    New wheelhouse suggestions

    I'm kicking around the idea of buying a fancy wheel house. Any suggestions? I've only started looking on line, mainly at the Ice Castles. I definitely won't be using at as a camper in the summer, just ice fishing. Like the idea of making 1.5 or 2 day trips instead of long single day trips to places like mille lacs, LQP, Big Stone, etc.

    From all that I’ve seen, you can do a lot better than Ice Castle for the cost. They’re nice, but use some subpar components in areas that will leave you stuck. Look into offerings from the smaller companies. Firebrand in Milaca and Custom Designed Innovations in Saint Cloud are two that come to mind right away.
