    Default Lanterns for Ice Fishing


    Thinking I wasn't going to ice fish much anymore, I gave my old Coleman to my nephew.

    But I've since moved to a lake and there is ice today and guys are setting up their shelters and I feel the need to get out there!

    So now I need a lantern.

    My question is...electric lantern or fuel? I've never used the electrics.

    Any opinions?

    Thanks!

    The new LED's lanterns are way brighter and the batteries last a lots longer than the battery lights use to last with older lights. I don't ice fish but have used the LED's camping and when the electricity went out at home.
    Be safe and good luck fishing

    I have a Coleman Rechargeable Lantern that works real well. No fumes no spilling works good. The propane lanterns work good also.

    Coleman propane if you like a little extra heat with your stove.We were out late yeaterday/evening in our old flip over non insulated house at sunset I had the stove maxed and it was a little chilly yet,turned on the lantern and it made it nice a warm.
    Unfortunately the fishing was less then stellar and the half mile walk back was a little chilly at -19.lol
