Thread: Yeti coolers

Yea i have used 5lbs of minnows several times and I sure dont want to run out when im fishing in a tournament. If im going somewhere to pre-fish for a week, I will usuall take about 20lbs with me and keep them at my hotel and get what I need out each day to fish with.

Dang. Just do what G3T does and have Minnertroller sit on the dang Coleman and save yourself 300 bucks. 'sides, that's mostly all a partner is good for anyhow....except in Triton's case, but not in except of April's case.

Wannabe...

See if I bait your hooks anymore

You guys have obviously missed the point. There is no doubt that Yeti makes a great cooler and they are expensive when compared to some others. But they are intended to be a status symbol and a great, expensive cooler. Kinda like a Rolex. You can buy a watch from Walmart that keeps better time for less than $10 but that's not the point. These bad boys are for folks that have more money than sense. You can't hide money and this is just another way to show it.Rofl

Can you catch fish with that unit?

I am a bachelor and I bought a 75 quart because I can.

We use it mostly for trips where we are going to be gone for a few days or we're going to need a lot of ice. Part of what makes these work is to eliminate a good amount of air space. Keeping that in mind, I would use a 45 more, but I bought this one for long trips and such. A 45 quart is next on the list.

When we get back from those trips, the cooler is usually still 2/3 or more full of ice, so I'll drag it over to the living room and use it as a beer cooler until the ice runs out. That can sometimes take a week inside.

Another great use for it is a second fridge during Thanksgiving and Christmas and such. A couple of frozen 2 liters and a defrosting turkey will keep the cooler plenty cool enough for casseroles and such. I guess it also makes the eyesore of a giant beer cooler in the middle of the living room bearable because she doesn't really get on to me about it.

The biggest drawback is the weight. Sucker is heavy.
