Hey Guys, Just got a new boat and need a decent chilly bin - something that can hold a few kingfish and snapper from a days/weekends fishing. Just wandering where to get one for a good price and a decent size - any recommendations? I like the long ones instead of the big square ones. ------------- By and large the reporting is factual, but in a few instances I have claimed the right of readjusting the facts to which every angler is entitled. |

Haha depends on the size of the kingfish. Personally I would gest a smaller bin say 72l and a cooly bag for bigger fish. Icey-tek are very good. See the guys are fish city for a deal. ------------- http://www.legasea.co.nz" rel="nofollow">

yeah we tend to keep if over 85cm looks like the Icey Tek 115L or Waeco cool-ice 112L are the way to go, question is are the icey tek worth the $$$ difference? http://www.fco.co.nz/online-store/products/Waeco-Cool-Ice-Icebox-112L.aspx?pid=215897&menuFrom=20501#Cross" rel="nofollow - http://www.fco.co.nz/online-store/products/Waeco-Cool-Ice-Icebox-112L.aspx?pid=215897&menuFrom=20501#Cross versus http://fishcity.co.nz/boating/boating-bits/chilly-storage-bins/icey-tek-115l-bin-long.html" rel="nofollow - http://fishcity.co.nz/boating/boating-bits/chilly-storage-bins/icey-tek-115l-bin-long.html ------------- By and large the reporting is factual, but in a few instances I have claimed the right of readjusting the facts to which every angler is entitled. |

There's a free chilly bin on the way out to Huia. Just follow your nose. I could smell it a long time before I passed it. Seems some lazy **** forgot to clean it, so thought best to just dump it. Was swarming with blow flies < id="adlesse_unifier_magic_element_id" style="display:none;">Another vote for Icey Tec. I've got a 90L long and It's the only bin I've owned that hasn't let me down. ------------- What's the cheapest type of meat? Dear balls. They're under a buck. |
