what to use for a floor in a pop up

Postby fish Hooked » Thu Dec 27, 2012 8:26 am

Bought my first Eskimo fatfish pop up and have heard that some people put a floor in them looking for some ideas on what to use for a floor to insulate from the cold, your ideas please? thanks

My buddy uses big rubber entry rugs, he rolls them up and wraps them with a bungy cord for transport.

I use a thick layer of ice!!! :mrgreen:

The rubber puzzle mats are supposed to be good.
Be sure to put a tarp down first to keep them from freezing to the ice.
