    No clue - I assume the vet would’ve known enough to consider that and it’s been a day and he is breathing and pissing just fine. Even if it’s not good for him it certainly is better for him than being unable to eat or drink.

    Holy crap!!! As a southerner I gotta say that this is not even remotely close to what I imagined ice fishing was like. I was thinking more along the lines of sitting on a bucket with a cane pole freezing your ass off. My desire to try ice fishing has just increased by like 100,000%

    Me too, I’m actually curious about a lot of things. Like the actual structure for one - I assume it has to be movable so maybe like a shed on skids? When I first saw the photo I was thinking damn, that’s a sweet man cave. When I read the text about ice fishing I was pretty confused and trying to figure out how you could tell if you got a bite all the way from your living room. That’s when I noticed the portals in the floor and everything clicked.

    No kidding, I used to think I wasn’t a hardcore enough fisherman to enjoy ice fishing on account of all the cold and wind and ice. Now that I know what the proper ice fishing setup looks like I am pretty sure that the sport was invented specifically for me.

    Yup they are computer fans to distribute the heat better. Amazing what those little things do for that. This is my cousin's house. I've got the hunting land and equipment and he's got the ice house so it's a pretty fair trade off!

    This house is completely hydraulic so it takes literally 10 seconds from "road mode" to sitting on the ice. Just the two of us can drop the house, have all 8 holes drilled, house banked and have lines down in about 15 minutes.

    I will be the be the first to admit our portables haven't seen ice in about 5 years. I believe this is about 7500# so it's not an early ice rig but we are out now on 12" with a 4 wheeler with 0 worries.

    By hydraulic you mean as in you tow it like a trailer then when you get to your spot you raise up the wheels so it sits on the ground?
