Clam Summit 6 X 8 4-man portable ice fishing pop-up |
||||||||||
| The Clam Summit is a great, roomy, easy set-up pop up. I've personally spent about 400 hours inside the same one in all sorts of weather temps and it worked everytime. I've set it up myself in 20 MPH winds without losing it. I've had it stuck together from the moisture in it from yesterday's trip and then -30 last night so this morning it won't completely pop-up. It was so iced up we put the heater in it to get it to upop open completely. I have not been nice to my Clam Summit. I don't dry it out in the basement between uses. I let it stay frozen in the sled outside. It gets set up when it's -15 and then heated and breathed in all day long and I fold it up at day's end only to repeat the process the next day, frost, ice and all. My Clam Summit is an older one where they didn't include the shaft collar reinforcements on the poles at the hubs like they do today so it's seeing wear around the fiberglass poles right at the little knobs in the aluminum hubs. Eventually, those will break off but given how much time I've put into this tent shuddering in the wind all day and just setting up and knocking down, I got my money's worth out of it. I like the space. The only gripe would be that my regular Mr. Heater can barely keep up by itself so we bring a second one with a 20 lb. propane tank outside. Problem solved. Thsi is a very nice, roomy tent from Clam. If you want a lot of room for two guys or want comfortable space for three, or contolled space for four with one hole in each corner, heater in the middle, the Clam Summit will do the job. -JB- |
