I was at Wal Mart in Hilliard last night and they have catalytic heaters for $10. It is 880 BTU heater with a carrying case, 2 thermal blankets and waterproof matches. It would the perfect size for shanties.
Would 880 be enough though? When I was fishing hard through the ice, I had a 9000 BTU, and sometimes it wouldn't keep up.
Heaters? Oh man. You guys need to dress for the weather! LOL. All the movement I get from drilling holes pulling fish through the ice keeps me warm. Maybe someday. My goal for this season is purchasing a power auger, then maybe I'll need that heater!
Just take ZFISH out with you ! He's so full of hot air it will stay 75 degrees in the shanty even on the coldest days !
Lol Thanks Phil.. I do like ice fishing though and I do keep warm so Im gonna take that as a compliment.

I like the fact that it has a fan to blow the warm air out. Probably enough to take the edge off any cold air, huh? Super small size, too.
i got one of those hardwater fan..its great for my van when i'm out in mid winter carping in the blizzard... i have never use the fan on it yet..
I took a look at that Power Cat today, its not small at all like i said earlier. Still kinda nice though.
