For Ice Fishing and hauling gear to the hunting blind the Big Otter Box on the back of an ATV works great for me. On my 660 Grizzly for ice fishing all my rods minnows jigs and heater are in it, great upgrade

That thing looks like it would put alot of weight on the back?

NICE!  We have a Grizzly too, just never looked into something like that, just usually strap everything to the front or back racks.
I wouldnt suppose it would weigh down the back too much, we usually ride 2 men on the back of ours when we go out on the lake.... sits pretty low, but still is high enough off the ground for snow banks and bumps.

(BY THE WAY, That is a big doe)

But you dont overload it and with a 660 you can adjust the shocks in back and it has two shelves
so up front over the rack I put the heavy gear.  :happy1: Its not made for small ATV's

Mt it was a spike buck but a nice eater. :chef:

Forgot to say the main reason i like it all my gear is under the top no snow or rain on it.

  I like that.  :woot:

How many deer can you fit in that thing? Will there be enough room for all the ten point racks that will be attached to the deer? What does the front part look like? Is there a seat there for two up riding? Does that thing float or sink in the river?

I picked up a new foreman this fall and I'm trying to figure out what add ons I want to put on. the winch is a must.
 I was thinking about a basket rack but I don't like that they're stuck way out there all the time. it would be nice if they folded up forward for transportation. maybe I'll build one.
I want to make an auger rack that goes front to back instead of crossways so I can fit through the portages in canada.

maybe in a year I'll add tracks.

windshield and GPS would be nice to i think.
take a kid hunting and fishing!!

THWACK KILLS!!

For real deep snow I use the Max 11 six wheel drive to get where no one can go
