5 Best Ice Fishing Tents

Whether you are looking for your first Ice Fishing Shelter or are looking to upgrade your current ice fishing tent this list is for you. Choosing the right ice fishing shelter for your needs comes down to several factors. Follow along for more insights to help you with your decision.

Capacity

First, you’ll need to determine how many people you’ll expect in your fishing party. Most shelters range from being able to hold 2-6 anglers. Options like the Frabill Hq300 and the Eskimo Quickfish 6 are great options for larger fishing parties.

Insulation

Insulated ice fishing shelters are a great way to lengthen your stay out on the ice. While their shelters generally cost more than standard tents, they add much-needed warmth and comfort to your ice fishing excursions. We carry quality insulated blinds from brands like Eskimo and Shappell.

Windows

Choosing a shelter with windows that fit your needs can greatly enhance your fishing experience. Shelters like the Frabill Hq200 feature windows that let in the warmth of the sunlight without the bitter chill of the wind.
