I've seen people cut holes in the tarp for where they'll put their holes, and then after the tarp they lay down floor mats so that they can walk around in their slippers at night. Next, a fan definitely helps putting one up at top to help bring the heat down. Even a small one helps. Definitely use a 10 or 20 pound tank so you don't have to constantly change the 1 pounders all night. Make sure there's plenty of ventilation if you're cooking in the tent. Did you have a carbon monoxide detector? They're definitely worth having even though those heaters are supposed to have sensors on them. Looking forward to seeing another ice camping video next season. Take care!
Thank you so much! I know those rainbows can be notorious! Such great suggestions! All things on the list of improvements for next year! Definitely need to get an alarm for next year, We didn’t sleep well even tho we had good ventilation. Would give us such peace of mind! Definitely more ice camping next season! We really appreciate you tuning in! We are so thankful for the advice!
Question.. I have the exact same 949i used with the buddy heater as well. When I woke up in the morning I was so groggy and a splitting headache. Almost certain is was from carbon monoxide. Did you do anything special for extra ventilation at night while running the heater?
Hey there! Yes we experienced the same thing the first few times! We always carry a carbon monoxide detector just to make sure! We always sleep with some windows cracked open which helps, having a battery powered fan on the ceiling of the shack near the rip vents does two things, pushes warm air down but always pulls in fresh air! Seems to really help the headaches and gives us peace of mind!
We have had a fantastic year, I jokingly said watch our luck run out when we put the most effort into the trip 😂. Still had a blast regardless we were long overdue!
People this is Reality ....ice fishing is Hard Work, no doubt about it. Ya can't prep enough.... And sometimes ya Can't get even set up because Flags are going off left and right.... annnnnnd sometimesssss they don't🤷🏻♂️ .... It's all about the EXPERIENCE right ... looked like a blast, You'll catch em next time 🎣 Tight lines
Said perfectly! We still laugh about this trip! First time being skunked that year and we put in the most effort that trip! That’s why they call it fishing!! Regardless we had a blast and learned so much for our next overnight! All about the experience is right! Thanks so much for the comment! Appreciate you tuning in!

Get gym mats that interlock together and you can use it as a floor

I wonder if the insulated huts pick up and hold the smell of the cooked food. I hate cooking in the hut
Nice video sure you heard floor Matt’s and a milk crate for the heater buddy so you do t melt the ice😺
Great ideas! We have floor Matts now! Such an improvement! Appreciate you watching and the kind words Kevin!
Nice job guys, Joey showed me your channel, see you on the ice some day!
Thanks a bunch! So glad you checked us out! Look forward to it! Hopefully next year 👍 definitely going to check out your channel! 👍
Looks like so much fun !! Next time snap together exercise mats to cover that ice !! Lightweight easy to carry and makes a BIG difference !!

Time for a bigger igloo
Even the best get skunked sometimes. Great video. Glad you guys survived the night. I’ll be staying tuned for the Moosehead redemption video. 👍
Good video. Many good tips and and also many great tips in the comments.
Do you two know which eskimo tent would accommodate 3 cots like yours (we have the same mode cot) and a mr buddy heater?
Thanks!

Careful around brook area always. Could be thin ice .
Definitely! This particular area has about 2ft of water under the ice and doesn’t get sketchy till way farther in! Definitely good ice safety tips!
Need to get mats on floor it will help with insulation from the cold ice
Definitely! First thing we did after this video! Watch this years we made tons of improvements!
Watched this years before last year's. See you upgraded to flooring which must of helped a bunch
Sure did! The fan to push the heat down was an unbelievable difference too!
dude the fan.. I have the same shake diffent cot and a fan that is also a light. also need yea foam mats :)
Yes 100%! We got one for this year we can’t wait to try it! And some Mats! Think it’s really going to help!
As a fellow Mainer, I love this!

That’s awesome! How do you like it? How do you vent?
@@Fishin4Adventure keeps us warm so far I cut a hole in the top for the vent and use welders blanket so it don’t touch

Hate getting skunked
Süper 👍🏻
Thank you so much
Seems like maybe your bait is to big for the fish in that area
The rainbows are so tough! We wished we had worms that day!
So many misses, damn!
Was brutal! First skunk of the year that year and of course an overnight trip!
why do yall keep reapeting over and over
How so?
