Default Eskimo Quickfish 3
I really like my Eskimo Quickfish 3. Easy up and down. Plenty of room. Durable; well into my second season with no problems and I'm kind of hard on my equipment.

The number one key thing you want to look for, which most have now a days, is a zippable front door so you don't loose all of your heat. You don't want to have to lift the tent up every time you get out for a tipup or to take a piss.

I highly recommend shopping craigslist as well. You can save yourself quite a bit of money depending what your looking for for bait, booze and everything else.

Otter is the toughest, Clam has the nicest Tent but for hardware and the customer service is "Crap. Frabril is another tough sled. IMHO
