Favorite chair or seat for a hub style house


Wirenut

Recommended Posts

For you hub house guys, what is your seat of choice for fishing, thinking of buying a hub house this year and wondering about the chairs to have to go with it. I have always owned flip over houses.

Today was the first day fishing out my hub house. I second the director style because of comfort and the little table on the side came in a lot handier than I thought it would. It also seemed to stay put a little better than the other chairs. I added a couple rod holders to it and will provide a pic if you want to see it.

A 5 gallon bucket. It holds stuff on the way out and doubles as a chair. What can I say, I like to bring as little out with me as I can.

I sit on the sled I built on skis. has a little shelf for drink and lures, holds the rods, minnow bucket and I mounted lights on the side to light up the inside when fishing. All my tackle and extra gloves and battery go under the seat. when I'm done fishing everything packs on top of it to easily pull off the lake.

I use a folding chair with a welcome mat for my feet. The folding chairs take very space on the way out and welcome mat keeps your feet off the ice and helps to keep things from the magnetic pull of the hole.

If I am not worrying about packing light, then Director chair for sure - Comfy & sturdy. If I want to pack light, I am fine with the 5 gallon bucket seat.

Beware of using camp chairs not designed for freezing conditions - there is too much plastic parts in key areas. Plastic they often use and cold temps don't mix well, gets brittle and can break easily in fridged conditions.

I picked up a Millenium G100 blind chair this fall. Little spendy. But a very comfortable chair, very lightweight. I intend to use that in my house this winter. height is adjustable, folds up nice. Should work well

I bought a swivel folding chair for sportsmans guide for around $25. Best chair ever and way cheaper then others. But...it comes with a few more pounds so if you're into light weight, then think others.

I just added a stadium seat to the tote and really like the height and comfort. It is very stable without having to fasten it to the lid. The tote has everything I need in the hub plus it is big enough to store my flasher and extra paper towels, tackle, gloves... ect.

I use my clam chair exclusively. Holds and protects your rods and lots of other stuff whether out in the open or in my pop up.

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Great news, thank Skunked  
    • jim curlee
      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.
    • SkunkedAgain
      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.
    • PSU
      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?
    • Jetsky
      Thanks for the heads up. Cigar.
    • monstermoose78
      The price will blow your mind if they get some 
    • CigarGuy
      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
