if its a small sled you can put together a better package watching sales, if its a big sled they are pretty pricey so it might be a good deal. just remember unless you are a midget or fish standing up, a 2 man tent is great for one person, I fish most tim,es with a 4 man, by myself its great, with the wife its just ok, room to be comfortable, but the more room the better. and a 3 point chair is a pain in the azz! OK in somewhere else but you will find out. unless you are a woman then no worries

I agree with the above, fishing tents are just that tents, like your average camping tent. Will fit 4 but in reality it just fits 2. but if you go too big mind you its harder to heat. that said its a great deal for someone just looking to get started, all the gear to keep you out of the elements. the first time i took my wife out I told her the technical use of the F150 parked just right to block the gale force wind, I bought a 4 man pop up shelter that evening for the next day of fishing.

I got 4 shacks now but looking for another sled but bigger then the one i got. If sled was big enough would keep the sled and get rid of shack and chairs cheap.

Looks like a decent little starter setup for some of the forum members who are just getting in to the sport this season. It's true the 2 man tents aren't that big, but some shelter is better than no shelter when you're getting started. Grab an inexpensive manual auger and you're set
