Eureka Apex 2XT Adventure 7-by 5-Foot Two-Person Tent
Customer Review: Did a great job on a tough hike
This tent performed very well on my 4 day winter hike on the Bartram Trail. Kept me comfortable through nights of freezing rain and high winds. Floor kept out water even when it built up along the sides of the tent (bad placement of tarp on my part). The vestibules were a great place to store gear out of the rain. As others stated, it was very easy to set up. The Cons that kept it from getting 5 stars. Minor leak along zipper seam on one of the vestibules. In strong wind, some water enters through the side vent even when closed. Like all mostly mesh tents it was a little bit of a mess to set up in the rain. Lastly it was a little too heavy for tough trails (seemed heavier than stated weight) These are minor flaws and I think I pushed this tent beyond it's intended design limits. For less extreme conditions I would highly recommend this tent.
Customer Review: Stood up well in high winds
I spent one night in this tent in my backyard to test it out. It just so happened that we had unusually high winds for us, sustained around 50MPH. When inside the tent I couldn't even tell it was windy other than the sound of the wind. There was no condensation build up in the night, and it's a great size. It was also super easy to set up. My last tent took me at least 40 minutes to set up and turned me off camping a bit. This will definitely motivate me to camp more. Great tent!
Being a state in the western part of the USA, Wyoming is known to be one of the best places to go for vacations, hiking, snowmobiling, hunting, and of course, fishing! A lot of people carefully plan to visit the state and get prepared to indulge in different hobbies whether from simple relaxation to any sport such as game fishing.
Wyoming is blessed with numerous lakes (4,200 beautiful lakes). These lakes are composed of over 300,000 acres or approximately 1,300 square kilometers of bodies of water. In addition to this, the state has an estimated 27,000 miles or approximately 43,000 kilometers of fishable rivers. It has almost 78 species of game and non-game fish.
The walleye is one of the interesting species that most anglers seek. However, it isn't that easy to catch it as its location is an important consideration. You have to be well oriented of the seasons where it is most prominent.
Mostly, the early season is the best time to catch a walleye. It is often told that a lake has to be understood because it has its own characteristics. Most walleye fish prefer little natural lakes rather than moving bodies of river water.
Take note of large sand flats. Most walleye spread out on these areas especially during the month of May. They lie freely on the top of the sand. This is due to their post offspring transition where most male walleye prefer to stay and feed on the site where they've actually spawned.
Considering this shallow sand setting, you have to be specific with your rig. The most chosen rig in this case is the live bait. The particular distance between any weight and your bait is often dictated by water clarity. Clear water lakes require around six to eight feet when we speak of hooks and sinkers. If the water is stained, you will need 30 inches between weights and baits.
As you can spot a group of walleye in the sand (which is mostly the case), try to tip the jig with any small fish. Some prefer minnows. Using a stand up head, let the jig rest on intermittently so that it can trigger bites as you start moving the jig again.
Another attractive spots for Wyoming walleye fishing are lakes with profound vegetation. Emerging weeds are very attractive for these fish. Look up for regions that are hard bottomed as these frequently have good weed flats. But this isn't applicable for early seasons which are considered to be low light periods. Weeds at this particular time of the year aren't well established.
