One Pound Propane on Sale

Recommended Posts

I saw Menards has the Coleman 1 lb propane cylinders on sale. 4 for $10 through July 6. I believe that is a decent buy.

Solid deal! Thanks for the share. I need to get to refilling these things. I have the setup. 

 

What am I doing wrong, I can only get, if I'm lucky, a bottle a third full. Leave the one pounders outside nearly 20 degrees and the full 20 pounder at room temp in the garage at 58 degrees, hook up turn over, open valve and leave well over 10 minutes, close valve, turn  upright and disconnect.

You need to burp the pressure relief valve a little bit with it still attached to the 20 pound tank.  this gets rid of the air/dead space in the 1 pound tank.  Search you tube for " Refilling 1lb Propane Cylinders using the pressure relief valve method (non-chill)

Thanks, instructions that came with the adapter say nothing about having to bleed the bottles while filling.

Just went to Menards in Eden Prairie. Bought a bunch of 1 lb'ers for $3.12 and then they took 15%

off because they have that 15% off all you can put in a bag deal.

Sorry, not a 5lb tank. An 11lb

 

And today I paid $1.89 to top it off. My hunting budy  has run on it for 28hrs in the original fill. 

 

So glad I went away from the 1lb tanks. Just a waste of time and money.

I used to lug around a 10 pounder. Then ran a hose to the heater.  1 pounders cost more but easy peasy so I pay the extra.

well,  I bought the mr heater 1 pound tank adapter for 15 bucks on amazon smile.  really works great!   took a little bit to figure it out.  gotta let all the air out of the small can first. 2 minutes puts 1 pound back into the can. :)

I've just paid the price(about $3.00-$3.50) for them this year because of convinence. This weekend I only used up 4 in 3.5 days of fishing, heater was on low almost the whole time.

I've found it works best with a warm supply tank upside-down and cold 1lb tank. If the 1lb tank had just a little fuel left in it, it seams to work better yet.

Does it really matter when you have to buy the questionable 20 to 1 fill tip only on line? :whistle::lol:

Also look on youtube and there is a video showing exactly how it works. Seems safer to me than the the adapter I bought for the green tanks and still havent bothered to use.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
