What I'm walking along the shore and I see that the door to your summer house is ajar, can I just move in?

even if it isn't survival and they don't plan to leave with pockets of lures, it would be kinda funny to see some kids all wide eyed and shocked.... nothing to say as they tucked their tails under their legs and left.

I always enjoyed pulling up to govt docks, in a brute of a mid-sixties, 34' herring skiff when the dock was full and then tieing up longside to the swankiest vessel and walking over it to the dock to do my on land business.

people actually leave things of value inside their shack?

I was thinking a bench and maybe a propane tank fab'd into a wood stove...

If anyone knows "Muskrat" from the arctic on Youtube, he has a great video of icefishing with a stick, a 3 foot string, and a spoon/hook.

They are just slamming inconnu left and right. his missus out fishes him by a large margin, hilarious

Very good attitude. If some chased folk away for using their shack then how would they feel if others watched as your abandoned shack get vandalized without interfering? Its nothing to do with these bystanders but I'm sure they would happily put themselves out there and stop any wrong doing

Same thing with a tree stand left on crown land.... If I see one I leave it alone. If I walk out to my stand and someone is in it I will polite let them them know I appreciate that they warmed the seat but please hop on down.... If I get attitude I start taking out the climbing pegs...

I'm not familiar with Muskrat, but only bought my first ice rod this year. I was taught to ice fish with my hands... i'm going modern i guess

If they were using it respectfully, cool.

If not, they better share their rum.
your shack is more of a "shelter" for the less fortunate

but do you get mad that they used it in the first place?

its one thing to just use someones shack or stand, and another to deny them entry when they do show up!

I hate it when people use my shack. Iv been ripped off too many times on sylvan lake. People will use my shack and stick my 2x4s in the hole and it freezes in so you can't drill a whole through it so you got to move your shack to drill your hole. My dad dropped me off at the shack and a few mins later some guy comes over harping on the door thinking there's nobody in there. So I let him in after almost breaking the door and when open the door it's a guy with his son. So I invite them to fish with me, being e had his kid with him otherwise I would have told him to get lost. I haven't put my shack on for 2 years now. I woundnt mind if they didn't keep shoving 2x4s or spruce down my holes.

Simply stated, you should not use someone else's property without their permission.

If you are fortunate to be given permission, treat it better than you would your own property.

Some guys might put on a sign "use respect" or leave a phone number to ask permission but it will only take one group of morons to ruin this person's trust in society.

Don't get me wrong - I wish it weren't that way ..... but today ...... that's where we are. People have changed.

Similar to this site, community can be a great and powerful thing. I go by do unto others right up until I'm given reason not to. If a "shanty town" is a community like this we each watch out for the other's shack and police violators as need be. I have had no problems w/mine to date.

Cheers.
x2, just leave a bottle of whisky on the chair. Use respect.

that's a rule to live by and save a life possibly. I ran equipment up north and I would leave my keys in the grader at night incase someone needed to keep warm till morning. I leave the shack open for that same reason.
f I'm not using it, go ahead. Fish your nuts off. After all, its only a shack!
