Quick take
A pop-up hub shelter with 300 denier fabric and replaceable fiberglass poles, designed for 6-8 anglers on the ice with room to spread out.
The THUNDERBAY Ice Cube is a pop-up hub-style ice shelter that sets up pre-assembled for up to six anglers. It has a 300 denier polyester fabric shell, fiberglass poles, six windows and two ceiling vents. Two doors, an extra wide skirt and a dozen ice anchors help it stay put on windy days on the ice.
