Frabill Recon 100

Frabill Recon 100. Anyone have this one, if so what do you think of it.. Thinking of getting a one man and this was best price I found.

I looked at them all and I even get a discount on Frabill. With that being said, spend 20 bucks more and get a Shappell fx100. More square footage of fishable space, that widens on the frame in front of you, thicker shell (600 vs 300) and a smaller footprint for ease of transport. The frabill will fit an auger in its sled, where the shappell will not. However, that was a minor point as you can just prop it on the seat when walking and I have an auger rack on my sled for that style of fishing. ER

BTW...... I was up in Michigan and stopped in at the Dundee Cabela's. The fx100 is on sale right now for 199 bucks. However, they only had the floor model left when I spoke to the guy. Columbus store had two in the box remaining. According to the associate, that's all they had left in the store system inventory. Nice little shanty for the price.
