Default Clam ice fishing tents

Trying to find out who sells the Clam x400 thermal tents in AB/SK area. The xl4000t is starting to show some signs of wear after 6 years of use. Been good to me so looking to stay with the Clam brand.

I've been looking for a month. There's a place in Ontario Riverside Outdoors that sells them. And ships into Alberta

If you find yourself having too hard of a time sourcing a clam, consider an otter.
Great quality. Will be my next purchase after seeing them in action and the reviews.

No kidding. I was looking at some Otter flip overs there, the price was very good but $700 plus for shipping. The guy from Riverside is much more affordable

There's a nice one right now on Manitoba Fishing Forum, but it's in Winnipeg.

Looked at the otter, but they are dark inside. Kinda like the clam lets more light through. Might have to go with one though.

Call Fishin Hole. They can order almost anything from the manufacturer. Likely will not have a shipping charge if they have an order in.

They have been good ordering stuff for me.

the model the OP is looking at doesn't come with a sleigh according to the features...I could be missing something though?

https://shop.clamoutdoors.com/x400-t...b-shelter.html

it weighs the same as the one I bought shipped for free...

Looking at the pop up as spend nights in the tent and find it the right size vs keeping warm. The clam also has 900 denier vs 600 and is 6" taller. Will try Fishing Hole. Thanks all for feedback

Talked to the guys at the fishing hole in Edmonton today. They have no problem bringing in Clam tents. Mentioned if they can get it on one of their normal order runs there would be no shipping costs. Like others have said Fishing hole provides great service
